What I'm looking for

I seek a leadership role overseeing country-level clinical trials—site selection, start-up, recruitment, and regulatory compliance—within a collaborative, quality-driven organization that values mentorship and process improvement.

I am a Clinical Operations professional with 5+ years leading country-level management of Phase II–IV clinical trials, focused on feasibility, site selection, and high-quality data delivery. I partner with cross-functional teams to ensure studies meet regulatory and SOP standards.

I have led local trial teams through site qualification, recruitment planning, budget forecasting, vendor selection, CAPA development, and inspection readiness, consistently driving milestones and operational improvements. I manage TMF and CTMS oversight, informed consent preparation, and regulatory submissions to support study progress.

I bring a pragmatic, mentorship-focused leadership style, guiding teams through complex start-up and execution challenges while fostering collaboration and continuous process improvement. I remain current with industry standards and am ready to re-engage in hands-on clinical operations leadership.
