Fortrea is seeking a Statistical Programmer

Fortrea is seeking a Statistical Programmer to join our team at our clinical research facility in Leeds, UK. This is an office-based role supporting a diverse portfolio of Phase I clinical studies across multiple sponsors and therapeutic areas. Working in a fast-paced and collaborative environment, you will play a key role in the programming and delivery of clinical trial data, contributing to high-quality study outputs from study start-up through reporting.

This position offers the opportunity to gain broad exposure to different study designs, sponsors, and therapeutic areas while working closely with biostatistics, data management, clinical operations, and other cross-functional teams. The successful candidate will develop and maintain SDTM and ADaM datasets, produce statistical outputs, and contribute to the efficient delivery of clinical pharmacology studies, with opportunities for growth towards study lead responsibilities as experience develops.

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.
