Description

Medicines Management & Pharmacy Services are looking for an Embedded Researcher to support applied research and change our research culture from an optional extra to part of core service delivery.

This is a fantastic opportunity for a highly applied health services researcher (or similar) to make a practical contribution to improving patient care.

The embedded researcher's role is to both mobilise established evidence and to create new knowledge through pragmatic evaluation.

The role is wide ranging, and the successful applicant will be expected to negotiate their contribution to the research initiative once in post and to agree a role which is both ambitious and achievable.

This is likely to include the following roles:

working with and alongside a range of people across organisational boundaries; focusing on knowledge and bringing people from different disciplines and backgrounds together; being the supportive facilitator between research and practice, making research more accessible to staff as a topic and showing them how they can use existing research and evidence or create research and evidence themselves.
