Who we are looking for: A highly motivated psychometrician with a passion for applying their knowledge to support development, validation, and interpretation of clinical outcome assessments (COAs). You will have a BSc or MSc degree in statistics, psychology, quantitative psychology, life sciences, or another relevant field; knowledge of relevant psychometric methods including classical test theory, factor analysis, and item response theory/Rasch analysis; and experience with performing analyses in statistical software (e.g. SAS, Stata, R, Mplus). Experience with providing input to statistical analysis plans, preparing associated table shells, and performing and/or reviewing psychometric analyses would be advantageous. Previous experience of working in a healthcare consultancy or academic group would be desirable, but we are open to training the right candidate with transferable skills from other disciplines. This is an excellent opportunity for a talented and ambitious individual who would relish working in a fast-paced but fun environment.
How you fit in: With your background in quantitative research, you will join a vibrant team of psychometricians, statisticians, and SAS programmers who partner with a broader team of qualitative researchers/COA measurement specialists. In this varied role, you will be involved in study design, writing psychometric study protocols, writing statistical analysis plans, and working with the SAS programmers to prepare associated table shells. You will also be involved in performing and reviewing psychometric analyses, providing interpretation of results from psychometric studies, and disseminating these to our clients. You will also serve as a psychometric consultant internally for the wider Adelphi Values research team and help deliver internal training on relevant methodologies. You will be encouraged and supported to present work externally at conferences and via peer-reviewed publications. Opportunities to develop your knowledge through ongoing training and academic collaboration will also be provided.
What we offer: We believe in rewarding high performance – so our benefits package includes a competitive salary, performance-related rewards, health insurance, pension, and gym membership. We provide support for further qualifications in a friendly and informal office environment. This position is located at our Head Office in the pretty village of Bollington, near Macclesfield, 40 minutes south of Manchester, UK.
