About the Role
The Research Nurse will play a key role in ensuring that all research within the department safeguards patient well-being and is conducted in accordance with Good Clinical Practice (GCP) and the Medicines for Human Use (Clinical Trial) Regulations 2004 and Amended Regulations 2006.

About you
You will be a dedicated and compassionate nurse with strong communication skills and the ability to work flexibly across disciplines. You should be committed to maintaining high standards of patient care and research integrity, with excellent organisational skills to manage multiple clinical research projects effectively. A patient-centred approach and the ability to advocate for patients throughout their participation in clinical trials are vital.

Qualifications
Registered Nurse with relevant clinical research training or experience. Knowledge of Good Clinical Practice (GCP) and clinical trial regulations is required. Additional qualifications in research nursing or related fields would be advantageous.
