Operating within a premier inpatient hospital environment, this leader will manage a dedicated 10‑person team, drive protocol compliance, oversee study budgets, and collaborate closely with industry sponsors and Principal Investigators (PIs). If you are a hands‑on leader who thrives in a high‑acuity hospital setting and possesses a deep, end‑to‑end understanding of clinical trials, we want to hear from you. Core Responsibilities People Leadership: Direct the full employment lifecycle for a 10-person team (including a Research Supervisor, Coordinators, Assistants, and Analysts). Handle hiring, scheduling, performance evaluations, mentoring, and ongoing training. Clinical Operations: Manage day‑to‑day research workflows, design standard operating procedures (SOPs), coordinate strategic planning, and ensure seamless execution of inpatient and outpatient workflows. Financial Management: Track study financial statements, review monthly enrollment/revenue reports, and aid in contract and budget negotiations with pharmaceutical, biotech, and medical device companies. Protocol & Collaboration: Partner with investigators and industry sponsors to develop and implement scientific concepts, protocols, and execution tools. Compliance: Maintain total departmental compliance with strict institutional, IRB, state, and federal clinical research regulations. Required Qualifications Formal Management Experience: Minimum of 1–2+ years of formal supervisory or management experience with a dedicated leadership title. Must have direct experience managing people, including performance reviews, time, and attendance tracking. Inpatient / Hospital Setting Experience: Proven experience managing or running clinical trials within a physical, high‑acuity hospital environment. You must be completely confident navigating the ICU, managing inpatient protocol logistics, and coordinating time‑sensitive operational workflows (e.g., day‑of‑surgery timelines). Clinical Trials Background: At least 4 years of total clinical research experience with a comprehensive, top‑to‑bottom understanding of study workflows, protocol compliance, and IRB submissions. Education: Bachelor’s degree OR 4 years of additional relevant clinical research work experience above the minimum requirement. Preferred Qualifications (Highly Desirable) NIH / Grant Experience: Familiarity with the National Institutes of Health (NIH) grant ecosystem, including compiling paperwork for submissions, updating bio‑sketches, managing facilities documents, or drafting annual progress reports (approx. 40% of workload is grant‑funded). Active Clinical Skill Set: An active or recent background in phlebotomy (drawing blood). While this is a management‑first role, a willingness to occasionally “roll up your sleeves” and support the floor during heavy volume is highly valued. Therapeutic Familiarity: Prior exposure to trials involving Hepatology (cirrhosis, MASH, metabolic liver disease), Nephrology, or abdominal surgery/transplant workflows. Trial Diversity: Exposure to both Investigator‑Initiated (PI) trials (retrospective chart reviews) and Industry‑Sponsored corporate study pipelines.
