How to locate job vacancies for health service statisticians

Advertisements for health service statisticians appear in a variety of places, including the following.

• National newspapers
• The National Health Service Information Authority website
• The Health Service Journal
• The newsletter RSS NEWS which is issued monthly to all members of the Royal Statistical Society
• Electronic mailing lists (such as Allstat and Public-health)
•  Other general websites such as Jobs.ac.uk.

As stated earlier, job titles are not necessarily "Health Statistician" or even "Statistician". Other job titles include Information Analyst/Manager, Health Researcher, Health Intelligence Analyst, Planning Analyst, Clinical Audit Officer and many variations on these themes.
