Do you want to be at the heart of life-changing medical innovation?

Can you turn complex clinical trials into seamless, successful operations?

Are you ready to lead with expertise, purpose, and impact?

We’re looking for a Senior Clinical Projects Manager to take the lead on pivotal clinical studies in oncology, hematology, and beyond. Reporting directly to the Clinical Operations Director, you’ll be the driving force ensuring that each study runs on time, on budget, and to the highest quality standards.


This is a role for someone who thrives on collaboration—coordinating seamlessly across Clinical Research Organizations (CROs), study sites, regulatory teams, medical affairs, quality assurance, and more. You’ll be the central link between all stakeholders, making sure nothing stands in the way of delivering results that truly matter to patients.


In this role, you will:

  • Act as a trusted expert in your therapeutic areas, guiding studies from start-up to close-out.
  • Build and maintain strong relationships with internal teams, external partners, CROs, and study sites.
  • Lead operational planning, execution, and documentation, ensuring compliance with GCP, ICH, and regulatory standards.
  • Oversee contracts, budgets, trackers, and Trial Master Files with precision and care.
  • Spot challenges early, take decisive action, and keep projects on track through KPIs and CAPAs.
  • Inspire, coordinate, and motivate cross-functional teams to deliver their very best.


What you bring:

  • Master’s degree in Life Sciences, Clinical Research, or related field (PhD or PharmD a plus).
  • 5–10 years’ experience in clinical operations within pharma or CRO environments, ideally in oncology/hematology.
  • Solid experience in CRO/sponsor management, vendor oversight, and contract/budget negotiations.
  • In-depth knowledge of ICH-GCP, EMA regulations, and (ideally) FDA requirements.
  • Strong communication skills in English and French—confident in presenting, influencing, and engaging at all levels.
  • Proven leadership in complex, multi-stakeholder environments.
  • PMP or similar project management certification is a plus.


Why this role matters:

You’ll be at the forefront of advancing therapies that have the potential to change—and save—lives. You’ll join a collaborative, forward-thinking environment where your skills, decisions, and leadership will directly shape the success of clinical development.


If you’re ready to make your mark in clinical research and lead projects that truly make a difference, we want to hear from you.
