3. Ensure the integrity of clinical data and that the study is conducted in compliance with the approved protocol, GCP, applicable regulations, and SOPs.
4. Manage investigative site staff to facilitate trial deliverables, e.g., subject enrollment and data delivery.
5. Verify proper management and accountability of Investigational Product (IP).
6. Write and submit reports of investigational site findings and update applicable tracking systems. Escalate observed deficiencies, issues, and corrective/preventive actions as appropriate.
7. Manage essential documents as required by local regulations and ICH-GCP guidelines before, during, and after a clinical study; assist with resolution of investigational site/data queries.
8. Perform key risk assessments and management responsibilities throughout the project, including risk indicator and site health analysis, process evaluation, and escalation.
9. Participate in audit preparation and follow-up activities as needed.
10. Perform a variety of onsite and offsite monitoring visits independently.
11. Gather and review information for assigned sites, identify inconsistencies, assess risks, and escalate as appropriate with limited guidance.
12. Assist with non-complex adhoc, short-term assignments supporting additional studies or departmental initiatives.
13. May serve as preceptor, providing training to less experienced team members.

You are:

• Holding an undergraduate degree or international equivalent in clinical, science, or health-related fields from an accredited institution; health care professional licensure (e.g., registered nurse).
• Having previous experience supporting clinical trials, including solid on-site monitoring experience.
• Willing to travel 50-80%.
