Ease Research Assistant
Greater Manchester Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust View all jobs
Posted 27 day(s) ago
Reference: 2357227
Job summary
The post is to work as a Research Assistant on the EASE Trial, an NIHR randomised controlled trial (RCT) that aims to examine the value of EMDR for people with early psychosis, and a history of distressing life experiences.
As the post will involve extensive travel within the Greater Manchester area, the ability to travel independently of the public transport system is important. The post is based at Central Park, Northampton Road, Manchester, M40 5BP. The post is funded full-time for 12 months from January 2027, with the possibility of extension. The post-holder will receive line management support from Professor Filippo Varese and the EASE trial managers in Greater Manchester Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust (GMMH). This includes regular line management supervision, clear objective setting for 3, 6 and 12 months and annual appraisals thereafter (depending on continued funding for the post).
We strive to be an inclusive research team, and we welcome applicants from a diverse range of communities to apply for the post, including people from diverse ethnic communities, people who identify as LGBTQIA+, and/or who identify as having a disability, lived experience of a mental health problem, or as being neurodivergent.
Main duties of the job
The post holder will be responsible for recruiting eligible participants to the trial, conducting assessments using validated clinical measures to confirm the eligibility of participants, and to conduct baseline and follow up assessments. Administrative requirements will include timely and accurate documentation, updating clinical records, and managing record-keeping databases. This post will involve travelling to, and working across, multiple locations including NHS settings and participants' homes. Hence, the post holder must be comfortable lone working, within a supported and structured risk management protocol. Applicants should be able to work warmly and sensitively with people experiencing distress, and be able to manage their own wellbeing using available supervision and support structures.
You will have a good first degree in Psychology (at least a 2:1). You will have some experience of working in a mental health setting as an Assistant Psychologist or Research Assistant (or equivalent experience), and an interest in psychosis, trauma, and/or other serious mental health difficulties.

The successful candidate will work within a multidisciplinary team to assess and treat a range of mental health conditions, challenging behaviors, and severe and enduring mental illnesses.
Nursing practice is constantly evolving, and at Riverside Centre, so are we. We believe that to understand mental health issues, it's often more helpful to ask, "What has happened to you?" rather than "What is wrong with you?" This approach is at the heart of our Trauma-Informed Approaches (TIA), where we recognise the connection between life experiences and the development of mental health difficulties. Riverside Centre Hillingdon is a leader in developing Trauma-Informed Approaches (TIA) to patient care within CNWL.

We are seeking an individual with excellent communication skills, capable of engaging effectively with service users, their carers, and other professionals.
The ideal candidate will have:
- Exceptional communication skills and a compassionate, caring approach to patient care.
- A drive to improve inpatient care in a mental health setting.
- A commitment to continuous professional development and collaborative teamwork.
- The ability to provide strong clinical leadership and serve as a role model for best practices on both the ward and within the wider unit.
Please note, that this role requires successful candidates to participate in Therapeutic Management of Violence and Aggression (TMVA) training, including the use of force techniques, due to the high-acuity nature of the ward and the need to ensure the safety of both patients and staff. Candidates must complete TMVA training during their employment to be considered for the position.
About us
Working at Riverside Centre offers the following benefits:
- A commitment to our Safety Pledge aimed at reducing restrictive interventions.
- An innovative Trauma-Informed staff training program, including Team Formulation practice.
- Integration of Sensory Modulation into the care pathway.
- Coaching and development sessions on the topics like wound care treatment, dementia care, Mental State Examination skills, and administering ACE assessments.
- On-site shadowing opportunities with our HTT, CMHT, and Psych Liaison services.
- A dedication to career mapping, ensuring continuous professional development with opportunities for training in CBT, DBT, ECG, and venepuncture.
- Flexible shift hours to support a healthy work-life balance.
- A comprehensive training package, including sponsorship for postgraduate studies up to a master's level.
- Recognition through our Hidden Gem award, annual ceremonies, and award-winning Staff Networks, which offer exciting events and thousands of members.
- Excellent staff benefits, including childcare vouchers, health and wellbeing services, season ticket loans, and a cycle-to-work scheme.
