Job summary

PURPOSE

We are looking for an organised, forward-thinking problem solver to our friendly growing team, to provide data management to GPs and practice staff across our network of highly research active GP surgeries in Cornwall. To enable safe, coherent, clinical research within the primary care setting.

The role would suit someone with previous experience or a keen interest in healthcare where medical terminology would be advantageous but not essential as full training can be given.

We can provide flexible working hours, NHS Pension, free parking and possibility of some remote working once fully trained.

Main duties of the job

To manage patient visit information, transcribe data into online data systems and work with our sponsors to resolve queries. This requires building good working relationships and an eye for detail.

You will look at patients medical history, medications and follow up on any new issues, working closely with our GPs and staff across our 9 practices.

About us

Our Research Hub is based at Connor Downs Surgery where we coordinate and support 8 other practices across Cornwall. Our small friendly team work together to grow our portfolio of studies to offer our patients options and treatments above and beyond usual NHS services.

We thrive when our clinics are full and enjoy supporting each other so being flexible and adaptable to change is really important as no day is ever the same.
