We are looking for a Consultant (Clinical Outcome Assessment - COA) to play a critical role in project teams by delivering analytical insight, leadership, and creativity across billable clients, business development, and internal initiatives.
Role Overview
Coordinates and supports the development, evaluation, and implementation of Clinical Outcome Assessments (COAs), including Patient Reported Outcomes (PROs). This high-growth position focuses on informing strategy, creating robust evidence, and ensuring compliance with regulatory frameworks.
Responsibilities
- Lead COA research projects, encompassing selection, development, and validation of COA instruments.
- Oversee qualitative and quantitative data collection, perform data analysis, and produce comprehensive scientific deliverables (reports, manuscripts, and abstracts).
- Align with regulatory requirements (FDA PRO Guidance, ICH, EMA, or HTA bodies), ensuring methodology adheres to international standards.
- Develop COA strategies and endpoints to support labelling claims, clinical development, and market access.
- Design and execute mixed-methods research, including interviews, cognitive debriefing, and validation studies.
- Provide strategic scientific leadership for high-profile client engagements—advising on project direction, presenting findings, and advising on COA-related decisions.
- Mentor junior colleagues, delivering training in COA methods, regulatory science, and endpoint strategies.
- Collaborate with internal stakeholders (biostatisticians, regulatory teams, clinical experts) and external partners to integrate COA insights into broader initiatives.
- Drive business development, participating in proposals, bid defence meetings, and client outreach within the COA domain.
- Support thought leadership via publications, conference presentations, and best-practice policies to grow the practice.
- Engage in strategic planning by assisting in workforce resourcing and future capability development.
