About the job Clinical Trial Manager

Join Pharmacosmos in a high-impact role and lead end-to-end global trial execution.

Ensure advancement for global clinical trials in phase 1

Pharmacosmos continues to expand locally and internationally, creating the need for expansion in the Clinical Operations department that aligns with a growing clinical trial portfolio. As the new Clinical Trial Manager, you will report directly to the Senior Director, Head of Clinical Operations, and take the lead in the planning, oversight, and execution of global clinical trials in phase 1. This involves driving the full trial lifecycle—from protocol development input, site and CRO/vendor selection and contracting to trial execution, close-out, and inspection readiness. 

All along ensuring seamless coordination across all trial phases while maintaining alignment with program objectives and timelines. Additionally, you will negotiate and manage trial agreements, vendor contracts, and study budgets with a focus on cost efficiency and value creation. Likewise, you will anticipate and identify potential risks early, developing and implementing mitigation strategies to safeguard timelines, budgets, and overall trial quality. Finally, the role involves close collaboration with both internal stakeholders as well as external providers to secure the advancement of clinical trials.

Highly skilled professional within early-phase clinical trials

We expect you to hold a relevant bachelor's or master's degree, combined with solid experience in the pharmaceutical industry, specifically within clinical operations management with an emphasis on early-stage clinical trials. Moreover, you have prior experience managing CROs and vendors on a global scale. In addition, you bring an excellent understanding and demonstrated application of Good Clinical Practice (GCP), ICH, and other relevant guidelines. You possess strong project management skills and the ability to lead and manage a wide range of internal and external stakeholders, exceling at meeting timelines and reaching corporate goals. Finally, fluency in English, written and spoken, is required.

Personally, you are proactive, energetic, and independent, thriving in an environment where you take ownership and set direction. You combine a performance-driven mindset with strong execution skills, enabling you to both define the framework and make it happen. Demonstrating excellent planning, coordination, and prioritization skills, you can work independently as well as collaboratively. Your robust professional foundation enables you to make timely and sound decisions, empowering you to effectively navigate through ambiguity and change.
