Communications Officer, Research

We are looking for an outstanding communications professional with the drive to engage people with the latest healthcare and biomedical research.

Research is helping better understand human health and wellbeing so we can improve current treatments and care, and develop new and better ones. It is also helping diagnose diseases and conditions earlier or more accurately.

Our research communications team works across audiences and channels. We develop amazing content from the cutting edge of health research to help drive public engagement and participation in research, build a strong research culture and share our impacts.

If you are a creative professional with an appetite for explaining complex subjects through great content and rewarding events then we'd like to talk to you.

University Hospital Southampton is one of England's largest acute teaching Trusts, offering a wide range of learning and development opportunities to support your career aspirations.

Located on the south coast with an international airport and direct rail links to London, Southampton offers an ideal setting to live and work, with the New Forest, South Downs and Jurassic Coast.

We believe that using technology wisely shows strong time management and commitment to innovation. However, personalizing your recruitment application to highlight your unique skills and experiences is crucial. Relying too heavily on generic, AI-generated content instead of drawing from your own strengths and accomplishments may lead to your application being rejected if multiple candidates present identical or similar information.

At UHS we're committed to providing a flexible working environment where possible. Whether you are balancing family, study, or your wellbeing with your career, we want to support you so you can help our patients.
