Job Description:

When our values align, there's no limit to what we can achieve.

Parexel is currently recruiting for an experienced Central Labs Project Manager to join one of our key sponsors in Europe, based in the UK. You will be working on global studies.

You will be responsible for ensuring quality samples and data are delivered to support biomarker and non-biomarker evaluation, enabling the translation of science to medicine.

You will work closely with project managers (central and/or specialty labs) and lend expertise to clinical trial management (CTM) and CRO to ensure samples are collected per protocol and assist with resolving sample-related issues. Additional responsibilities include overall project management in alignment with the core business strategy.

Some specifics about this role

• Support clinical study teams for technical and operational sample-related matters, liaising with internal stakeholders such as ICF specialists.
• Establish, oversee, plan, and integrate issues related to collection, processing, storage, shipping, transfer of samples and data, and reporting/billing.
• Guide clinical teams and sites on sample collection, storage, and shipping.
• Ensure sample collection and usage comply with study protocols and ICF.
• Coordinate with Human Sample Management to document, track, use, and destroy samples appropriately.

Who are Parexel

Parexel supports clinical studies across various therapeutic areas, with longstanding partnerships with numerous clients.

We have supported trials for many top-selling drugs and enable niche developments critical to patient well-being.

You will be an influential member of the wider team.

What we are looking for in this role

We seek professionals committed to patient well-being, working with heart.

Specific requirements

• 6-8 years of clinical research experience in academic, CRO, or pharmaceutical/biotech industries, with knowledge of clinical trials and databases.
• Laboratory sample management experience is a plus.
• Oncology experience is mandatory, with preference for solid tumors; Haemato-oncology is acceptable if solid oncology experience is solid and traceable; multiple phase experience (I-III).
• Vendor coordination experience (e.g., Central Lab, specialty lab, CROs).
• Experience supporting clinical trials from setup (ICF review/drafting, protocol review, blood volume calculations, lab kit build) to initiation, maintenance, and close-out.
