About this role

Applicants need not have experience in managing others, and experience within the NHS or wider health field is not required. Of most importance is a good grasp of applied modelling approaches underpinned by degree-level qualification(s) in a quantitative discipline. Experience of coding in statistical languages, especially in R, is strongly desirable. The role-holder should have an open and inquisitive mind and be prepared to think innovatively and creatively. Experience or ability to facilitate training and development is also desirable. Flexible working options are available, subject to a required minimum 50% working in the central Bristol office. Occasional travel to sites around the South West may be expected.
