Clinical Research Associate I

Precision Medicine Group is hiring a remote Clinical Research Associate I to join its clinical operations team in Italy, contributing to pioneering oncology and rare disease trials. If you want lower protocol loads, manageable travel, and a workplace where your perspective genuinely shapes outcomes, this role is built for you.

About the Role

This is a fully home-based Clinical Research Associate I position open to candidates located anywhere in Italy, with on-site monitoring visits to investigative sites. Precision Medicine Group is a CRO that does things differently: fewer concurrent protocols mean you can develop genuine protocol mastery, travel stays sensible, and your work-life balance holds steady. As a smaller organisation, we give CRAs real influence, hands-on support from direct line managers, and a culture reflected in retention rates well above the industry norm.

Key Responsibilities

• Oversee and take ownership of clinical study progress at investigative sites across Italy.
• Ensure trials are conducted, documented, and reported in line with the protocol, SOPs, ICH-GCP, and all applicable regulations and standards.
• Coordinate study set-up and monitoring activities, including identifying investigators and supporting regulatory submission preparation.
• Carry out pre-study and site initiation visits as well as ongoing monitoring visits.
• Spot potential study risks early and recommend practical mitigation strategies.

Qualifications

• A university degree in life sciences, pharmacy, or another health-related field — or equivalent scientific/healthcare experience, or licensure as a healthcare professional.
• A minimum of six months' experience as a CRA within a CRO, pharmaceutical, or biotech setting, or comparable relevant competencies.
• Oncology experience and CRA Certification.
• Availability for domestic travel with overnight stays, amounting to roughly 50–60% of your time.
• Fluency in both English and Italian.
• Preferred: a graduate or postgraduate qualification concentrated in a scientific or healthcare discipline.
