"Lead Researcher - World Rugby Supplements Programme for Anti-Doping Prevention"

You will lead a two-year fixed term research programme examining the effectiveness of World Rugby’s supplements programme for the prevention of anti-doping in international male and female players.

You should be an enthusiastic and highly organised individual who will be expected to take a lead role in all aspects of the programme of work, including: study design; logistical management, the day-to-day running and administration of the research project; quantitative and qualitative data collection and interpretation; communicating with World Rugby’s Anti-doping team, and the production of technical reports and manuscripts for publication.

The project team includes Dr Sam Moss, Professor Graeme Close, Professor Craig Twist, Dr Martin Littlewood and Dr Rebecca Murphy.

In return, we offer an excellent benefits package including generous annual leave entitlement, pension scheme, induction and development support as well as family-friendly policies.

LJMU are committed to adhering to the Principles set out in the Researcher Development Concordat; in line with this all fixed-term researchers will be supported to complete 10 days professional development activities per year (pro-rata).
