What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that allows me to leverage my clinical research expertise while fostering innovation and collaboration in a dynamic team environment.

I am an accomplished Clinical Research Specialist with over four years of extensive experience in study start-up, project management, and leadership across both commercial and non-commercial trial settings. My proven expertise lies in collaborating with Clinical Research Organizations, Sponsors, and Universities to deliver high-quality research. I am recognized for my strong work ethic, motivation, and a consistent track record of successfully managing and completing complex projects.

Currently, I serve as a Senior Clinical Trials Coordinator at the Christie NHS Foundation Trust, where I oversee a portfolio of Early-Phase Experimental Cancer Medicine Trials. My responsibilities include ensuring adherence to regulatory standards, managing trial activation, and facilitating collaboration among multidisciplinary teams. I have successfully contributed to the continuous improvement of clinical trial processes, promoting efficiency and compliance while mentoring a team of clinical trials staff.

With a strong educational background, including an MSc and BEng, I possess a robust set of skills in scientific report writing, data analysis, and critical evaluation of scientific literature. I am now seeking a new opportunity in study start-up to apply my skills and experience in advancing innovative clinical research.
