Warwick Evidence is advertising for a Research Fellow (Systematic Reviewer) in Clinical Effectiveness.

Please note this post is also being advertised at Senior Research Fellow level, with one appointment being made.

You will join Warwick Medical School, Division of Health Sciences to support the expanding work programme of Warwick Evidence, one of nine health technology assessment and evidence synthesis teams in the UK. The main focus of your work will be in providing research support in clinical effectiveness and epidemiology to health technology assessments for the National Institute for Health Research Health Technology Assessment (NIHR HTA) programme, for the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) and for other policy makers. You will undertake reviews for single and multiple technology appraisals (STAs and MTAs), diagnostic assessments (DAs) and other review processes. You will undertake other systematic reviews and evidence syntheses and contribute to methodological research. There will be opportunities for assisting in teaching activities.

You will work with a multidisciplinary team of information specialists, health economists, statisticians, modellers and systematic reviewers in appraising evidence on the clinical and cost effectiveness of health technologies, including drugs, devices and diagnostics. Work undertaken will directly inform health policy at the national level.

You will have a good first degree and a PhD in a relevant field. You will have experience of undertaking systematic reviews and of report writing coupled with an ability to produce high quality research relevant to the health sciences. You will enjoy working as part of a team and meeting tight deadlines. Knowledge and experience of undertaking HTA in a specialist area of interest to Warwick Medical School (e.g. survival analysis, pharmacology, network meta-analysis) will be valuable. You will be a good communicator, be highly organised and accurate in your approach to work, and have excellent writing skills.
