About the role
We are looking to appoint 2 Senior Project Managers (SPM) on a fixed term basis to undertake specific maternity cover, the duration of which is dependent upon completion of the cover, return of the post holder or cessation of the funding, whichever is sooner.

The SPM will be responsible for managing a portfolio of trials and has line management responsibility for Trial Managers (TM) and Data Managers (DM) within their team.
