The Opportunity

Monash University's internationally recognised Transfusion Research Unit (TRU) is seeking a skilled and motivated Senior Project Officer to lead the delivery of the National Transfusion Dataset (NTD) — Australia's first integrated national database of blood usage.

Your Role

As Senior Project Officer, you will:

  • Lead the operational delivery of the NTD and its related research activities
  • Manage hospital recruitment, stakeholder engagement, and project logistics
  • Develop protocols, oversee data management, and contribute to publications and presentations

You'll work closely with clinicians, researchers, and data providers in a collaborative and high-performing team environment.

About You

You are a confident project manager with experience in clinical research, health data, or transfusion medicine. You bring:

  • Strong organisational and analytical skills
  • Excellent stakeholder engagement and communication abilities
  • A collaborative mindset and commitment to research excellence

Experience with data linkage, SQL, Python, or AI/NLP tools is desirable but not essential.
