British Heart Foundation (BHF) is the UK's largest independent funder of cardiovascular research, and we have an opportunity for a new Research Advisor to join us and play a pivotal role in bringing our research strategy to life.

Through our portfolio of active research projects, we fund some of the most exciting and innovative cardiovascular research and the most talented scientists from PhD students to BHF Professors.

As our Research Advisor for the Project Grants Committee, youll play an active role in supporting the work of BHF s largest funding committee, providing scientific input throughout the research grant evaluation and delivery process and taking primary responsibility for supporting the work of the Project Grants team. In the past year alone, the Project Grant team have handled over 250 applications, necessitating streamlined peer review, prompt scientific feedback, and effective scientific management both before and after funding decisions.

Whilst you'll primarily facilitate the work of our Project Grants Committee team, youll take a flexible approach to cover the work of BHFs other research funding committees as required, whilst also supporting the Chief Scientific and Medical Officer, our Directors and Heads of Discovery and Clinical Research in implementing BHFs new research strategy.
