- Translate clinical development and asset strategy into clear study-level operational plans.
- Lead proactive study risk identification, mitigation and issue resolution.
- Ensure robust feasibility, study planning and operational execution.
- Provide strategic operational input into protocols, informed consent forms and other key study documents.
- Oversee CROs and other external vendors, including vendor selection, performance management and escalation where deliverables are at risk.
- Ensure studies remain compliant with ICH-GCP, applicable regulations, SOPs and inspection-readiness requirements.
- Lead study financial planning, forecasting and budget management.
- Communicate study progress, risks, decisions and recommendations effectively to senior stakeholders and governance forums.
- Champion innovative approaches to clinical trial delivery, including decentralised trial approaches, technology, automation and AI-enabled ways of working.
- Contribute to continuous improvement initiatives across Clinical Operations.

- Demonstrated ownership of study timelines, budgets, risks, quality and operational strategy.
- Significant experience overseeing CROs and third-party vendors, including performance management and issue resolution.
- In-depth knowledge of ICH-GCP, global regulatory requirements and clinical development processes.
- Strong project and financial management capabilities.
- The ability to influence senior stakeholders and drive decisions in complex, fast-paced environments.
- Excellent leadership, communication, negotiation and conflict-management skills.
- Experience proactively identifying and resolving risks that could impact clinical programmes.
