Intervention & Research Coordinator (Clinical Research)

**About Numan** Founded in 2018, we’ve already grown to be a 300+ team distributed across the globe, united by a singular mission: empowering people to take control of their health. Numan is transforming health: we’ve built a cutting-edge platform that integrates diagnostics, medication, supplements, digital programmes, and doctor consultations. Giving people the tools they need to maximise life. To deliver on our transformative mission, we are guided by our 5 company values: • Patients first. • Learn fast. • Own the quality. • Succeed together. • Care deeply. Backed by top-tier investors, Numan is already having a positive impact on hundreds of thousands of patients here in the UK, and we want you to help us deliver this mission! **About the Project** Numan is due to receive funding from Eli Lilly to design and evaluate a novel, autonomy-supportive behavioural intervention for patients starting GLP-1 receptor agonist therapy (tirzepatide) for obesity. Built on Numan's validated MyBarriers Questionnaire (MBQ) – a five-phenotype cognitive behavioural tool that identifies individual barriers to weight management at treatment initiation – the intervention will be delivered as a 6-week virtual group coaching series. It aims to improve medication adherence at third medication refill through personalised, autonomy-supportive behavioural support, and will be evaluated using a randomised test vs. control design (c.750 patients per arm). **The Role** Reporting to the Head of Clinical Research, this is a unique role at the heart of the Lilly project. You will operationally coordinate the study, support the design of the intervention alongside the Senior Behavioural Medicine team, and deliver group coaching sessions to intervention arm participants. The role suits an experienced behavioural health practitioner who combines clinical credibility and coaching skill with the operational capability to coordinate a research study. You will lead on ensuring the intervention is designed to the highest behavioural science standards, delivered with fidelity, and that all processes run smoothly from recruitment through to study closure. There will also be scope to support other projects across the Clinical Research function. **The Team** You will be an integral part of the Behavioural Medicine team, reporting directly to the Head of Clinical Research while working collaboratively with Senior Behavioural Medicine specialists, data science cohorts, clinical safety leads, and external project partners at Eli Lilly. ### You'll be: **Research Coordination (~30%)** - **Managing** the day-to-day operational delivery of the study, including timelines, milestone tracking, and documentation. - **Developing and maintaining** study materials – e.g. protocol documentation, participant information sheets, and consent forms. - **Coordinating** patient recruitment and randomisation in line with the study protocol. - **Owning** participant communications from invitation through to study closure, ensuring a high-quality patient experience. - **Coordinating** quantitative and qualitative data collection across both study arms, in collaboration with the data science team. - **Maintaining** accurate study documentation – e.g. participant records, protocol deviations, and operational logs. - **Supporting** the preparation of monthly performance reports, interim analysis, and the final study report. - **Liaising** across internal teams (data, coaching operations, clinical teams, platform) and with the external Lilly project team as required. **Intervention Design (~30%)** - **Collaborating** with the Senior Behavioural Medicine team to design, develop, and iteratively refine the 6-week autonomy-supportive group coaching series. - **Applying** evidence-based behaviour change frameworks (COM-B, Self-Determination Theory, Motivational Interviewing, BCTs) to session structure and content. - **Developing** the full suite of session materials: facilitator guides, participant…
