Clinical Research Associate II Leeds
Job Summary
Have you ever wanted to see a clinical trial happen in real time
This is not monitoring from a distance. At Fortrea Clinical Pharmacology Services in Leeds CRAs are on site in the flow of the study when it matters most.
You see dosing days. You walk the clinic floor. You review data as it is generated not months later. It is a different way to work as a CRA.
It all happens inside a world-class 100-bed 65000 ft² Clinical Research Unit only 7 minutes from the train station where lifesaving medicines begin their journey.
We are currently hiring CRA I and CRA II to support Phase IIb studies. These are:
- Fulltime permanent positions.
- Ideally you live in Yorkshire or within driving distance of our Drapers Yard clinic.
WHY A CAREER IN EARLY CLINICAL DEVELOPMENT AT FORTREA
Involved in studies even before they are won (i.e. participating at BID meetings) you will:
Be on-site for the moments sponsors travel the world to witness.
This includes first-in-human dosing days when you review eligibility observe dosing and safety procedures in real time and see decisions unfold as the study begins.
You will also follow PK samples into the lab and work side by side with clinic pharmacy and lab teams during the most critical moments of the study.
Rarely work alone.
Studies are often monitored alongside another CRA and during busy periods you will find several colleagues on site at the same time.
The Leeds Clinical Research Unit gives you the option to work from the office collaborate face to face and build real working relationships with CRAs CTLs and clinical teams. You will be part of a global team closely interacting with the other Fortreas clinics in the US.
