About the Role

In this role, you will work autonomously as a Trial Manager, taking overall responsibility for the day-to-day management of multi-centre randomised clinical trials. You will assist in finalising the protocol, study materials, training packages for collaborating sites and trial manuals, and prepare trial specific instructions. You will work to design data collection forms and associated documentation as required in collaboration with the trial statistician and Chief Investigator – then work with the trial programmer to assist in the design and testing of the trial database systems for randomisation, data entry validation and report generation.
