Description
The chemotherapy clinical research nurse role will be part of the research workforce within the Trust and will support the delivery of high-quality research studies. Our portfolio of oncology and haematology studies is increasing and we are therefore looking for a motivated, skilful and knowledgeable Systemic Anti Canter Therapy (SACT) trained nurse who works well as part of a team. Knowledge of clinical research is favourable but not essential.
The postholder will be an autonomous practitioner working within the multidisciplinary team to deliver in-house, national and international clinical trials. Whilst the primary base will be at the Queen Elizabeth Queen Mother hospital within the Clinical Research Facility (CRF), the post holder will be expected to work alongside the East Kent Cancer Research Centre, based at the Kent and Canterbury Hospital which will require hybrid working across all sites. This will require frequent travel between sites.
The post holder will provide specialised clinical nursing care, with a specific focus on the delivery of systemic anti-cancer therapies within a clinical trial setting.
PREVIOUS APPLICANTS NEED NOT APPLY
Responsibilities will include education of patients and colleagues, the coordination of care for patients on clinical trials, collection, processing and shipping of biological samples, trial data collection, the administration of SACT and investigational medicinal products, collection and reporting of clinical trial data, collection and reporting of unexpected side effects.
The post holder will have sufficient skills and experience to practice independently and within the wider team, building up a specialised knowledge relating to the conduct of clinical trials, therapies and related diseases.
Although the post holder will focus on oncology and haematology studies you would be also be expected to support other trials with patients or healthy volunteers in the CRF.
The core working hours are 8-6pm but some evenings, weekend and bank holiday working may be required dependant on the need of the service.
We are one of the largest hospital trusts in England, with five hospitals and community clinics serving a local population of around 800,000 people. Our vision is 'great healthcare from great people'. Everything we do is guided by our values: 'People feel cared for, safe, respected and confident that we are making a difference’. We have a new way of working at East Kent Hospitals, called 'We care'. It's about empowering frontline staff to lead improvements day-to-day. We're looking for compassionate people to be part of our improvement journey for the patients, families and carers we care for every day.
Please note that if you require a Certificate of Sponsorship to work in the UK you must declare this on your application form, even if you currently have a certificate of sponsorship or a work permit for another role and are already working in the country. Please note we are only able to sponsor candidates for a Skilled Worker Visa for roles that are eligible at the time of application.
