Medical Statistician

Are you looking for an excellent opportunity to develop your career and further broaden your expertise through methodological research within a supportive and stimulating environment?

The Clinical Trials Research Unit within the Leeds Institute of Clinical Trials Research (LICTR) is an international leader in the field of clinical trials. The Unit is one of the largest in the UK and conducts national and international randomised and early phase clinical trials in a variety of clinical fields. 

Our main aim is to develop and support novel and efficient trials to change clinical practice for the better. Our past results and current research have already helped to do this. 

You will join a large, well-established group of statisticians and will work on trials designed to answer questions of real importance that will contribute to improved care pathways and patient outcomes across a range of long-term health conditions of strategic importance to NHS, patients and social care.

You will work closely, interactively and collaboratively with a multidisciplinary project team, including statisticians, programmers, clinicians, health economists, health service researchers and trial managers. 

We welcome applications from MSc students in the final year of their studies.
