Clinical Project Manager (Research & IT)

As a Project Manager in the Clinical Operations team you will independently oversee (inter-)national clinical drug trials, non-interventional studies, medical-device studies and IT-related research projects of high complexity. This role blends traditional clinical project management with the operational coordination of digital tools, platforms and IT services used in patient-centric studies.

What you'll do

• Serve as the primary point of contact for the sponsor and drive project planning, execution and timelines - from study-start activities through ongoing study management to the coordination of all phases of the clinical-trial lifecycle.
• Own the project budget, perform budget control and report to the functional-unit lead.
• Coordinate and manage IT services and platforms that support clinical studies (e.g., ePRO, eCOA, eCRF, patient-engagement tools).
• Translate Clinical Operations requirements into technical specifications for internal and external IT teams.
• Ensure that digital tools operate efficiently for customers and patient groups.
• Work closely with technical teams to troubleshoot issues, roll out updates and continuously improve workflows.
• Monitor and coordinate activities of vendors (e.g., partner CROs, patient-service providers, technical vendors).
• Develop and implement processes, SOPs, work instructions and standardized documentation to guarantee consistency and compliance.

• You hold a successful degree in a natural-science discipline, a related field, or an equivalent qualification.
• You have an industry background (e.g., CRO, pharma or biotech) and several years of experience as a project manager in clinical research.
• You possess deep understanding and expertise in the application and implementation of IT services and/or decentralized study elements.
• Preferably you have experience with non-interventional studies (NIS) as well as clinical trials.
• You are familiar with GCP/ICH, ISO 14155, ISO 20916 and AMG/MDR/IVDR regulations.
• You work with a high degree of ownership and execution strength in planning, prioritising and delivering tasks.
• Your work style is analytical, independent and solution-oriented.
• You enjoy working with electronic data and databases and have solid skills in Microsoft Office applications.
• You have strong interpersonal skills and are a genuine team player.
