Job description

Research Manager, Patient-Centered Outcomes

Who we are: Adelphi Values is a leading health outcomes consultancy that works with a wide range of pharmaceutical companies. The Patient-Centered Outcomes (PCO) team are global leaders in the selection, development, validation, and use of Patient-Reported Outcome measures (PROs) and other Clinical Outcome Assessments (COAs). We are a dedicated team of researchers proud of our friendly, supportive culture, reputation for high-quality research, and client service which puts the patient at the centre of drug development.

What we do: Our purpose is to improve patients’ lives by informing healthcare decisions. We do this by supporting clients in the selection, development, psychometric validation, and implementation of COAs that form trial endpoints or are used in clinical practice to support the evaluation of the patient experience and assessment of treatment benefit.

What we are looking for:We are looking to recruit an ambitious and highly motivated individual to join our Patient-Centered Outcomes team as a Research Manager, responsible for leading a range of qualitative and quantitative projects pertaining to the selection, development, validation, and use of COA measures.

To be considered for this role, you must have:

• Relevant qualifications in health psychology, psychology, psychological research methods, or related disciplines;
• At least two years’ direct experience of performing research relating to PROs/COAs;
• Experience in designing and conducting qualitative research, as well as analyzing and reporting qualitative data and/or experience in collecting and analysing quantitative data;
• Excellent communication and presentation skills;
• Strong leadership skills and ability to lead project teams, as well as being a good team player;
• Experience of client management;
• Eligibility and settlement status to work in the UK.

Ideally, you will have:

• Hands-on experience of developing and/or validating PRO measures or other COAs;
• Experience of engaging with regulators (e.g. FDA, EMA) regarding COA research;
• An understanding of clinical research, and an appreciation of the practical challenges of evaluating treatment benefits from a patient perspective;
• An understanding of statistical techniques used in psychometric validation of COA methods
• Experience in the design, conduct, analysis and reporting of patient preference research (e.g., discrete choice experiments) would be an advantage;
• Experience in writing research proposals;
• Experience of managing research project finances;
• Experience of developing content for conferences and publication (e.g. poster, conference presentations, and/or journal manuscripts)

How you fit in: You will join a dynamic team of researchers with a passion for excellence in research and client service. As part of our international team you will work closely with colleagues based in the UK and/or US.

You will help manage projects and clients, plan workstreams and prepare client proposals, secure future business, and manage and lead various types of projects related to selection, development, and validation of health outcome assessments. You will also play a key role in supporting more junior team members in terms of mentoring, training, and development, and will be the primary client contact on projects. This is an exciting and visible role with real potential to develop your research career in the important and growing field of patient-centered outcomes research in which you will help design, win, and deliver important and innovative projects.

What we offer: Our benefits package includes a competitive salary, performance-related rewards, health insurance, pension, and on-site gym membership. We provide support for training and development along with career progression opportunities. This position is based at our head office in the pretty village of Bollington, near Macclesfield.
