Senior Clinical Trial Manager
ŌURA
• Own end-to-end planning and execution of regulated clinical trials from study start-up through close-out, including feasibility analysis, development of clinical investigation plans, contracts and budgets, timelines, trial oversight, data quality monitoring, and overall study leadership and decision-making. • Contribute to clinical research strategy, ensuring alignment with intended indications, evidence generation plans, and applicable FDA and international regulatory requirements. • Lead sponsor-side CRO and vendor management across the full study lifecycle, including vendor selection, onboarding, governance, issue escalation, and closeout. • Provide guidance and lead escalations on complex clinical quality, CRO, or vendor performance issues, advising senior leadership to support sound, well-informed decision-making. • Partner closely across Science collaborators, Product, Engineering, Regulatory, Quality, Clinical Data Management, Legal, and external partners to align study execution with product, clinical, and regulatory goals. • Translate study requirements into operational plans, including protocol-related planning, study-specific documentation, training, reporting needs, and core study management tools such as dashboards, trackers, and decision logs. • Work closely with CROs and data management partners to ensure high-quality and auditable evidence generation across eCRFs, EDC build, data review workflows, data cleaning, and database lock. • Drive study-level strategic decision-making by proactively identifying emerging risks and challenges, developing scenario plans and contingency options, and proposing innovative solutions to keep trials on track when circumstances change. • Help strengthen and maintain Oura’s Quality Management System by contributing to SOPs, templates, work instructions, and repeatable study playbooks. • Identify systemic risks or gaps across the clinical portfolio, not just within a single study, and proactively recommend process changes to leadership. • Mentor and provide operational guidance to Clinical Trial Managers and Clinical Research Coordinators, supporting colleagues as they navigate escalations, ambiguity, and clinical research feedback.
