Particular attention will be given to assessing the effectiveness of each site’s strategy used to identify potentially eligible subjects. The SEL must also understand how the trial fits into the site’s pattern of treatment for the condition and how any competing clinical trials or upcoming drug approvals may affect the progress of recruitment. Repeated interactions will be needed over the course of the trial to ensure that the trial remains “top of mind” with investigators and staff. The SEL will function as part of the study team and will interact frequently with sponsor companies and their field personnel.

• Understand the scientific basis of assigned clinical trials

• Utilize educational materials to effectively communicate the science behind the clinical trial to the study teams

• Be able to communicate the scientific basis of the trials to other team members, investigators and site staff

• Identify effective prescreening strategies for each trial and recommend improvements as needed

• Provide detailed reports of interactions with investigators and site staff

• Participate in business development activities as assigned

Your profile

• Bachelor's degree in life sciences or a related field.

• Previous experience in clinical research, site management, or a related field preferred. (2-4 years)

• Advanced English level is a must.

• Strong interpersonal and communication skills, with the ability to build rapport and establish effective working relationships with diverse stakeholders.
