You will develop clear, user friendly guidance materials, support site staff with accurate and consistent data collection in line with study protocols, and maintain excellent working relationships with internal and external stakeholders.

Working closely with the COPE Senior Project Officer and research team, you will report to the Chief Principal Investigator and contribute to the smooth, compliant and efficient delivery of this important national trial.

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with confidence engaging diverse stakeholders
