About the Role

We're looking to connect with clinical research professionals across a range of experience levels—from Study/Clinical Research Coordinators with 5+ years of experience through to CRA I, CRA II, and Senior CRAs—who are based in Australia or New Zealand and are either relocating or genuinely planning to relocate to Brisbane.

Joining our team means becoming part of a collaborative and supportive environment where you'll work on a variety of clinical studies and continue building your expertise. For Coordinators, it's a great opportunity to make the transition into monitoring with the support and development needed to succeed. For experienced CRAs, it's a chance to broaden your experience, take on new challenges, and further develop your career within a global organization dedicated to advancing innovative therapies for patients.

We're particularly interested in candidates who are excited about building their future in Brisbane. For the successful candidate, relocation assistance may be available to help support the move, depending on individual circumstances and business requirements.

• Ensure studies are conducted in accordance with ICH-GCP, regulatory requirements, and SOPs, safeguarding subject safety and data integrity
• Maintain audit readiness at all times
• Build strong, collaborative relationships with investigational sites
• Partner cross-functionally with Clinical Trial Managers, Study Start-Up, and Regulatory teams

What We’re Looking For

• Currently based in Australia or New Zealand, with confirmed plans or readiness to relocate to Brisbane
• Minimum 5+ years’ experience as a Clinical Study/Research Coordinator (sponsor-driven trials), or 6–12 months’ experience as a CRA
• Bachelor’s degree in life sciences, nursing, or related field
• Solid understanding of clinical trials and ICH-GCP guidelines
• Ability and willingness to travel extensively (70–80%)
