Key Skills

Clinical Research Oncology ICH-GCP Site Monitoring Regulatory Compliance Protocol Management Data Integrity Problem Solving Attention to Detail Bilingual (English/Italian)

Dear Hiring Manager,

I am writing to express my strong interest in the Clinical Research Associate I position at Precision for Medicine. With a degree in life sciences and over six months of experience as a CRA in the pharmaceutical industry, I have developed a solid foundation in clinical trial monitoring and regulatory compliance. My oncology experience and CRA certification align well with the requirements of this role, and I am particularly drawn to Precision's focus on precision medicine and rare diseases.

I am adept at managing site visits, ensuring data integrity, and resolving challenges proactively. The opportunity to work remotely in Italy while contributing to groundbreaking cancer research is exciting. I am confident that my attention to detail, problem-solving skills, and fluency in English and Italian will enable me to succeed in this position.

Thank you for considering my application. I look forward to the possibility of discussing how I can contribute to your team.

Sincerely, [Your Name]

Describe your experience with oncology clinical trials. What specific responsibilities did you have as a CRA?
In my previous role, I monitored several oncology trials, including Phase II and III studies. My responsibilities included conducting site initiation visits, monitoring visits, and closeout visits, ensuring compliance with the protocol and ICH-GCP guidelines. I also reviewed source documents, verified data accuracy, and managed site communications.
How do you handle a situation where a site is not following the protocol or regulatory requirements?
I would first discuss the issue with the site staff to understand the root cause and provide retraining if needed. If the issue persists, I would escalate to the project manager and sponsor, documenting all findings and corrective actions. My goal is to resolve issues collaboratively while ensuring patient safety and data integrity.
What strategies do you use to stay organized and manage multiple sites and deadlines?
I use a combination of electronic tools like CTMS and Excel trackers to monitor site activities, milestones, and deadlines. I prioritize tasks based on urgency and risk, and I maintain regular communication with sites and the project team to stay aligned. Weekly planning helps me anticipate potential issues.
Can you give an example of a time you identified a risk in a study and proposed a solution?
In a previous study, I noticed that a site was consistently behind on enrollment. I analyzed the screening logs and identified that the inclusion criteria were too restrictive. I proposed a protocol amendment to broaden the criteria, which was approved, and enrollment improved significantly.
Why are you interested in working at Precision for Medicine specifically?
I am drawn to Precision's focus on precision medicine and oncology, which aligns with my career goals. The company's reputation for high CRA retention and supportive culture, with lower protocol loads and emphasis on work-life balance, is very appealing. I value having a voice in the organization and contributing to innovative cancer research.

Precision for Medicine is not your typical CRO. We are passionate about cultivating our culture and are proud to share extremely high CRA retention rates compared to industry averages.

CRAs join us, love their jobs, and stay because of the amazing people and enjoyable quality of life. You will have a lower than average number of protocols, setting you up to be a protocol expert. Travel is reasonable and your work/life balance will benefit as a result. Most meaningfully – your voice will be heard. Working in a smaller CRO allows you to have influence and impact when it matters most and support from direct line management.

Precision for Medicine is open to Clinical Research Associates I to join our team in Italy. This is a remote based position (homebased anywhere in Italy), with travel to sites for monitoring visits.

About you:

  • You are calm, thoughtful, and responsive when things don’t go as planned.
  • You are well-prepared, whether it be for an investigator meeting, site visit or project team update, always staying two steps ahead of the game.
  • You find quick and creative ways of overcoming difficulties.
  • You have an impeccable eye for detail.
  • You identify potential study risks and propose solutions on how to mitigate them.
  • You take responsibility in the quality and outcomes of your work.
  • You are adept at handling conflict by using tried and true resolution strategies.

How we will keep you busy and support your growth:

You will monitor and own the progress of clinical studies at investigative sites and ensure that clinical studies are conducted, recorded, and reported per protocol, SOPs, ICH-GCP, and all applicable regulations and standards. You will coordinate all necessary activities required to set up and monitor a study (i.e., identify investigators; helping prepare regulatory submissions, conducting pre-study and initiation visits, etc.).

Qualifications:

Minimum Required:

  • University degree life science/ pharmacy/ other health related discipline or equivalent experience in a scientific or healthcare discipline or be a licensed health care professional.
  • At least 6 months of experience as a CRA in either a CRO or pharmaceutical/ biotech industry or equivalent, relevant experience and/or demonstrated competencies.
  • Oncology experience
  • CRA Certification holder

Other Required:

  • Availability for domestic travel including overnight stays, which may constitute up to approximately 50-60% travel commitment 
  • Fluency in English and Italian

Preferred:

  • Graduate or postgraduate degree with a concentration in a scientific or healthcare discipline

Please, apply in English.
