The CTRU has a strong methodological portfolio associated with clinical trial research. Our aim is to support the challenge of changing clinical practice for the better and our past results and current work has already helped to do this –

and patient care. We are keen to recruit statisticians with an interest in complex intervention evaluations, including cluster randomised trials or with experience of using large routine data sets.
If you want to make a difference and be part of a successful, highly talented, multi-disciplinary team, then we want you. All statistical roles offer excellent opportunities for career development within a well-established statistical team
and a chance to further broaden your expertise through methodological research. Opportunities also exist for PhD registration. With a postgraduate qualification with a major statistical component, you will have excellent interpersonal, communication and
time management skills and be able to work well within a multidisciplinary team. We welcome applications from individuals still to complete their studies.
