About The Position

We are seeking a proactive and detail-oriented Project Manager to support the delivery of pathology-focused clinical trial projects at Diagnexia Analytix. Sitting under the Clinical Trial Manager, this role will act as the operational driver of projects — ensuring that timelines, deliverables, and quality standards are met across complex, multi-stakeholder clinical studies. The Project Manager will not design the science, but will make sure the science happens: coordinating vendors, labs, pathologists, and internal teams, while keeping communication clear and projects audit-ready.

Requirements

• Degree in life sciences, biomedical sciences, or a related discipline.
• 3–5 years’ experience in clinical trial project management, CRO operations, or translational/biomarker projects.
• Strong knowledge of GCP/GCLP and ICH E6 standards.
• Proven ability to deliver multi-stakeholder projects on time and within scope.
• Excellent organizational skills; able to manage multiple vendors, labs, and deliverables.
• Strong communication skills, with experience preparing reports, dashboards, and running status calls.
• Ability to anticipate issues, escalate appropriately, and drive solutions.
• Proficiency with project management tools (e.g., Smartsheet, MS Project, Asana) and shared document platforms.

Nice To Haves

• Exposure to pathology, histology, or biomarker assay workflows.
• Experience coordinating pathologists and pathology vendors.
• Familiarity with digital pathology platforms (WSI, image hosting, secure data transfer).
• Therapeutic area experience in oncology, immunology, or liver disease trials.
• Formal PM certification (PMP, PRINCE2) or Lean/Agile training.
• Strong interpersonal skills: able to “manage up” to senior stakeholders while motivating delivery teams.
• Experience in a scale-up/fast-growing environment.

Responsibilities

• Translate Statements of Work (SoWs) into actionable project plans, timelines, and trackers.
• Manage day-to-day execution, logistics, and operational workflows.
• Oversee sample flow, staining, scanning, and digital pathology processes.
• Pathologist Management, training and communication
• Serve as a central point of contact between sponsor, CRO, central labs, and internal teams.
• Organize and document sponsor calls, training sessions, consensus/adjudication meetings.
• Maintain action logs, decision records, and issue escalation pathways.
• Ensure all activities follow GCP/GCLP, ICH E6, and regulatory standards.
• Support preparation of validation reports, pathology manuals, final study reports, and archival outputs.
• Track QC metrics, deviations, CAPA actions, and maintain audit readiness.
• Maintain a risk register for timelines, logistics, and deliverables.
• Coordinate structured change control processes when scope or timelines shift.
