If you’re as driven as we are, join us. You’ll be working in a dynamic and supportive environment, with some of the brightest and the friendliest people in the sector, and you’ll be helping shape an industry.
We are currently seeking a Statistical Programmer I to join our diverse and dynamic team. As a Statistical Programmer I at ICON, you will assist in the development and validation of statistical programs to support clinical trial analysis and reporting. Your role will be crucial in ensuring the accuracy and efficiency of data analysis, contributing to the success of clinical research projects.
What You Will Be Doing:
Assisting in the development, validation, and maintenance of statistical programs (SDTM, AdAM, SAS, R, or similar) for data manipulation and analysis in clinical trials.
Collaborating with senior statistical programmers and biostatisticians to understand project requirements and contribute to statistical analysis plans (SAPs).
Performing data cleaning and preparation tasks to ensure data integrity and accuracy prior to analysis.
Participating in the preparation of reports and documentation to support regulatory submissions and clinical study reports.
Learning and applying industry standards, including ICH/GCP guidelines, to programming tasks to ensure compliance.
Your Profile:
Bachelor’s degree in statistics, mathematics, computer science, or a related field.
Basic knowledge of statistical programming languages such as SAS or R; coursework or internships in programming is a plus.
Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with attention to detail and a willingness to learn.
Ability to work collaboratively in a team environment and communicate effectively with team members.
Familiarity with clinical trials and data management processes is an advantage but not required.
