Position Summary: As Clinical Trials Lead, you will own the planning and execution of Salma Health’s clinical studies, from start-up through close-out. You will bring clinicians, researchers, and operations partners together to run trials that are rigorous, compliant, and on schedule. Your work generates the evidence behind our mission to better understand, diagnose, and treat brain disorders. This is a hands-on role for someone who enjoys building the processes that let a growing research program scale.

Key Responsibilities:

- Lead end-to-end operational execution of clinical trials, from study start-up and site activation through enrollment, monitoring, and close-out

- Develop and manage study plans, timelines, and budgets, and keep leadership informed of progress, risks, and trade-offs

- Partner with clinical, research, and data teams to turn protocols and research priorities into practical, well-sequenced operational plans

- Oversee participant recruitment, screening, scheduling, and retention to meet enrollment goals while protecting the participant experience

- Oversee IRB submissions, informed consent, and study documentation so that every study is inspection-ready

- Select and manage external partners and vendors, holding them to clear standards for quality and delivery

- Ensure study conduct follows the protocol, Good Clinical Practice, and applicable regulations, and resolve protocol deviations and quality issues promptly

- Build and improve the systems, templates, and workflows that allow our research program to run multiple studies at once and scale

- Lead, mentor, and develop study coordinators and research staff

Required Qualifications:

- At least 5 years of clinical research or clinical trial operations experience, including managing studies from start-up through close-out

- Working knowledge of ICH-GCP and human subjects research requirements, including IRB processes and informed consent

- Demonstrated project management skills, including managing timelines, budgets, and several priorities at once

- Experience overseeing CROs, research sites, or other external vendors

- Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to work across clinical, scientific, and operational teams

- Comfort building structure in a fast-paced, evolving environment, with high integrity and sound professional judgment

- Ability to travel to Salma Health Clinics about 40% of the time

Preferred Qualifications:

- Experience with neuroscience, psychiatry, or neurology studies, or with interventional or device-based trials

- Experience in a startup or growth-stage organization, or a professional certification such as ACRP, SOCRA, or PMP

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.
