Ready to take ownership of early-phase clinical trials while gaining the variety, autonomy and visibility that larger CROs often can't offer?
Join a boutique, early-phase CRO partnering with innovative biotechnology companies across a varied portfolio of clinical trials, including psychedelic medicine, respiratory disease, oncology and other therapeutic areas.
With a close-knit team of approximately 30-40 people, the company offers a collaborative, supportive culture where individuals can make a visible contribution. Unlike larger CRO environments, the role provides exposure to different responsibilities and opportunities to develop in areas that match your interests, including clinical project management.
The opportunity
We are looking for a Clinical Research Associate who can independently manage monitoring activities and contribute effectively from an early stage. You will work primarily on Phase I and Phase II studies, supporting small biotech sponsors across a range of therapeutic areas. Alongside site monitoring, the position will include elements of eTMF management and broader clinical trial responsibilities.
This could be an excellent opportunity for an experienced CRA seeking greater variety, autonomy and progression within a smaller organisation. Candidates with relevant academic research experience are also encouraged to apply, provided they have the practical monitoring experience required to work independently.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
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.
