Your Role:

 

In this role, you will be at the heart of clinical data integrity, responsible for the systematic surveillance of clinical study data to ensure accuracy, completeness, and reliability throughout the study lifecycle. Working closely with Data Managers and cross-functional study teams, you will define and execute centralized data quality review strategies, leveraging advanced surveillance tools to proactively identify data trends, anomalies, and quality signals — and translating these findings into actionable insights that drive informed decision-making. 

You will apply risk-based data quality principles to prioritize review focus areas based on protocol criticality and data complexity, performing surveillance across data outliers, site and country variability, data integrity issues, and fraud detection. You will conduct subject-level data reviews to identify and document inconsistencies in support of medical data review, and carry out serious adverse event reconciliation surveillance in line with established plans. Your findings will be communicated clearly to relevant stakeholders, with well-reasoned recommendations for corrective and preventive actions. 

Beyond day-to-day surveillance, you will lead improvement initiatives to advance data quality capabilities — including tools development, data visualization, and risk-based review methodologies. You will participate actively in cross-functional team meetings, provide analytical insights during study management and inspection activities, and serve as a mentor and point of support for newer team members. Your contributions will directly safeguard the integrity of clinical study data and strengthen the overall data quality standards of the organization.

  • You have solid knowledge of clinical trial data standards (including electronic and non-electronic case report forms) and regulatory guidelines such as ICH GCP. 
  • You are proficient in data analysis and visualization, with hands-on experience using data review and surveillance tools to identify trends, signals, and anomalies. 
  • You have a strong understanding of risk-based data quality principles and their practical application across the clinical trial lifecycle. 
  • You demonstrate strong analytical and problem-solving skills, applying sound scientific judgement to complex data quality challenges. 
  • You communicate findings and recommendations clearly and concisely, collaborate effectively across functions, and thrive working both independently and as part of a study team.
