Clinical research is an essential element in ensuring new treatments are rapidly and safely translated to clinical use to transform the lives of people with cystic fibrosis. Nine years ago, the Trust set up an ambitious programme of work to broaden the reach of trials to all people with cystic fibrosis in the UK, the Clinical Trials Accelerator Platform (CTAP). CTAP is a national cystic fibrosis clinical trials network which has created the infrastructure (network of CTAP centres) and funded additional research capacity (trial coordinators) to support NHS Cystic Fibrosis centres to grow their clinical trial portfolio. This in turn has increased the number of clinical trial opportunities for the UK CF community, and improved access to the newest therapies for people living with cystic fibrosis.
An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Regional Network Coordinator to join the CTAP coordinating team as maternity cover. The postholder will oversee the coordination of the four CTAP regional clinical trial networks which sit within the main CTAP programme. This role will play an important role in overseeing the smooth running of the CTAP regional networks in addition to providing support and guidance relating to the referral of patients for clinical trial participation.
To be the right candidate, you will:
- Have experience of working within the area of clinical trials in some capacity for the NHS, a university, research funder or a commercial sponsor
- Have an in-depth understanding of the clinical research landscape, particularly in the context of a national/disease-specific clinical trials network
- Understand the relevant regulations surrounding clinical trials in the UK
- Have strong project management and communication skills
We offer a range of benefits including flexible working, 30 days annual leave plus bank holidays (this will be pro-rata for part time staff), opportunities for learning and development, pension, healthcare cash plan and more.
Closing date for completed applications is midnight on Sunday 3 August 2025
In view of the summer holiday period, interviews have been scheduled for Tuesday 9 and Wednesday 10 September 2025
We reserve the right to bring forward or extend the closing date if necessary. Therefore, if you are interested in this role, please submit your application as early as possible.

Yateley Industries is a unique and ambitious charity which has provided employment in our factory, training, accommodation and community engagement for disabled and neurodivergent adults for over 90 years. Our mission is to create a more inclusive society where everyone can thrive.
Under the new management, the charity has developed additional activities, including Community Hub, Food pantry and Café, and is looking to reestablish the design and printing roots of the organisation. We have a new set of trustees, a dynamic leadership team, a re-energised workforce and a strategy for the development of our site.
While our history is long, our fundraising journey has only recently begun. The dedicated fundraising function was only established two years ago and in that short time, we've grown income from under £60,000 to £300-350,000 per year. That’s a testament to what’s possible here - and it’s just the beginning.
An opportunity has arisen to join Yateley’s entrepreneurial management team in the position of Trusts & Grants Manager, taking over and further developing on the strong foundations that have been laid in the last few years. There is still much to build and plenty of challenges to navigate but we believe this is a once in a career opportunity to shape a high-impact, high-potential function from the inside out.
If you're ambitious and want to leave a legacy, this is your moment.
Please submit an up to date CV and a Cover Letter of no more than two sides of A4, outlining why you are a good fit for the role. Make sure to reference your skills and experience to the Job Description.
