What I'm looking for

I seek a leadership role in clinical operations where I can manage global teams, ensure high-quality trial delivery across phases, mentor CTMs, and contribute to operational excellence in a collaborative CRO or sponsor environment.

I am a Master of Pharmacy with 14 years of clinical research experience managing Phase II–IV trials for pediatric and adult populations. I have worked at three global CROs and hold experience across feasibility, start-up, maintenance and close-out activities.

For five years I have served as a global Clinical Team Manager (CTM), leading regional CTMs to drive consistency and performance across neuroscience, general medicine and oncology studies. I am an experienced trainer and mentor, having run onboarding programs and acted as a buddy to new CTMs.

I oversee preparation for and management of internal and sponsor site audits, and I bring hands-on operational knowledge of CTMS (Oracle-based), Medidata Rave EDC and MS Office tools. My therapeutic experience spans neuroscience, cardiovascular/metabolic, general medicine, hematology/oncology and infectious/respiratory indications.

I hold a Postgraduate Certificate in Clinical Research (Executive) from Cranfield University and a specialization in Pharmacotherapy; I communicate effectively in Serbian, English and Spanish, and I am committed to driving quality and team development in clinical operations.
