STATISTICIAN - WALTHAM CENTRE FOR PET NUTRITION
This opportunity is based at the Waltham Centre for Pet Nutrition (WCPN) in
Leicestershire. The position will be on a permanent basis, with a package
including non-contributory pension, medical insurance and relocation
assistance if appropriate.
You will ideally have a biological background with an MSc or equivalent
experience in statistics and data analysis. Computer skills are a
prerequisite for this job. In addition to academic qualifications, you must
possess excellent communication skills and should also be flexible and
willing to work as part of a large team. As this work will include design
and analysis of complex biological trials, previous statistical experience
within a research background would be preferred. Commitment, integrity and
a high level of self-motivation are also essential.
On a day-to-day basis you will provide support for a number of areas of
research at WCPN. This will include advising on complex experimental design
and data analysis on various studies involving non-invasive research on
cats, dogs and birds. A sound understanding of biological studies and data
modelling is therefore a key criterion for this job. WCPN also engages
external statistical consultancy and you will liaise closely with this
external service in order to prioritise work and progress the data analysis
at WCPN. Some occasional visits to The University of Strathclyde may be
required to facilitate this working relationship.
SALARY: 21,500 p.a.
CLOSING DATE: 1 October 1999
We are an equal-opportunity employer.
