At CluePoints, we’re redefining how clinical trials are run. As the premier provider of Risk-Based Quality Management (RBQM) and Data Quality Oversight software, we harness advanced statistics, artificial intelligence, and machine learning to ensure the quality, accuracy, and integrity of clinical trial data, helping life sciences organizations bring safer, more effective treatments to patients faster.
We’re proud to be an ambitious, fast-growing technology scale-up with a dynamic and diverse international team representing more than 20 nationalities. Collaboration, flexibility, and continuous learning are part of our DNA.
At CluePoints, you’ll find a culture where you can grow, make an impact, and have fun along the way. Guided by our values of Care, Passion, and Smart Disruption, we’re united by a shared mission: to create smarter ways to run efficient clinical trials and deliver AI-powered insights that improve human outcomes worldwide.
The Role
We’re looking for a Chief of Staff to the Chief Product & Technology Officer (CPTO) to join our Product, Engineering & Research team and contribute to our mission of transforming clinical research through data-driven insights.
This is a hybrid role based out of our UK hub, with periodic travel for leadership offsites and board preparation. Exact on-site cadence and travel percentage to be confirmed.
What You’ll Bring
- Typically 6–10 years in roles that reward structured thinking and execution – management consulting, strategy or operations, programme or product management, a prior chief-of-staff role, or a fast-paced startup or scale-up.
- Strong problem-solving: you break down ambiguous problems, structure them, and drive to clear, evidence-based recommendations.
- Excellent written and verbal communication, with the ability to tailor complex topics to different audiences.
- Exceptionally organised and reliable, able to run multiple workstreams in parallel without dropping details.
- Technical fluency and curiosity around product, engineering, and research topics, with the ability to build trust and influence without formal authority.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Nice to Have
- Exposure to clinical trials, life sciences, or regulated software environments.
- Experience supporting a senior executive or leadership team.
- Familiarity with OKRs, roadmapping, and modern product and engineering operating models.
What You’ll Be Doing
- Support the CPTO in setting and refreshing the product, engineering, and research strategy, translating high-level direction into clear goals, OKRs, and priorities.
- Prepare materials and analysis for board updates, leadership offsites, and quarterly planning, framing key decisions and trade-offs cleanly.
- Own the operating rhythm of the organisation – leadership meetings, staff meetings, and reviews – including agendas, pre-reads, decisions, and follow-through.
- Coordinate delivery across product, engineering, and research so dependencies are surfaced early and initiatives stay on track.
- Draft and refine communications on behalf of the CPTO, including leadership updates, all-hands content, and clear narratives for different audiences.
- Take on ambiguous, cross-cutting special projects – from operating-model changes to new process design – and drive them to a clear recommendation or outcome.
