Job Title: Senior Data Manager
Location: Welwyn Garden City, UK
Duration: 6 Months Contract
Mode of Work: Hybrid Role (2/3 Days in a Week)
The Opportunity:
The Data Manager (DM) plays a critical role in ensuring the quality, integrity, and availability of clinical trial data to support decision-making in early and late-stage drug development. Working closely with Biostatistics, Analytical Data Science, and cross-functional partners, the Data Manager leads the design, implementation, and oversight of data management activities across one or more studies. This includes database setup, data cleaning, query resolution, and vendor oversight, with a strong emphasis on regulatory compliance, efficiency, and data readiness for analysis.
The role requires both technical acumen and collaborative leadership to anticipate challenges, drive process improvements, and enable high-quality data delivery across the clinical portfolio.
- You independently manage end-to-end data management activities for one or more studies, from CRF and database design to final study closure
- You collaborate with cross-functional partners (Biostats, Data Science, Clinical) to define data specifications and ensure data meets study needs
- You collaborate with Clinical Operations to ensure optimal selection of data-related vendors and drive site performance in data entry timeliness and query resolution
- You resolve complex data issues using industry best practices, knowledge of risk-based monitoring, and system capabilities (e.g., EDC, ePRO, IRT)
- You evaluate and refine study-level data processes, incorporating feedback and innovations to improve efficiency and data quality
- You support oversight of third-party vendors to ensure data deliverables meet regulatory and quality expectations
- You share technical expertise with colleagues and contribute to continuous improvement of team practices and documentation
- You demonstrate a good understanding of the clinical data ecosystem, proactively identifying data issues, taking ownership of non-CRF data, and knowing where to go to resolve problems efficiently
