The Vascular Department is looking for a well-motivated and enthusiastic individual to join their team as a Clinical Research Fellow. This post is particularly well suited to an experienced resident vascular specialist looking to expand their research portfolio.

Outpatient clinics and day-case procedures are delivered across these sites.

University Hospital Coventry is a 1,000+ bed tertiary centre, a designated Level III Trauma Unit, and affiliated with Warwick Medical School, one of the UK’s leading medical institutions.

We run an established Surgeon-led EVAR/FEVAR programme performed in the vascular operating theatre, with TEVAR and aortic arch interventions also undertaken by the vascular team, including emergency out-of-hours TEVAR for BTAI.

The unit provides complex lower limb revascularisation (open and endovascular), diabetic limb salvage, carotid surgery, and the full spectrum of vascular procedures. Services are supported by a dedicated vascular laboratory and an interventional radiology team.

N.B. We reserve the right to close a vacancy before the closing date if we receive a high volume of applications or if there has been a change in organisational priorities.
