About this position
The University of Birmingham is seeking a Project Officer to support research and knowledge transfer within the Birmingham Centre for Observational Studies (BiCOPS), the Birmingham Clinical Trials Unit, and the College of Medicine and Health Research Programmes and Infrastructure team.
The post holder will contribute to the PANORAMA study, which focuses on optimising post-discharge care pathways after acute pancreatitis through the evaluation of health service utilisation and patient outcomes. Working in the Public Health Building in Edgbaston, the Project Officer will help ensure that the study progresses against funder milestones and will work with academic staff, the Birmingham Clinical Trials Unit, BiCOPS colleagues, and programme partners.
The research environment is collaborative and multidisciplinary. It brings together surgeons, anaesthetists, nurses, medical students, other healthcare professionals, policy makers, epidemiologists, economists, patients, community members, NHS Trusts, charities, research institutions, and funders. The role therefore provides an opportunity to support applied health research within a broad network of clinical, public health, and research stakeholders.
Working with Project and Programme Managers, the Project Officer will support dissemination of project outcomes, preparation of progress reports, project planning, milestone and key performance indicator tracking, stakeholder communication, risk escalation, resource and budget administration, communications planning, project evaluation, and the delivery of smaller project workstreams. The position is suited to someone interested in research administration, clinical trials coordination, public health projects, and the effective translation of research into practice.
