The post holder will play a leading role within the Buckinghamshire Healthcare NHS Trust (BHT) Research and Innovation team, supporting the rollout of the Trusts innovative Lipid Optimisation Programme. Additionally, they will be asked to co-supervise and support areas of cardiovascular research across the Trust. The Trust supports a large portfolio of commercial and non-commercial cardiology studies, and the postholder will be expected to be an active leader within this field.
