This role may qualify for a Skilled Worker visa
SOC 2434 is an eligible occupation, but we classified this role with low confidence (41% match). If the code is right — and The University of Manchester is a licensed sponsor — it should qualify, but double-check the occupation eligibility rules against the actual role.
About the role
The NIHR School for Primary Care Research (SPCR) is launching a development fellowship programme to build nursing leadership in commercial research across primary care and wider care settings. The programme provides opportunities to enhance skills in commercial research delivery, academic development, strategic systems leadership, and cross-sector collaboration. A total of 11 part time Fellows (0.5 FTE) will be appointed across SPCR member departments plus Newcastle and Birmingham.
Fellowships will be undertaken at 0.5 FTE, can run for up to 18 months, ending no later than 31 March 2028.
Fellows will have academic support from SPCR host departments and have access to wider NIHR SPCR training resources and be part of the wider SPCR network. They will also form a peer-support group, working with an experienced academic to enhance their career development. They will also gain new skills in commercial research.
Fellows will network widely with regional primary care, promoting and supporting the uptake of the commercial portfolio.
Although you will be seconded/employed to the university, you will be working with the Regional Research Delivery Network (RRDN) North West and will be jointly supervised by the University and the RRDN.

The offer must clear both the general threshold and the SOC 2434 going rate of £41,700. New-entrant and shortage discounts can lower it.
