Clinical Research Associate

🍊Our mission

All new medicines need to undergo clinical trials to show they’re safe and effective. But today’s clinical trial infrastructure is stuck in the past, and the cost of developing new medicines has skyrocketed as a result. Patients have to wait longer and pay more for new treatments.

Our mission is to fix this; we use software to help innovative companies run faster, more reliable, and patient-friendly clinical trials. We’re still a young company, but we’ve already had a big impact. Since founding the company in March 2021 we’ve helped run over 100 clinical trials involving tens of thousands of patients, with a customer NPS of 100.

We recently raised a $55m Series B round from Balderton Capital, with support from Creandum, Firstminute, Seedcamp, and Visionaries.

🍊About the role

We’re looking for a CRA to ensure effective risk-proportionate monitoring of Lindus Health’s global portfolio of clinical trials. This covers both central and onsite monitoring, where site monitoring may be remote or may involve travelling to sites across the UK, to conduct in-person visits. You will undertake the preparation, conduct and then create reports for the trial monitoring visits. Central monitoring involves reviewing in real-time, accumulating trial data via our in-house platform, Citrus. This role is integral to maintaining high monitoring standards as our customer base grows significantly over the coming years and is our first full-time CRA hire in the UK.

You’ll work closely with our Clinical Operations, Product and Commercial teams, as well as the sponsor-side teams that make up our customer base.
