As a Clinical Trial Coordinator in the Experimental Cancer Medicine team specializing in early-phase commercial trials, I played a pivotal role in ensuring the seamless operation and execution of clinical trials.I served as the primary point of contact for various stakeholders, including the Research and Development team, study sponsors, clinical research organizations, and specific research teams. Direct communication with these stakeholders was vital for addressing data queries, coordinating monitoring visits, and managing inquiries relevant to trial setup and conduct.I contributed significantly to setting up and initiating allocated trials within my team. Financial management was a critical aspect of my role. I diligently tracked all payments throughout each clinical trial, maintained activity logs, and ensured timely generation of invoices.Adhering to International Conference on Harmonisation - Good Clinical Practice (ICH-GCP) guidelines and Trust Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), I meticulously maintained investigator site files and essential documentation to ensure compliance and readiness for inspections at all times. I also processed trial amendment submissions and provided administrative support for safety reporting in close collaboration with Clinical Research Nurses and Principal Investigators.Facilitating team and trial-related meetings, ensuring timely production of minutes, and maintaining up-to-date data availability were part of my routine responsibilities. I attended project-related and investigator meetings to effectively communicate relevant information to the study team.

During my tenure as a Clinical Trials Assistant, I had the opportunity to work on COVID-19 adaptive platform trials and Respiratory trials. Collaborating with a multidisciplinary team, I learned to expedite setup and management timelines, recognizing the importance of efficiency in such fast-paced environments. With tight deadlines, I maintained a meticulous approach, ensuring every task was completed thoroughly and promptly.Early on in the role, I identified a gap in our processes regarding the tracking of invoiceable items. Realizing the necessity for accuracy in invoicing for completed trial activities, I took the initiative to develop a robust tracker. This tool not only streamlined our workflow but also enabled us to accurately invoice for all trial-related expenses. Furthermore, I took on the responsibility of providing training to individuals outside my immediate team across three different hospitals. This experience allowed me to share valuable insights and foster collaboration beyond the confines of my own workplace. Through these efforts, I contributed to the success of our clinical trials and furthered my skills in project management and communication.
