This is an exciting opportunity to join one of the largest of the National Cancer Research Institute Accredited Trials Units in the UK. The Cancer Research Clinical Trials Unit (CRCTU) has an extensive portfolio of phase I, II and III clinical trials in adults and children covering a wide range of cancer disease sites. The CRCTU is actively involved in researching statistical methodology related to clinical trials and associated translational research. Opportunities exist for members of the team to pursue their own research interests and carry out postgraduate qualifications.
Biostatisticians play a central role in the Unit, actively liaising with clinical investigators, contributing to the design and conduct of clinical trials, being responsible for interim and final analysis of clinical trial data and having a key role in the presentation and publication of results. As academic members of the University, Biostatisticians contribute to teaching at undergraduate and postgraduate level. The Principal Biostatistician will be expected to develop and manage a portfolio of trials and to manage and mentor the Biostatisticians in the Unit. S/He will lead successful funding bids, negotiate new business and provide expert advice and mentorship regarding clinical trials on a national level.
Ideally we are seeking a candidate for a Grade 9 senior role within the Unit, but candidates with strong potential to contribute to the Unit would be considered for a Grade 8 post. Please can you specify on your application form what role you are applying for.
Informal enquiries can be made to Prof Keith Wheatley ([log in to unmask]) or Prof Cindy Billingham ([log in to unmask])
The closing date is 10 Sept 2013.
