An exciting opportunity has arisen to appoint a new medical statistician to join the Diabetes Trials Unit (DTU) Statistics and Modelling group, part of the Oxford Centre for Diabetes, Endocrinology and Metabolism (OCDEM) on the Churchill Hospital campus, Oxford.

 

The DTU is a fully registered UKCRC Clinical Trials Unit and one of only a handful of academic research organisations worldwide that specialises in designing and performing both global clinical outcome mega-trials and early-phase translational trials of novel therapeutic opportunities and devices. This post represents an excellent development opportunity for the successful applicant who will be able to contribute to on-going and upcoming clinical studies under the guidance of senior statisticians.

 

Applicants should have a post-graduate degree in statistics or a related subject with good working knowledge of common statistical methods in clinical trials, observational studies, and meta-analyses. Good statistical computing and programming skills in one or more of SAS, Stata and R are essential. Familiarity with SAS macros would be an advantage.

 

Applicants must be able to work independently as well as part of a team, be able to communicate complex concepts to non-statisticians, and have effective interpersonal skills.

 

The post is full time and fixed term for two years in the first instance.

 

For informal enquiries about the role please contact ruth.coleman@dtu.ox.ac.uk. Please quote 158538 in all correspondence.

 

The deadline for applications is 12.00 midday on 13th July 2022. Interviews will be held on the week commencing 25th July 2022.
