What are the responsibilities and job description for the Sr. Clinical Trial Manager position at Frontier Medicines?
Frontier Medicines is seeking two Sr. Clinical Trial Managers to support the day-to-day execution of our oncology clinical trials as they advance through clinical development.

● Assist with oversight of CRO and vendor set-up, liaising with CROs to ensure timely study initiation.
● Review site-level regulatory documents (e.g., Informed Consent Forms, essential documents) and escalate to appropriate stakeholders as needed.
● Help ensure inspection readiness, TMF quality, and adherence to protocol and regulatory requirements.
● Proactively identify potential operational challenges and, in partnership with senior team members, propose mitigation plans to keep study execution on track.
● Assist with review of protocols, master template informed consent forms, case report forms, and other clinical study documents as needed.
● Monitor study performance metrics, timelines, and deliverables, and review CRO trip reports for trends and quality issues.
● Track study budgets and vendor invoices/change orders in partnership with Clinical Operations and Finance, flagging discrepancies as needed.
● Help maintain timely and accurate study registration and updates on ClinicalTrials.gov and other applicable registries.
● Coordinate Clinical Trial Team meetings and drive action item follow-up.
● Maintain clinical operations trackers, databases, and document repositories.
● Provide regular study updates to internal stakeholders and support enrollment, database lock, and study closeout activities.

● Bachelor's degree in a scientific, healthcare, or related field, or an RN, required.
● 5-7 years of Clinical Trial Manager/SCTM or Clinical Project Management experience, ideally supporting oncology clinical trials.
