We wish to recruit a Research Fellow to work on a programme of work to develop and evaluate a new therapeutic approach with adults who repeatedly self-harm.

The post holder will work with a Senior Research Fellow on a number of projects that will develop, refine and feasibility test the new approach.
In order to undertake this role, you will have an understanding of NHS services including mental health services, and experience of managing research projects.

It is essential that you are an effective communicator with good interpersonal skills as this post involves working with staff and service users. You should have a high level of cultural awareness and diversity issues in research practice.
