We are looking for an enthusiastic health economist to join our ambitious and fast-growing team at the Centre for Health Economics at Warwick (CHEW).

The primary focus of the role will be to conduct economic evaluations alongside large multi-centre clinical trials.

Research will be disseminated through high-quality journal publications and reports, informing policy at the national and international level. The post includes a range of opportunities, including further training and help to develop a future portfolio of work.

You will have experience in conducting economic evaluations and use of suitable statistical software (STATA and/or R). You should hold (or been close to completing) a PhD in health economics or a similar relevant background. Previous experience of within-trial economic evaluation would be welcome.

If you are near submission of your PhD, or have not yet had it conferred, any offers of employment will be made at Research Assistant level, at the highest spinal point of pay grade 5 (£34,610 per annum).

Upon receipt of evidence confirming the successful award of your PhD, you will be promoted to Research Fellow, at the lowest spinal point of grade 6 (£35,608 per annum).
