Main duties of the job

This is an exciting opportunity to join our team in the NIHR Clinical Research Facility (CRF) at the Southampton University Hospitals NHS Trust.

The successful applicant will be a key member of the administrative team who will be kept very busy, primarily supporting the quality of information recorded on our in-house activity management system. You will work closely with our nursing, clinical and administrative teams to help ensure activity is recorded accurately and on time, as well as providing training and day-to-day user support. 

Previous admin experience in a busy working environment is essential, as is being approachable, confident in communicating with different teams, and willing to build good working relationships within the department.
We are looking for a team player with excellent communication and organisational skills, who is flexible in their approach to work and is competent and experienced with a range of IT. The postholder will need to work independently in a diverse and interesting office environment, using their initiative to prioritise workload, multi-task, and maintain confidentiality.

The post-holder will join a friendly and supportive clinical research service that values the contribution of all staff.

Working for our organisation

As one of the largest acute teaching Trusts in England, we offer learning and development opportunities to help you achieve the career you aspire to. UHS is rated ‘Good’ by the CQC and in the latest national NHS Staff Survey, we were in the top 10 acute trusts for staff engagement and for staff recommending the hospital as a place to work or receive care. 

 We support flexible working and will consider requests taking into account the needs of the service. UHS employees are able to access a range of NHS discounts, are entitled to a minimum of 35 days paid holiday (pro rata), and we offer a generous pension scheme.

 Southampton is an attractive place to live and work situated on the south coast, with an international airport and direct trains to London. The New Forest National Park and beaches of the Jurassic coast are also right on our doorstep. The city offers living costs 30% lower than London and 17 schools rated outstanding by Ofsted.

 We believe that using technology wisely shows strong time management and commitment to innovation. However, personalising 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.
