Do you have excellent organisational skills and a real attention to detail?  Do you enjoy working with key stakeholders and senior leaders in a high performing, innovative organisation? Would you like to be part of a team that provides a high quality corporate management and governance service?

An exciting opportunity has arisen to join a busy, highly motivated team at the NIHR Clinical Research Network’s National Coordinating Centre.

As Governance Coordinator you will be based in the Corporate Management and Governance team (CM&G), within the Corporate Operations Directorate. You will work closely with the Governance team, Senior and Executive teams and establish strong cross-organisational relationships. 

You will actively support the Governance Officer, Governance Manager and Head of Corporate Management and Governance, reporting to the Governance Officer to deliver robust governance frameworks and promote best practice.

As a member of the team you will schedule and support a programme of key boards and committees. You will also work with the CM&G team on key projects and initiatives by providing support and sometimes leading discreet projects to deliver a programme of information governance (IG) and learning activities to ensure organisational compliance with data protection legislation. 

Working proactively and often independently with excellent organisational and time management skills, you will demonstrate a high level of attention to detail. You will be an excellent communicator having experience of working with a variety of internal and external stakeholders. You will be a great team player with a positive attitude.
