Requirements

  • This internship is suited to recent graduates as well as current students who are permitted to complete full time internships either during the holidays or as a placement as a part of their degree. This role is suited to those with a curious mind and the desire to contribute above and beyond expectations in projects.
  • Essential requirements for the role are:
  • An undergraduate degree level qualification in an economic, mathematical or computer science discipline (minimum 2.1 or equivalent). Postgraduate qualifications (minimum 2.1 or equivalent) would be an advantage, but they are not a requirement for the role
  • An A-level in Mathematics (minimum B grade or equivalent)
  • An excellent level of attention to detail in both quantitative and qualitative settings
  • Strong organisational skills, the ability to plan your own work effectively and the flexibility to respond to changing deadlines
  • The ability to communicate mathematical and economic material clearly in both written and oral formats
  • A problem-solving mindset and eagerness to work both independently and collaboratively to find solutions
  • Integrity, a proactive approach to your work, and a keen interest in developing your skills
  • In addition, advanced skills in Excel and/or R would be an advantage, but are not a necessity. Although no previous health economics experience is required, you must be able to display a genuine interest in healthcare and an eagerness to learn about new areas of health economic modelling.

Responsibilities

  • Producing an economic evaluation therefore requires Health Economists to:
  • Research and critically appraise medical and economic literature
  • Understand the theoretical health economic framework and apply this to the project at hand
  • Liaise with external medical professionals
  • Work collaboratively and build relationships with colleagues across healthcare disciplines
  • Build high-quality, technically robust and clinically valid models in Microsoft Excel or other software
  • Interpret and analyse model results, producing technically accurate written reports of methodologies and outcomes

Application Process

  • You are required to submit your CV and a cover letter via our online application form. In your cover letter, you must explain why you think you would be suited to the role and why you would like to join Costello Medical, with examples to support both. As written communication is a vital skill for this role, if your cover letter is suspected to have been generated by Artificial Intelligence (AI), your application is likely to be disqualified. Your CV should clearly state the dates of all qualifications and grades achieved where applicable.
