Clinical Research Supervisor 1 - GU Program

We are looking to hire a Clinical Research Supervisor to help develop, shape and grow the clinical research team. The research program is a fast-paced environment and the successful candidate will be an independent, detail-oriented individual with drive and focus.

The candidate will be a proven leader with project management skills and mindset, experience in oncology clinical trials, and have the ability to consistently deliver results on a tight timeline. The candidate will have leadership skills and training experience to provide operational leadership to a group of Clinical Research Coordinators (~ 3-6 direct reports), while monitoring workload and productivity.

Under the direction of the Clinical Research Manager, the Clinical Research Supervisor is responsible for strategic planning in order to meet program goals, along with ensuring all reporting and study milestones are met including recruitment targets, data entry timelines, budget and sponsor requirements. This position also requires the candidate to be responsive to Principal Investigators and scientific oversight committees. Experience collaborating with senior leadership and research staff is a plus.

The success of the team is dependent on managing performance, maintaining morale, upholding consistency across disease programs in terms of workload and assignment management, as well as maintaining high quality customer service. To achieve service quality, the Clinical Research Coordinator Supervisor will work closely with staff to identify areas in need of training and development, review, and refreshers.

The Clinical Research Supervisor’s duties may also include, but will not be limited to supporting the management and coordinating the tasks of single or multiple clinical research studies (sponsored, cooperative group, and investigator-initiated studies), depending on their size and complexity; act as intermediary between services and departments while overseeing data and specimen management; manage and report on study results; create, clean, update, and manage databases and comprehensive datasets and reports; coordinate staff work schedules, help assure compliance with all relevant regulatory agencies; oversee study data integrity; implement and maintain periodic quality control procedures; interface with departments to obtain UCSF approval prior to study initiation; maintain relevant regulatory documents in partnership with the Regulatory department; report study progress to investigators; participate in any internal and external audits or reviews of study protocols; and perform other duties as assigned.
