Job description

Get AI-powered advice on this job and more exclusive features.

Precision for Medicine is not a typical CRO. At Precision for Medicine we have brought together new technologies, expertise and operational scale to help the life sciences improve the speed, cost and success rate of bringing life-changing therapies to patients. What sets us apart is the way we integrate clinical trial execution with deep scientific knowledge, laboratory expertise and advanced data sciences. We have a strong focus on Oncology and Rare Disease.

We are passionate about cultivating our culture and are proud to share extremely high CRA retention rates compared to industry averages.

CRAs join us, love their jobs, and stay because of the amazing people and enjoyable quality of life. You will have a lower than average number of protocols, setting you up to be a protocol expert. Travel is reasonable and your work/life balance will benefit as a result.

Most meaningfully - your voice will be heard. Working in a smaller CRO allows you to have influence and impact when it matters most and support from direct line management.

Position Overview

We are looking for an experienced CRA II or Senior CRA to join our team in the UK. You will need to have previous monitoring experience in oncological clinical trials.

This is a remote-based position (home-based anywhere in the UK), with travel to sites for monitoring visits.

About You:

• You are calm, thoughtful, and responsive when things don’t go as planned.
• You are well-prepared for an investigator meeting, site visit, or project team update, always staying two steps ahead of the game.
• You find quick and creative ways of overcoming difficulties.
• You have an impeccable eye for detail.
• You identify potential study risks and propose solutions on how to mitigate them.
• You take responsibility for the quality and outcomes of your work.
• You are adept at handling conflict by using tried and true resolution strategies.

Responsibilities:

You will monitor and own the progress of clinical studies at investigative sites and ensure that clinical studies are conducted, recorded, and reported per protocol, SOPs, ICH-GCP, and all applicable regulations and standards. You will coordinate all necessary activities required to set up and monitor a study (i.e., identify investigators; help prepare regulatory submissions, conduct pre-study and initiation visits, interim and close-out visits, etc.).

Senior CRAs handle appropriately sized clinical trials and support Project Managers with trials that are larger in scope. You will also have the opportunity to train and mentor junior staff members. You will interact directly with clients, initiate payments, and participate in proposal activities, including development and client presentations.

Requirements:

• Life science degree and/or equivalent experience
• CRA experience within the CRO or pharmaceutical industry (and working in Oncology). We require a minimum of 1 year experience as a CRA in Oncology, and can offer CRA II and Senior CRA titles depending on experience level.
• Availability for domestic travel including overnight stays, as required (international travel may be required for some senior level positions)

Preferred Qualifications:

• Graduate or postgraduate degree with a concentration in a scientific or healthcare discipline
• Two+ years of oncology experience
• Study start-up activities experience would be an advantage
• For Senior CRAs, understanding of financial management and mentoring experience would be desirable

We invite you to learn more about our growing organization serving our clients that are researching groundbreaking cancer therapies. We strive to ensure employees feel appreciated for the contributions they make every single day. You will provide input and have your ideas valued and nurtured, impacting positive change for the company.
