Bristol Vaccine Centre (BVC) is a team of doctors, nurses, academic, administrative and laboratory staff working together to develop new, better ways to prevent and treat infectious diseases. We conduct commercial and non-commercial clinical trials to evaluate novel drugs and vaccines, from small early-phase safety studies to large efficacy trials. We also want to find out more about the naturally occurring carriage of bacteria and/or viruses in healthy individuals, and how this changes in illness. This work can take the shape of large epidemiological studies or smaller lab-based research projects that use human tissue samples obtained via donations to the Bristol (Immunity & Infection) Biobank, which is coordinated by BVC staff.

We are seeking applications from motivated, reliable, and hard-working individuals for the role of Assistant Database Manager to join our friendly team.
