About us: This post will be based in the Health Psychology Section of the Department of Psychology, at King’s College London, embedded within a dynamic team that brings together expertise in long-term condition management, complex intervention development (including digital health), randomized controlled trials, and implementation research. The Health Psychology Section has played a pivotal role in shaping the discipline within the UK and is internationally recognised for excellence in both research and teaching. Our work spans fundamental research into the psychosocial processes underlying adaptation to long-term conditions and the experience of symptoms, as well as translational research testing the efficacy and effectiveness of theory-based psychological interventions for people living with long-term conditions.  We are also at the forefront of developing and evaluating innovative methods to support self-management of health, symptoms, mood, and adherence, with a strong emphasis on digital interventions. At King’s, we are deeply committed to embedding equality, diversity, and inclusion into all aspects of our work. By joining us, you will become part of a collaborative and supportive environment that values diversity of thought and experience, and you will contribute to advancing research that has a direct impact on improving health outcomes and quality of life for people with long-term conditions.  About the role: The post-holder will be responsible for the overall administrative management of the NIHR-funded REFUEL-MS grant. REFUEL-MS is a £2.7 million, 5.5-year programme grant for applied research, funded by the National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR) and the MS Society.
