About The Opportunity
Step into a pivotal leadership role that sits at the heart of a rapidly expanding district-wide Clinical Trials portfolio, backed by strong executive support and a clear strategic vision. This position offers a rare opportunity to shape clinical trial operations across one of NSW's largest Local Health Districts, championing innovation, quality assurance, and stakeholder engagement. You'll play an integral role in implementing the National Clinical Trials Governance Framework—a defining step for the sector—while leading and coordinating high-quality trials across multiple hospital sites and specialties. By working closely with trial units to develop business plans and align objectives, your contributions will directly elevate governance standards, workforce capability, and reporting excellence.
You'll collaborate with the Executive Director and Project Director of Clinical Trials, as well as a multidisciplinary team including clinical trial coordinators, research nurses, pharmacists, medical specialists, and allied health professionals.
