If impact, flexibility, and career development appeal to you, Parexel may be your next home.

  • Leverage your expertise. Conduct qualification visits (QV), site initiation visits (SIV), monitoring visits (MV) and termination visits (TV) at assigned clinical sites and generate visit/contact reports.
  • Build relationships. Oversee integrity of the study and utilize problem-solving skills to promote rapport with the site and staff.
  • Protect patients. Review the performance of the trial at designated sites, ensure the rights and well-being of human subjects are safeguarded and are in accordance with protocol.
  • Drive productivity. Develop patient recruitment strategies in conjunction with the clinical site to meet enrollment timelines while also Ensuring compliance with the approved standard operating procedures (SOPs), protocol/amendment(s), GCP, and the applicable regulatory requirement(s).
  • Ensure quality. Evaluate the quality and integrity of the reported data, site efficacy and drug accountability.
  • Execute. Monitor completeness and quality of Regulatory Documentation and perform site document verification.
