37.5 Hours
UK Transplant is part of NHS Blood and Transplant (NHSBT), a Special Health
Authority within the NHS, responsible for managing the Bio Products
Laboratory, National Blood Service and UK Transplant. NHSBT is responsible
for optimising the supply of blood, organs, plasma and tissues and raising
the quality, effectiveness and efficiency of blood and transplant services.
A vacancy has arisen for a statistician in the Statistics and Audit
Directorate of UK Transplant. This Directorate provides a comprehensive
statistical service to the transplant community in the UK and the Republic
of Ireland, by undertaking analyses to address particular issues in organ
transplantation, monitoring and evaluating organ allocation procedures and
patient survival rates, producing regular reports on transplant activity,
and responding to enquiries and requests for information from government,
health authorities and the media.
This post gives an opportunity for recent or potential graduates from a
Masters programme in statistics, or an undergraduate programme with a
substantial statistical component, to join a team of 16 statisticians and
become involved in a wide range of statistical activities. The post will
involve collaborative work with clinicians and others working in organ
transplantation, and so the individual appointed will have excellent
communication skills. The ability to work to deadlines, both individually
and as part of a team, is essential and some knowledge of the SAS software
is desirable.
Informal enquiries about the post can be made to Dave Collett, the Director
of Statistics and Audit (email: [log in to unmask]
or telephone 0117 975 7546).
Applications can be submitted on-line via the NHS jobs website at

Statistician I with a location of Bristol.
