The Role

We are currently seeking Study Start Up Associates of all levels to join our diverse and dynamic team.  As a member of the Study Start Up Team, you will play an integral role in ensuring that physicians at our research sites are well-prepared to commence clinical trials for investigational products at their local practices. Your expertise in reviewing and negotiating clinical site investigator contracts and budgets will be crucial in facilitating a seamless study start-up process.

What you will be doing

  • Contract and Budget Review Expertise: Review and negotiate clinical site investigator contracts and budgets to ensure fair and compliant agreements.
  • Seamless Communication and Collaboration: Maintain effective communication with investigative sites, sponsors, and internal personnel to provide updates on contract status and related documents.
  • Streamlined Document Preparation and Coordination: Prepare and coordinate contractual documents and correspondence efficiently.
  • Facilitating Indemnification Process: Facilitate the indemnification process between the study sponsor and the site to address potential legal concerns.
  • Budget Oversight and Consultation: Act as an internal consultant on study budgets, including investigator payments.
  • Training Material Development and Delivery: Develop and update training documentation and conduct group training, as necessary.
  • Mentorship and Personnel Development: Mentor and train new and junior personnel in the Study Start Up department.
  • Strategic Expertise in Contract and Budget Development: Provide expert advice and consultation on the Investigator Contract and Budget development process from origination through execution.

This Position is office-based in Milan, but can be home-based for individuals with more extensive experience.

Your Profile

  • A bachelor’s degree in Paralegal studies, Juris Doctor (law) degree, or clinical related experience is preferred.
  • Previous experience in Study Start Up (SSU) is desirable but not required.
  • Proficiency in managing contract and budget negotiations is necessary.
  • Fluent in Italian Language
