The position

As a Senior Clinical Project Lead (CPL) in Clinical Operations, CKAD, you will take on a senior role with extensive responsibilities. You will assume accountability for end-to-end planning, execution, and completion of global trials.

Your main responsibilities will include:

  • Leading the global cross-functional study teams, driving the clinical trials successfully and collaborating with Novo Nordisk affiliates globally to accomplish our goals
  • Ensuring the trial team, which consists of a group of designated Global Trial Managers, Global Clinical Trial Administrators, and Clinical Operational Leads, is well-functioning
  • Chairing of the trial squad (a group of relevant stakeholders outside of Clinical Operations)
  • Being overall accountable for the studies and clinical activities
  • Ensuring that project key deliverables are met on time at a high quality and within budget by using your extensive project leadership, as well as your solid knowledge and experience with conducting clinical trials

To succeed in this role, you need in-depth knowledge about clinical trial methodology as well as extensive clinical project management and strategic operational experience. Effective communication, a curious mindset, and leadership skills are essential, with a demonstrated ability to navigate a complex stakeholder landscape while impacting the project strategy as well as execution and improvement of core clinical processes.

The job is based in Søborg in Denmark but has a global scope. Some international travelling may be part of the job.

Qualifications

You will be a great asset to our team because you have:

  • A master's degree in Natural, Health or Pharmaceutical Science (or equivalent) with at least five years of relevant experience or a bachelor's degree with at least seven years of relevant experience
  • Extensive experience in all operational aspects of planning, conducting, and finalization of clinical trials from a cross-functional organizational work
  • Demonstrated strong project management expertise
  • Strong communication and leadership skills

Furthermore, you have demonstrated impact and influence in the execution and improvement of core clinical processes. You work independently with minimal guidance and can navigate in a complex stakeholder landscape.

This role is permanent, offering you the opportunity to join the Cardiovascular, Kidney and Alzheimer Disease Clinical Operations area, driving ambitious drug development trials within established and new therapeutic areas. If you are seeking great personal development opportunities and an empowering work culture, this could be the perfect role for you.
