Job Title: Associate Director, Clinical Trial Lead

Job Location: Remote, USA

Job Location Type: Remote

Job Contract Type: Full-time

Job Seniority Level:

Make the most meaningful impact of your career in this rewarding role with Biogen, a well-established pioneer in the pharmaceutical industry. This is your rare opportunity to transcend day-to-day management operations as you design operational strategy and oversee our clinical research organization (CRO) partners to develop clear protocol concepts and final protocols. The best part: You will own responsibility for entire clinical trial studies, including operational design, successful delivery, and the positive impact on the lives of patients with a wide array of neurological conditions, including nephrotic conditions, multiple sclerosis (MS), Alzheimer’s disease, and spinal muscular atrophy (SMA). Working from home, office, or both on a flexible, hybrid schedule, you’ll have the support of a team with well-established procedures in place to make your vision a reality.

What You’ll Do

  • Develop and oversee implementation of the study-level operational strategy for the successful delivery of clinical studies.
  • Chair the Study Management Team (SMT) to drive development of scientifically robust, operationally feasible, and clear concepts/protocols.
  • Oversee delivery of studies by CROs to ensure quality execution in line with time and budget forecasts.
  • Partner with the CRO SMT lead to ensure the CRO creates appropriate risk-mitigation plans and effectively identifies/resolves issues.
  • Establish and drive efficient team operations by establishing an open culture defined by communication, goal setting, and oversight of strategy implementation.
  • Ensure effective, consistent, efficient and compliant processes.
  • Champion synergies among other studies, programs, and development units to enhance excellence in study planning and execution.

Who You Are

Scientifically and clinically astute, you’re a mission-driven individual with the strategic vision to see the big picture and assume responsibilities much broader and more meaningful than day-to-day operations. Decisive, analytical and self-confident, you are determined to own all of your career and the difference you can make on the lives of others through your leadership and ability to inspire excellence.

Required Skills

  • Bachelors Degree in a scientific discipline
  • 8 + years in clinical operations management, overseeing outsourced clinical trials per quality, timeline, and budget expectations, preferably with a sponsor company and a CRO
  • Related scientific and clinical expertise and exceptional project-management, risk-assessment, contingency-planning, and communication skill
  • Extensive knowledge of clinical development related to one or more trial phases (I, II, III, or IV), as well as cross-functional drug development
  • Unquestioned expertise in Good Clinical Practices (GCP), International Council for Harmonisation (ICH) guidelines and regulatory requirements for clinical development
  • Ability to establish operational plans and support the CRO in executing them
  • Effective CRO management skills and ability to adapt to the Global Clinical Operations (GCO) outsourcing model

Preferred Skills

  • Experience operationalizing nephrology clinical studies
  • An advanced degree, such as a master’s or Ph. D in a related field
  • Investigator site and/or monitoring experience

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
