Job overview
Hello, my name is Irene, and I am one of the Lead Pharmacists in the Clinical Trials Pharmacy department. We are excited to offer a unique opportunity for a motivated and enthusiastic pharmacist seeking a non-patient facing, office-based position with no on-call duties. This is a non-clinical role, with opportunities to develop clinical skills.
This role emphasizes project management and meeting deadlines. You will be responsible for creating and maintaining bespoke pharmacy-specific documentation for each trial, reviewing sponsor documents, and collaborating with sponsors, CROs, and research teams. These documents guide the receipt, storage, dispensing, labelling, accountability, and destruction of IMPs, requiring high attention to detail to meet sponsor requirements and GCP standards.
The position offers experience in aseptics within our clinical trials aseptic and ATMP units.
We welcome applicants with or without previous clinical trial experience who are eager to explore this field. We look forward to welcoming you to our team.
