Hello all,
The European Stroke Organisation (ESO) and the Cochrane Stroke Group are urgently seeking a Guideline Support Development Person.
Specifications: Half time (0.5 FTE)
Salary: £20,000 to £25,000
Location: Flexible
Application closing date: 14 October 2016
The European Stroke Organisation (ESO) is a non-for-profit organisation that aims to improve stroke care in Europe and worldwide. As part of this effort, the development of Guidelines by ESO is a major cornerstone. The Guideline Committee (GC) of ESO has a central role in this process and has recently published a standard operating procedure (SOP; available here), which ensures that each ESO Guideline Document is developed according to the highest standards.
ESO, in association with the Cochrane Stroke Group, is looking for a person who will provide multi-level support to the ESO working groups during the development of ESO Guideline Documents.
The successful candidate is expected to have expertise in:
* developing and performing complex and comprehensive systematic literature searches;
* importing data and performing meta-analyses using Cochrane’s Review Manager software;
* assisting with identifying and summarising all relevant evidence in evidence profiles using the GRADE Profiler software (as described in the SOP);
* assisting in the grading of available evidence (as described in the SOP);
* interdisciplinary communications with technical staff from different countries and backgrounds: all communication and work-related activities will be in English.
Ideally, the successful candidate will have expertise in all aforementioned points. However, ESO will also consider applications from interested candidates who do not have expertise in all these points.
