Haemostasis & Thrombosis Research CNS

An exciting opportunity has arisen for an enthusiastic and experienced Paediatric nurse to join our Haemostasis and Thrombosis Research team in the Cardiff Haemophilia Centre.

The post holder will be a qualified nurse experienced in direct patient care, based within the UHW Haematology Directorate. Previous clinical trial experience is an advantage, but not essential; full training and clinical support will be provided.

This is a 2 year fixed term post initially with an option to increase to 4 years.  Secondment could be considered.

The Cardiff & Vale Haemophilia and Thrombosis Centre provide clinical and laboratory services for patients with bleeding and thrombotic disorders. The service provides a whole life regional and local service to patients and families with inherited bleeding disorders across the Bleeding Disorders Network for Wales.

The Centre is enrolled in a number of ongoing multi-centre national and international clinical trials with future plans to increase the current research portfolio. The clinical trial portfolio includes both commercial and non-commercial observational and drug intervention studies, including the investigation of new treatments for the management of patients with Haemophilia, inherited and acquired bleeding disorders and platelet disorders. Additionally, new studies are due to open investigating the treatment and prevention of venous thrombosis, development of new anticoagulants and management of anticoagulant associated bleeding.
