We wish to appoint a Research Fellow/Senior Research Assistant for a duration of four months full time/part time equivalent to work within a research team to conduct a mixed methods evaluation of the Supporting Long Covid Care (SLCC) Webtool: https://long-covid-care.org.uk/.

The purpose of the SLCC tool is to support people to get the care and recognition they need while also acknowledging and aiming to mitigate the stigma faced by people with Long Covid. It aims to do this by facilitating conversations with professionals, friends, family and others who may be relied on for support. A mixed methods evaluation of the tool has been planned.

The post holder will manage the day-to-day running of the evaluation. Responsibilities will include conducting, analysing and writing up qualitative interviews and an online survey, supervised and supported by the SLCC research team.

The post holder will be hybrid and based at the School of Primary Care, Population Sciences and Medical Education, Faculty of Medicine, University of Southampton.

You will have a relevant PhD, Master degree or equivalent research-related qualifications in a health/ public health/ epidemiology/ healthcare or social science related subject, and experience in qualitative and quantitative data skills in health research.

Applications will be considered from candidates who are working towards or nearing completion of a relevant PhD qualification.  The title of Research Fellow will be applied upon completion of PhD.  Prior to the qualification being awarded the title of Senior Research Assistant will be given.

Informal enquiries are encouraged; please contact Professor Nisreen Alwan (n.a.alwan@soton.ac.uk).
