Ankita Mahindrakar

I am a PMP-certified Clinical Project Manager with over six years' experience leading global Phase I–IV vaccine and pharmaceutical trials. I specialize in site activation, regulatory compliance, risk mitigation, and budget oversight for studies with budgets exceeding $1M.

In my current role I lead end-to-end trial activities across 10+ global markets, coordinate cross-functional teams of 20+ stakeholders, and maintain 100% audit readiness of eTMF records through strict adherence to ICH-GCP and SOPs. I standardize processes using SmartSheet and SharePoint to improve document turnaround and reduce duplicate work.

My contributions include improving forecasting accuracy by 12%, delivering a 5% year-over-year revenue uplift, and reducing potential site start-up delays by 15% through proactive risk management. I also negotiate scope changes while preserving timelines and sustaining client satisfaction above 95%.

I hold certifications in PMP, Regulatory Affairs, and Good Clinical Practice, and I am recognized for operational excellence (IQVIA Impact Award). I bring a collaborative, quality-focused approach and a track record of delivering high-quality outcomes in complex global clinical programs.
