Clinical Trial Manager, Clinical Operations

Do you want to join a motivated, focused global development team, work within our strong portfolio, and make a difference to patients living with brain disease? Are you motivated by having the opportunity to bring new innovative treatments to patients, especially in those rare indications where no treatments exist and contribute to advancing brain health and transforming lives globally? Are you enthusiastic about working with clinical trials in an international environment? If so, then you could be our new Global Clinical Trial Manager.

Your new role

You will be an essential part of our global Clinical Operations team. As a Clinical Trial Manager, you will lead a global cross-functional trial management team of colleagues from relevant Clinical Research & Development functions. You will work closely with stakeholders from different professional, geographical, and cultural backgrounds across the organisation and externally with clinical experts, patient advocacy groups, and clinical research organisations (CROs), as we deliver the clinical trial portfolio in an outsourced model.

As Clinical Trial Manager, you are the primary point of contact for our vendors/CROs for the effective execution of our clinical trials. You will be responsible for their oversight and management, their deliverables in collaboration with your Lundbeck colleagues, and for delivering high-quality trial execution within timelines and budget. As we constantly seek to improve, you will contribute to optimising our clinical trial processes.

The role is based at Lundbeck’s headquarters in Copenhagen, Denmark. Approximately 20 travel days per year are expected.

Your future team

You will join our team of more than 35 colleagues who take pride in cross-functional collaboration and share the aspiration to become world-class in trial execution.

Our work environment is characterised by people empowerment, where you are expected to act and ensure progress to reach results. We focus on the individual's well-being and offer flexible working conditions while prioritising social activities to build an engaging and informal culture.
