Application process

If you would like to apply for this position, please send a one-page cover letter and two-page CV via the application method below, by 6th July 2020. Exceptional candidates may be interviewed and appointed before this time.

Please note that only short-listed candidates will be contacted and applications without a covering letter will not be considered. All applicants must have either EU status or right of employment within the UK.

ABOUT THE ROLE

Our Data & Analytics Manager is a new senior management position in the IBD Registry that reflects both our fast growth and increasing maturity. The primary function of this role is to manage the effective collection, curation and utilisation of clinical data, surgical data, patient reported outcomes and other relevant data.  The goal is to ensure quality IBD data is available to support our goals in quality improvement, service evaluation, pharmacovigilance / post-marketing surveillance and eventually research. You will especially play a key role in the curation, transformation and linkage of the IBD datasets required for the Hub with the Cambridge data specialists.

You will be part of a small and growing and highly collaborative team, reporting directly to and working closely with the CEO, as well as with clinical and academic data specialists including our Academic Lead, a doctor and senior academic in the Health Data department of the University of Liverpool.

ABOUT YOU

To be successful in this role you will be a delivery-focused problem-solver, both organised and adaptable, with massive attention to details and a practical hands-on style. You will have significant experience in data management across the data lifecycle, including ETL (using scripting languages such as Python, C#, JSON, XML), databases (primarily MySQL) and analytics environments (such as R/R Studio).  You will have a strong academic qualification record, showing a disciplined numerate background as a foundation for your later experience in data.  Ideally, you will have come from the healthcare or pharmaceutical industries, or as an alternative from a highly-regulated sector where both data protection and delivery are critical. You may have gained your experience in a large consultancy or in a start-up environment; in either case, your most important attributes will be your rigour in thinking, readiness to learn and your 'can do’ mindset.

Above all, you need to believe in our mission and want to join us to make a difference: our small team makes a big difference in IBD across the UK and this needs to be more than ‘just a job’ for you.

Jubilee Debt Campaign is recruiting a Digital Campaigner to lead our digital campaigning and communications work.

This is a key role in the organisation and crucial to the success of our campaigns. You’d be joining at a time when debt is gaining in prominence as an issue, and it’s crucial we campaign for a just response in the midst of the Covid-19 crisis.

Working across all of our campaigns, from the global south debt crisis to the UK’s growing household debt trap, you’ll be writing accessible, punchy and inspiring copy; overseeing our social media channels; building webpages, actions and emails; commissioning on and offline communications products; and ensuring we have the digital systems in place to recruit, engage and retain supporters and measure impact. This is a big job in a small but highly effective and growing team.

We’re looking for someone with a background in digital organising, who has a range of experience and a passion for social justice. This is a broad role, with a lot of scope to develop different projects and campaigns. We’re not expecting you to be expert in everything, but you’ll need the skills and experience to produce engaging content and to champion digital engagement within the organisation. This is a great time to join and a fantastic role for a skilled digital campaigner.

We strongly value diversity and welcome applications from applicants from all backgrounds. We particularly encourage applications from people with a Black, Asian or minority ethnic (BAME) background.

The deadline for applications is 9am on Monday 13 July. Interviews will be on Tuesday 28 July.
