An exciting opportunity has arisen for experienced nurses to join the Joint Clinical Research Facilities (JCRF).   The post holders should have recent clinical experience in an acute setting.  For the senior post substantial experience ideally in an acute setting, or research experience would be expected.  The successful candidates will be joining a team of experience research nurses and administrative staff working in two well equipped clinical facilities.

Usual working hours Monday – Friday (very occasional weekend and night shifts).

The JCRF undertakes clinical studies commissioned by commercial pharmaceutical companies working on studies involving new drugs (not yet on the market) across many disease areas including Diabetes, Multiple Sclerosis, Coronary Artery Disease and Renal Disease.  We also trial a number of new devices that are in early development usually for measuring blood glucose or troponin. 

The department is a joint venture with Swansea Bay Health Board and Swansea University and is a department within the Medical Faculty of the University. Staff will have a substantive university appointment with a SBUHB honorary contract as they will be closely involved with patients on a daily basis.

The Post holders dependent on experience will work across a range of clinical research studies, including identification and recruitment of patients – this can be in an Out Patient context or in-patient.  Training will be given to suitable candidates in respect of clinical trial procedures and regulatory processes.

Both roles involve an in depth knowledge of clinical trials and regulatory procedures ICH/GCP and relevant EU Clinical Trials Directives – successful candidates will have appropriate training.

The post holders will work closely with all members of the research team including the study investigator (consultant in the relevant field), ensuring protocols, treatments set within the protocol are strictly adhered to.  They will ensure at all times the confidentiality and safety of patients and be able to work to tight timelines.

The successful candidates must have a degree (registered nurse) with post qualification experience ideally in an acute medical setting.   Advantages would be ICH/GCP training and advanced skills in clinical research for the higher posts and have experience in managing and co-ordinating data or information to facilitate research activity. The ability to  apply specific knowledge to contribute to one or more research projects in specialised work areas i.e. Multiple Sclerosis, Cardiology, Diabetes, Renal disease and other health disease areas would be advantageous.
