Data Manager

The closing date is 28 July 2026.

The Cancer Clinical Trials Unit at UCLH is looking to recruit a Data Manager to support a portfolio of Phase I–III clinical trials in the Real World Evidence Team. You may be required to cover other disease areas on a short‑term or longer‑term basis.

The post‑holder will be required to deliver and verify trial‑specific information to sponsors, support the team with the set‑up of new clinical trials and assist as needed with the processing of biological samples, amongst other tasks. You will be part of a supportive and dynamic team, working closely with clinical research staff. Whilst the position is administrative, the role is vital in supporting clinical research staff to deliver excellent care to patients with cancer.

Hybrid remote working is supported, allowing a combination of working from home and office‑based work. Flexibility around on‑site working is essential, and you may be required to attend the office at relatively short notice to ensure that the service is covered.

We ideally want someone with experience of clinical research, knowledge of cancer, good verbal and written communication skills and some experience of working in a healthcare setting. However, if you have some of these criteria and clear enthusiasm for the role, then please apply.
