Job Responsibilities
Clinical Project Manager II – Inflammation
Sponsor-Dedicated | Remote (U.S. only)
Are you a clinical project management professional who knows how to take ownership of a study from start-up through closeout — not just oversee it from a distance, but truly drive execution day-to-day?
This is a highly visible opportunity supporting a complex Phase 2b inflammation program within a fast-paced sponsor-dedicated environment where strong operational leadership, accountability, and execution matter. The ideal candidate is comfortable operating both strategically and tactically — someone who can lead cross-functional teams while also rolling up their sleeves and working in the details to keep a study moving forward.
If you thrive in high-accountability environments, can navigate ambiguity, and enjoy being deeply involved in clinical trial execution from start to finish, this role offers the opportunity to make a direct impact.
WHY THIS OPPORTUNITY
High-impact role supporting a complex Phase 2b inflammation study
Opportunity to lead regional execution efforts within a large global clinical program
Strong visibility across Clinical Operations, leadership, and external partners
Fast-moving environment where decisions and execution happen quickly
Significant ownership and autonomy with the expectation to independently drive study progress
Collaborative sponsor-dedicated culture with supportive leadership and strong team partnership
Opportunity to work alongside highly experienced clinical operations professionals in a hands‑on environment
WHAT YOU WILL OWN
End-to-End Clinical Trial Execution
Drive operational execution of a complex Phase 2b inflammation study from study start-up through database lock and closeout
Independently manage day-to-day study operations with minimal oversight
Own timelines, deliverables, risks, and issue resolution across multiple workstreams
Maintain deep operational awareness across all aspects of the trial - this is a role for someone comfortable working "in the weeds"
Ensure study milestones stay on track in a fast-paced environment with shifting priorities and competing demands
Partner cross-functionally to proactively identify risks, remove roadblocks, and implement operational solutions quickly
Vendor & CRO Oversight
Lead vendor management activities and maintain strong oversight of external partners and CROs
Contribute to RFP development, vendor selection, and ongoing vendor performance management
Hold vendors accountable to timelines, deliverables, quality expectations, and issue resolution
Actively manage operational follow-through rather than relying solely on escalation pathways
Cross-Functional Leadership
Lead cross-functional meetings with clear agendas, action-oriented discussions, and strong follow-up
Drive accountability across internal teams and external partners
Build strong collaborative relationships while effectively navigating challenging conversations and competing priorities
Mentor or support junior team members as needed
Operate confidently within a matrixed global environment with multiple stakeholders
Study Operations & Documentation
Draft, review, and coordinate key study documents including protocols, informed consents, monitoring plans, investigator brochures, and clinical study reports
Support study budget tracking, forecasting, and operational planning activities
Review data listings and support interim/final reporting activities
Train CROs, investigators, study coordinators, and vendors on protocol and study requirements
Contribute to SOP development, process improvement initiatives, and operational best practices
WHAT YOU BRING
Required Experience
3+ years of clinical project management experience within clinical research
Experience running clinical trials from start-up through closeout, with a strong understanding of the full clinical trial lifecycle
Experience supporting complex Phase 2b studies within the inflammation therapeutic area
Strong CRO/vendor management and oversight experience
Proven ability to independently drive study execution in fast-paced clinical environments
Experience managing cross-functional clinical trial activities within matrixed organizations
Comfortable balancing strategic oversight with hands‑on operational execution
Key Strengths
Highly organized with exceptional follow-through and attention to operational detail
Comfortable working in the weeds while still maintaining a high-level program perspective
Ability to prioritize effectively and pivot quickly in fast-moving environments
Strong meeting leadership, communication, and stakeholder management skills
Confident driving accountability across teams and vendors
Solutions-oriented mindset with strong initiative and urgency
High emotional intelligence and ability to navigate high-stakes conversations professionally
Collaborative, transparent, and team-oriented approach
Technical & Regulatory Expertise
Thorough knowledge of FDA and EMA regulations, ICH Guidelines, and GCP requirements
Strong working knowledge of Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint
Ability to interpret and explain protocol requirements, operational processes, and study expectations to teams and stakeholders
TEAM CULTURE
This team values collaboration, accountability, and execution. The environment is fast-paced, highly interactive, and best suited for individuals who enjoy being actively engaged in study operations rather than operating at a distance. Leadership is approachable, mentorship-focused, and supportive, while still maintaining high expectations around ownership and delivery.
The team works hard, communicates openly, and genuinely supports one another to keep studies moving forward successfully.
If you are looking for an opportunity where you can independently lead a complex clinical trial from start to finish, operate in a fast-paced environment, and play a hands‑on role in execution and delivery, this is an excellent next step in your clinical operations career.
At Syneos Health, we believe in providing an environment and culture in which Our People can thrive, develop and advance. We reward and recognize our people by providing valuable benefits and a quality-of-life balance.
