job description

The National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) was formed on 1 April 2005, when the National Institute for Clinical Excellence took on the functions of the Health Development Agency to create a single excellence-in-practice organisation responsible for providing national guidance on the promotion of good health and the prevention and treatment of ill health.
NHS Evidence is a new web-based service that will allow users from across the health service to access and use high-quality clinical and non-clinical evidence and best practice.
With a strong background in healthcare technologies or a related field, you're ready for a role with real autonomy and responsibility. The National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) is the independent organisation responsible for guiding the NHS and the broader public health community on the promotion of good health and all aspects of prevention and treatment - and you will have a central role to play within the NHS Evidence programme.
This innovative service gives diverse users access to a comprehensive source of high quality evidence and local experience, customised to individual needs. You will oversee the operational management and development of drug-related content on the web portal, including engaging end users and other stakeholders to ensure that we fully understand their differing needs. Equally you will control the contract for content provision and build relationships with potential suppliers from the pharmaceutical industry stretching your interpersonal and negotiating skills to the full.
Very self-motivated and commercially astute, you will be fully versed in all aspects of quality assurance and capable of controlling teams to produce effective results. Above all, you're ready to meet the strictest deadlines and determined to play a central role in the success of NHS Evidence.
For an informal discussion please contact Dr Augustine Pereira on 0207 045 2065 or email: augustine.pereira@nice.org.uk
