National Specialty and Setting Leads Assistant x3

The University of Leeds has been chosen by the UK government to lead the National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR) Research Delivery Network Coordinating Centre (RDNCC) and will be joined by 12 new Regional Research Delivery Networks (RRDNs), hosted by NHS organisations across the country to form the NIHR Research Delivery Network (RDN). The new NIHR RDN will operate as one unified organisation across England, balancing regional context, expertise and leadership with national coordination and strategy involving government policymakers. The RDNCC will work across England’s health and care system, with staff in all settings, to support the effective and efficient initiation and delivery of research.

You will play a vital and active role as part of the Strategic Development Directorate. You will be responsible for providing administrative support, working flexibly across the National Specialty and Setting team. You will perform a range of duties which include handling communications, drafting correspondence, managing email inboxes, entering data and using database systems. Your duties will also include diary management, travel arrangements, preparing reports and materials for meetings and events. Additionally, you will support the team in activities that further the strategic development of the Specialty or Setting.

You will work collaboratively with colleagues within the RDNCC and liaise with other stakeholders as required. You will provide mutual support to colleagues in your team and across the RDNCC and will be positive and flexible in the way you approach your work to support the organisation-wide shift in ways of working and culture through the period of transformation and beyond.

This role may require some national travel.
