ProfessionalProfile
I am a qualified nurse with over 15 years’ experience in general and acute medicine, hospital
management and most recently research; which is where my passion lies. Working as part of
a large national study investigating prostate cancer for over 2 years has really cemented my
interest in this area and I am now keen to explore this further and looking for new challenges
and experiences. I have particularly enjoyed the data verification and would like to expand on
this and hope to eventually become more involved in study set up, study design and
monitoring as well as the clinical aspects of research. It is also my goal to complete my
masters in research in the future.
My many roles have given me a diverse skills set:
 Flexible, adaptable and able to work under
pressure and to targets
 Excellent communication skills and ability
to be empathetic to most situations
 Good IT skills including use of email,
PowerPoint, Excel and study specific
database
 Ward management experience including
budgets, absence monitoring, rosters
 Good clinical skills
 Link nurse roles
 Good analytical skills
 Experience of working towards
government and trust targets
 Experience of working as an
independent practitioner and as part
of a multi-disciplinary team
 Good organisational & time
management skills
 Presentation skills
 Good decision making skills
 Investor’s in People champion
