Take the next step in your project management career and help deliver clinical studies that make a difference.
We are looking for an organised, proactive and customer-focused Associate Project Manager (APM) to join our team at Thermo Fisher Scientific.
This is an exciting opportunity for someone with experience in project support, coordination or a related environment who is ready to take on greater ownership. You will work alongside experienced Project Managers while also taking responsibility for your own projects, coordinating activities across multiple teams from study set-up through to completion.
Working in a fast-paced clinical supply environment, you will be at the centre of bringing together customers, internal teams, production schedules, documentation and key milestones to ensure studies are delivered successfully.
What will you do?
As an Associate Project Manager, you will help keep clinical studies moving by ensuring the right people, products and services come together at the right time.
You will build strong relationships with customers and internal stakeholders, proactively communicating progress, identifying priorities and helping resolve issues before they impact delivery.
Your responsibilities will include:
- Managing projects from set-up through to completion, coordinating technical, operational and service activities across the business.
- Partnering with customers and internal teams to understand study requirements and provide clear, timely updates.
- Planning and tracking key milestones, timelines, critical-path activities and responsibilities using appropriate project management tools and processes.
- Coordinating study readiness, ensuring the required services, products, documentation and information are in place when needed.
- Supporting clinical supply planning, working closely with the Master Production Scheduler to balance customer requirements with available production capacity.
- Preparing and coordinating project documentation, including batch, distribution and operational documentation using internal systems.
- Monitoring day-to-day project activity, identifying risks, changes or potential delays and supporting effective solutions.
- Supporting project financial management, including accurate forecasting, reporting and revenue recognition.
- Maintaining accurate study records and filing systems in line with company procedures and quality requirements.
- Working in accordance with Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) and Thermo Fisher Scientific quality standards.

You will be someone who takes ownership, communicates openly and enjoys bringing people together to get things done. You will be self-motivated, adaptable and resilient, able to prioritise effectively and remain calm when deadlines are tight or plans change at short notice. You build trusted relationships, influence across teams and approach challenges with a positive, collaborative and practical mindset.
What we offer
We want our colleagues to feel supported both inside and outside of work. Alongside your salary, you will have access to a comprehensive and flexible UK benefits package designed around your health, financial wellbeing and lifestyle.
Why join us?
