Data Manager - FSP

When our values align, there's no limit to what we can achieve.
 
At Parexel, we all share the same goal - to improve the world's health. From clinical trials to regulatory, consulting, and market access, every clinical development solution we provide is underpinned by something special - a deep conviction in what we do.

Each of us, no matter what we do at Parexel, contributes to the development of a therapy that ultimately will benefit a patient. We take our work personally, we do it with empathy and we're committed to making a difference.

Overview:

The Data Manager will be responsible for acquiring, processing, and reviewing patient data and records, organizing clinical data forms, implementing data management plans including data preparation and validation activities and define ways to improve operational processes for these activities. The DM will act independently and in collaboration with study teams seeking to develop and validate novel digital endpoints across different therapeutic areas.
In close partnership with colleagues from Sponsor's Research teams, you will play a key role in the deployment of novel digital endpoints into clinical studies, collection, management and analysis of sensor data, both in patients and healthy volunteers. You will need to communicate and interact effectively with colleagues within a matrix organization to help conduct key studies to drive portfolio decisions. This role will be central to the deployment and scaling of digital solutions into clinical trials where these technologies may be utilized as efficacy endpoints and provide value to key stakeholders.
