Postdoctoral Research Associate in NIHR and Social Care Delivery Research - Grade 7

We are seeking to appoint a Postdoctoral Research Associate, wishing to contribute to an exciting mixed-methods evidence synthesis project with clinical application, funded by NIHR Health and Social Care Delivery Research.

This post will be based in the University of Liverpool Management School, working alongside Professor Charlotte Croft, to synthesise the evidence from an organisation studies perspective. A key part of the role will also involve working with alongside Professor Fiona Rowe and Dr Lauren Hepworth within the VISION Research Group in the Department of Primary Care and Mental Health within the VISION Research Group. The project provides an excellent opportunity to undertake high quality research within a stimulating multi-disciplinary context working directly with a team from four universities, as well as healthcare and local government organisations. The group is multi-disciplinary and includes considerable experience in eye care service delivery, evidence synthesis, organisational theory, health economics and stakeholder engagement. The project comprises two mixed-method, comprehensive service delivery evidence syntheses. The evidence synthesise will focus on two areas, adults and children with visual impairment due to acquired brain injury and children with cerebral visual impairment, that address how patients are best informed, assessed and offered person-centred, effective care through the eye care and wider integrated care pathways.

The position is 0.5 FTE (2.5 days per week) for 6-months on a salary commensurate with the role of Research Associate in a Russell Group university. You will have a PhD in the field of business and management (submitted or awarded).

More details are available on request and informal enquiries can be made to Professor Charlotte Croft at the University of Liverpool Management School: charlotte.croft@liverpool.ac.uk.
