We combine the full-service capability and resourcing solutions of a large CRO with the agility and personalized partnership of a mid-size provider.

We are looking for an accomplished and quality-driven Senior Clinical Research Associate to support a prestigious client partnership at a cutting-edge academic research institution in London. This is a unique, part-time opportunity (0.2 FTE) ideal for an experienced CRA seeking a flexible contract role.

Key Responsibilities

As a Senior CRA, you will be the primary point of contact for a designated clinical site, ensuring compliance and excellence throughout the trial lifecycle. Your duties will include:

• Conducting all monitoring activities (site initiation, routine monitoring, and close-out visits) in strict adherence to ISO 14155, ICH-GCP, and other applicable regulatory standards.
• Ensuring the protection of study participants by verifying proper informed consent procedures and upholding the highest standards of subject safety.
• Guaranteeing protocol compliance and data integrity through meticulous review of source documents and accurate transcription to Case Report Forms (CRFs).
• Managing site relationships effectively, providing ongoing support and training to site staff to ensure smooth study conduct.
• Proactively identifying and resolving site issues, with comprehensive documentation and timely escalation as necessary.

Qualifications & Experience

Essential:

• Current certification in ISO 14155 for medical device clinical investigations.
• Bachelor's degree or higher in Life Sciences, Nursing, or a related field.
• A minimum of 3 years of independent, on-site monitoring experience as a CRA.
• Proven experience supporting clinical trials within the medical device sector is strongly preferred.
• Demonstrated ability to work autonomously, manage a decentralized workload, and excel in a home-based environment.
• Exceptional organizational, communication, and problem-solving skills.
• Must be based in the UK and available for regular travel to a single site in London. Proximity to London is a significant advantage.

TFS HealthScience is committed to investing in our talent. By joining our team, you will receive:

• A competitive, pro-rated compensation package with a flexible contract structure.
• The opportunity to contribute to a high-profile study at a world-class academic institution.
• A supportive and innovative environment within a global CRO that values expertise and work-life balance.
• A focused role with a manageable travel schedule to a single site.
