What if your project leadership skills helped new medicines take their first step in human clinical trials?

Fortrea is one of the world´s largest and longest-established early-phase clinical research organizations.

From first-in-human to exploratory biomarker or complex ph1b programs, our Clinical Pharmacology teams generate critical safety, tolerability, PK and PD data that help new medicines to move forward.

We are currently hiring a Project Manager II in the UK to drive this mission forward.

This is a full-time, remote job.

DAILY RESPONSIBILITIES

  • Lead the end-to-end delivery of assigned Healthy Volunteers and Patient Clinical Pharmacology projects independently or under the direction of a Senior Project Lead, overseeing complex, high‑value studies across regional / global, cross‑functional teams.
  • Act as the primary point of contact for sponsor project teams, managing expectations, driving communication, and building long‑term client relationships.
  • Own project scope, timelines, and budgets, proactively managing change, financial performance, and delivery against contractual commitments.
  • Apply your project leadership expertise to anticipate, identify, and mitigate risks, managing critical paths to ensure key milestones and performance metrics remain aligned with both client and Fortrea objectives.
  • Provide senior leadership within a matrix project environment, guiding and mentoring project team members while resolving issues and escalations at pace.
  • Ensure quality, compliance, and audit readiness, maintaining oversight of TMFs, CTMS activities, project training, and adherence to SOPs and ICH/GCP standards.

AND YOUR LONG-TERM CONTRIBUTION?

  • Phase 1 and Phase Ib experience: Familiarity with early-phase trials in healthy volunteers and patients and their fast-paced environment is ideal, but international PM experience in Ph II-III will also be welcomed.
  • Financial Acumen: study budget management skills, with experience in forecasting, revenue recognition and change order development and negotiation.
  • Leadership: proven ability to inspire and manage globally dispersed teams and vendors, ensuring cross-functional collaboration and achieving core project milestones. Ability to work on multiple studies at any one time.

Why it works

3×

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.
