Main duties of the job

Do you want to make a difference?  

Are you looking for a new and different career pathway whilst maintaining and developing clinical and research delivery skills?  We have a unique opportunity for enthusiastic Band 5 Nurses with Oncology experience and valid NMC registration to come and join our Research Team to begin or further a career in clinical research delivery.

No research experience is necessary as all training will be provided by our dedicated research education team; you will undergo a comprehensive induction and full research delivery training with ongoing training in a supportive environment. We are interested in applicants with sound clinical experience and a keen willingness to learn. 

The research that we conduct at UHS is focused on the holistic approach to patient care and significantly contributes to the future progress of health care for all.

We truly make a difference to an individual's care and experience within UHS. We strive to ensure that research is considered as a treatment option for all eligible patients; closely working with clinical teams and within patients' clinical pathways to ensure that research opportunities and our research teams are expanding.

Working for our organisation

University Hospital Southampton is one of England's largest acute teaching Trusts, offering a wide range of learning and development opportunities to support your career aspirations.

Located on the south coast with an international airport and direct rail links to London, Southampton offers an ideal setting to live and work, with the New Forest, South Downs and Jurassic Coast. 

We believe that using technology wisely shows strong time management and commitment to innovation. However, personalizing your recruitment application to highlight your unique skills and experiences is crucial. Relying too heavily on generic, AI-generated content instead of drawing from your own strengths and accomplishments may lead to your application being rejected if multiple candidates present identical or similar information.

At UHS we’re committed to providing a flexible working environment where possible. Whether you are balancing family, study, or your wellbeing with your career, we want to support you so you can help our patients.

At UHS, we proudly champion individuality, recognizing that outstanding care is only possible with a diverse, inclusive team. We’re committed to creating an anti-racist, anti-discriminatory environment where everyone feels valued, safe, and empowered to make a meaningful impact in our communities. We welcome applicants of all backgrounds, identities, and experiences to join us in building a healthcare community where everyone can belong, thrive, and contribute.
