YORK HEALTH ECONOMICS CONSORTIUM 
York Health Economics Consortium (YHEC) at the University of York is looking
to recruit three Research Consultants. 

YHEC is a health economics research and consultancy organisation owned by
the University of York.  It provides a wide range of research and
consultancy services, including economic modelling, economic evaluation and
applied health services research.  Organisations commissioning work include
the Department of Health, NICE, NHS Trusts, other public sector research
organisations (e.g. NHS Institute for Innovation and Improvement ) and a
wide range of pharmaceutical and health care companies. YHEC often
collaborates with other University Departments in York and beyond, as well
as other health research organisations. Further details can be found at
www.yhec.co.uk. 

Three vacancies currently exist: 

Health Economist/Modeller  (Ref:0801) 

This is a new role within the company and is a direct result of continued
expansion of economic modelling.  The position will be expected to
contribute to economic evaluations commissioned by both public sector
organisations and pharmaceutical/medical technology manufacturers. The post
holder will lead the development of discrete economic modelling projects and
take responsibility for specific elements within larger projects.  It is
also expected that the post holder can take a lead on the development of
statistical expertise within the unit and advise on the use of computer
packages for modelling.  Applicants are expected to have experience of
economic modelling, preferably in a healthcare environment.

Research Consultant (Ref:0802) 

The main purpose of the job is to contribute to research teams working on
applied health economics or health services research projects commissioned
by a range of clients. Typical tasks might include contributing to evidence
synthesis, literature reviews, the development of economic models and the
preparation of reports. Staff will have the opportunity to work with both
public and private sector organisations. Research staff are expected to have
direct contact with clients and contribute towards generating research
income for the department. 

Research Consultant: Information Services (Ref:0803) 

Recently, YHEC has appointed Julie Glanville to develop Information Services
as a new area of business within the company.  The post holder will work
with Julie to expand this new business area and will carry out literature
searches and identify data, review health economics and clinical
effectiveness evidence and summarise evidence. The projects will be
commissioned by both public sector organisations and pharmaceutical/medical
technology manufacturers.   The role also offers opportunities to assist in
the organisation and delivery of training events.

Competitive salary packages are offered.  Further details on all roles are
available from www.yhec.co.uk or by emailing [log in to unmask]  

The closing date is  Wednesday 18th June at 5pm.
