About the Role

This is more than just a technical role. You’ll be the go-to person for building and validating research databases used in clinical trials, particularly those regulated by the MHRA. You’ll work closely with the Research IT Services and Data Warehouse Team, guiding database compliance from concept through delivery. A big part of the role involves training others, reviewing system use, and leading Sponsor oversight. There’s a clear opportunity here to shape how clinical data is handled across two major UK institutions.

It’s ideal for someone who’s already built compliant databases and now wants to step into a leadership space, influence data practices, and make a difference to how health research is delivered.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead design, testing, and validation of clinical research databases that meet MHRA compliance
• Drive optimisation of tools like REDCap, ensuring efficient and ethical data capture
• Oversee multiple live projects, hitting key milestones with strong documentation
• Provide Sponsor oversight for clinical trials and ensure compliance with GCP
• Write and review complex Requirement Specification Documents and SOPs
• Select and assess vendors offering MHRA-compliant systems
• Collaborate across university and NHS teams to keep standards high

Disclosure and Barring Service Check

This role requires a standard Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check due to its involvement with sensitive research data and systems.
