Name: Lauren Tindall
Position: SSS Manager
Email: [email protected]
Please Note: All salaries listed reflect the pay for full time roles. Any part time roles will be pro rata.
Why you should join our Team
The National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) has 12 Regional Research Delivery Networks across the U.K. These work with the national Coordinating Centre (RDNCC) and the Department of Health and Social Care to provide a joint RDN leadership function via the RDN Board, so that the NIHR RDN operates as a single, transparent organisation with a shared vision and purpose. Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust is Host Organisation for the Yorkshire RRDN region.
The RDN supports the effective and efficient initiation and delivery of funded research across the health and care system in England for the benefit of patients, the health and care system and the economy.
The RDN supports:
- Clinical trials and other well-designed health and social care research studies (including studies that are delivered outside of an NHS setting);
- Public health studies that require the recruitment of individuals within an NHS setting (that is, acute, ambulance, mental health, community or primary care) or an episode of care which involves contact with the NHS.
The RRDNs have three key roles:
- Providing support to research sites to enable the effective and efficient initiation and delivery of funded research across the health and care system in England.
- Enabling the strategic development of new and more effective research delivery capability and capacity. This includes bringing research to under-served regions and communities with major health and care needs.
- Working jointly with the Coordinating Centre in the strategic oversight of the NIHR RDN. This ensures that the Portfolio is maintained as a cohort of high-quality, fully funded, viable and deliverable studies. It will also ensure that the NIHR RDN serves the research delivery needs of investigators and R&D teams and is responsive to the changing domestic and global environment for health and care, life sciences and health research.
What you will bring to the role
This role offers an exciting opportunity to act as a key liaison across diverse stakeholders, communicating complex information and aligning strategic objectives to ensure seamless service delivery. You will lead on managing and interpreting complex operational data - utilising modern digital innovations like data visualisation dashboards and digital recruitment platforms, to drive high data integrity and evidence-based decision-making.
Operationally, you will facilitate efficient study set-up, conduct feasibility and capacity evaluations, and serve as a main NIHR Network contact for performance tracking and portfolio oversight. Beyond daily operations, the post holder will champion Life Sciences Industry research, support business development, and drive continuous service improvement through a customer-centric approach. Additionally, you will play a vital role in delivering training, organising national communities of practice, maintaining robust systems for study cost attribution, and ensuring strict adherence to Information Governance, Good Clinical Practice, and legislative standards.

Name: Lauren Tindall
Position: SSS Manager

Please Note: All salaries listed reflect the pay for full time roles. Any part time roles will be pro rata.
Why you should join our Team
The National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) has 12 Regional Research Delivery Networks across the U.K. These work with the national Coordinating Centre (RDNCC) and the Department of Health and Social Care to provide a joint RDN leadership function via the RDN Board, so that the NIHR RDN operates as a single, transparent organisation with a shared vision and purpose. Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust is Host Organisation for the Yorkshire RRDN region.
The RDN supports the effective and efficient initiation and delivery of funded research across the health and care system in England for the benefit of patients, the health and care system and the economy.
The RDN supports:
- Clinical trials and other well-designed health and social care research studies (including studies that are delivered outside of an NHS setting);
- Public health studies that require the recruitment of individuals within an NHS setting (that is, acute, ambulance, mental health, community or primary care) or an episode of care which involves contact with the NHS.
The RRDNs have three key roles:
- Providing support to research sites to enable the effective and efficient initiation and delivery of funded research across the health and care system in England.
- Enabling the strategic development of new and more effective research delivery capability and capacity. This includes bringing research to under-served regions and communities with major health and care needs.
- Working jointly with the Coordinating Centre in the strategic oversight of the NIHR RDN. This ensures that the Portfolio is maintained as a cohort of high-quality, fully funded, viable and deliverable studies. It will also ensure that the NIHR RDN serves the research delivery needs of investigators and R&D teams and is responsive to the changing domestic and global environment for health and care, life sciences and health research.
What you will bring to the role
This role offers an exciting opportunity to act as a key liaison across diverse stakeholders, communicating complex information and aligning strategic objectives to ensure seamless service delivery. You will lead on managing and interpreting complex operational data - utilising modern digital innovations like data visualisation dashboards and digital recruitment platforms, to drive high data integrity and evidence-based decision-making.
Operationally, you will facilitate efficient study set-up, conduct feasibility and capacity evaluations, and serve as a main NIHR Network contact for performance tracking and portfolio oversight. Beyond daily operations, the post holder will champion Life Sciences Industry research, support business development, and drive continuous service improvement through a customer-centric approach. Additionally, you will play a vital role in delivering training, organising national communities of practice, maintaining robust systems for study cost attribution, and ensuring strict adherence to Information Governance, Good Clinical Practice, and legislative standards.

System Coordination Centre Commander
NHS Shropshire, Telford and Wrekin Integrated Care Board View all jobs
Posted 11 day(s) ago
Reference: 2445112
Job summary
The publication of the Governments 10-Year Health Plan: Fit for the Future sets out an ambitious agenda for the health of the population and for the NHS. As part of that ambition, it makes clear that every system requires an Integrated Care Board that will function as the strategic commissioner of local health services, responsible for all but the most specialised commissioning, using multi-year budgets to drive improvement. This means ensuring that the money available to our local health and care system is put to the best possible use: to improve the local population's health, reduce health inequalities and improve access to consistently high-quality services.
The NHS needs commissioners who can better understand the health and care needs of their local populations, who can work with users, providers and wider communities and partners to develop strategies to improve health and tackle inequalities and who can contract with providers to ensure consistently high-quality, safe and efficient care. Improving access and waiting times, in particular against NHS constitutional standards, will continue to be core indicators of whether population needs are being met.
At the same time, we have a collective responsibility to reduce cost and become as effective as possible through reducing duplication and being clear on our core purpose. It is clear that there is much to do.
Main duties of the job
The SCC Commander will be part of the team working in the Integrated Care Board (ICB) System Coordination Centre (SCC). The role is responsible for delivering operational oversight via the SCC to ensure system level coordination of responses across Staffordshire & Stoke on Trent ICB and Shropshire, Telford & Wrekin, known as the Cluster ICB to maintain flow across UEC pathways.
The post holder will:
o Be responsible for monitoring key operational, clinical and quality metrics via a range of dashboards to swiftly identify deterioration in UEC performance across the system and escalate where required.
o Work with the ICB and system colleagues to implement all national and local guidance and ensuring system assurance is established through clear actions and pre-set targets.
o Support the wider directorate to deliver against national and local priorities as set out in the NHSE policy to improve and transform urgent and emergency care for the population of SSOT & STW, driving better outcomes, improved operational performance and value or money in planning and commissioning.
o Be required to work 150 hours over a 4-week rota across the seven-day period, 8am - 6pm including weekends and bank holidays.
o Work closely with ICB and system colleagues to balance risk across the system in times of escalation.
About us
Our goal as a clustered ICB is to lead and support delivery of the four Integrated Care System (ICS) aims across the geographies of Shropshire, Telford & Wrekin, Staffordshire and Stoke-on-Trent:
o Improving outcomes in population health and care
o Tackling inequalities in outcomes, experience, and access
o Enhancing productivity and value for money
o Helping the NHS to support broader social and economic development.
Please note that the Cluster ICB has consulted with its workforce on changes to contractual base locations and hybrid working arrangements and is implementing a consistent hybrid working model across the Cluster. The new arrangements are intended to support closer and more collaborative working across the Cluster ICB, through a consistent approach to hybrid working and the use of designated office locations.
