Job description

An exciting opportunity has arisen for an experienced Senior Trial Manager to join the Pragmatic Clinical Trials Unit (PCTU) at the Wolfson Institute of Population Health, Queen Mary University of London.

In this role, you will work in close partnership with the Clinical Project Manager at King's College London (KCL) to coordinate the TRIAGE trial. You will provide leadership and oversight across relevant aspects of trial delivery.

This is a key position requiring a skilled and motivated professional with strong communication, organisational, and problem-solving abilities. You will play a central role in ensuring the efficient, high-quality, and compliant delivery of the trial.

The successful candidate will hold an undergraduate degree and bring substantial experience in the development, conduct, and management of clinical trials, including multi‑centre studies. Previous involvement in AI or radiology research would be an advantage, though not essential.

You will have solid insight of current regulatory requirements, including research governance issues and ICH‑GCP principles, plus proven experience in drafting clinical trial protocols and coordinating submissions and approvals with Research Ethics Committees (REC), regulatory authorities, and local R&D offices.

The Wolfson Institute of Population Health (WIPH) is an exciting and dynamic environment, home to 450 staff, 100 PhD students and 500 postgraduate taught students. It harnesses expertise across a wide range of population-based research and education activities and is an internationally recognised centre of excellence in population health, primary care and preventive medicine. The Institute is organised into six research centres which, though complementary and following the Institute's strategic plan, also have Centre-specific objectives and requirements.

The postholder will be based in the Centre for Evaluation and Methods (CEM). CEM is a thriving research centre that incorporates a number of collaborative units who work closely together to deliver outstanding research based on their combined and complementary research strengths. The Centre comprises of four units, including two UKCRC registered clinical trials units (CTUs): Barts CTU and the Pragmatic CTU; the Methodology Research Unit; and the Health Economics and Policy Research Unit. The post-holder will contribute in particular to the Pragmatic CTU.
