Freelance/Self-Employed Contract | Remote-based with 8 to 10 days onsite per month
We are partnering with a mid-size, fast-growing CRO to find an experienced Senior Clinical Research Associate based in the UK for a freelance contract. This is a great opportunity for a seasoned CRA who wants the autonomy of freelance work combined with the stability of a well-established, growing organisation.
The Role
You'll manage a portfolio of sites, balancing remote monitoring with regular in-person visits (approximately 8 to 10 days onsite per month). You'll take ownership of the full monitoring lifecycle, from site qualification through to close-out, while acting as a trusted point of contact for investigators and site staff.
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Key Responsibilities
- Conduct qualification, initiation, interim monitoring, and close-out visits across assigned sites
- Perform source document verification, CRF review, and query resolution across paper and EDC systems
- Ensure ongoing site compliance with ICH-GCP, the UK Medicines for Human Use (Clinical Trials) Regulations 2004 (as amended), and MHRA reporting requirements
- Identify site-level risks proactively and work with sites to resolve issues before they escalate
- Review subject safety data and informed consent documentation
- Maintain accurate, timely documentation and TMF filings
- Oversee IP accountability, storage, and reconciliation at site level
- Build and maintain strong relationships with investigators, site teams, and sponsor contacts
- Balance a mixed remote/onsite model efficiently, managing your own schedule and travel
