IIR Associate – Medical Affairs
12 month Contract | Hybrid role - full time with 3 days per week in Basingstoke | £15–£20 per hour
We are currently recruiting for an IIR Associate to join a Medical Affairs team on a contract basis in Basingstoke.
This is a great opportunity for someone with experience in clinical research, pharmaceutical/medical administration, project coordination or a regulated environment who is looking to develop their career within the pharmaceutical industry.
The Role
As an IIR Associate, you will help coordinate and monitor Investigator Initiated Research (IIR) studies across a number of countries. You will work closely with internal teams, investigators, affiliates and other business partners to make sure studies remain on track, compliant and well documented.
This is a coordination and project management-focused role rather than a hands-on clinical position. You will be responsible for keeping track of timelines, documentation, contracts, finances and study milestones throughout the life of each research study.
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.
