Join a enterprise Healthcare company as a CRA in Belfast.
Clinical trials don't run themselves.
Behind every new treatment that reaches patients sits a chain of data checks, site visits and compliance sign-offs, and that's where a CRA earns their keep.
This particular employer runs large-scale studies across multiple therapeutic areas, and Belfast has become one of its key regional hubs for clinical operations.
The CRA role sits close to the action.
You're not filing paperwork in isolation, you're the link between the sponsor and the clinical site, making sure trial data holds up to scrutiny.
Here's what you'll be doing: Conducting site visits across your assigned region to monitor trial progress and protocol compliance Reviewing source documents against case report forms to catch discrepancies early Writing up monitoring visit reports and tracking outstanding actions through to close-out Supporting site staff with training on study protocols and documentation standards Escalating safety concerns or data integrity issues to the clinical team without delay Maintaining the trial master file so it stays audit-ready at all times Here are the skills you'll need: A life sciences, nursing or related degree, plus some hands-on clinical research experience Working knowledge of ICH-GCP guidelines and how they apply in practice, not just on paper Sharp attention to detail.
Trial data doesn't forgive sloppy review Confidence talking to site investigators and clinical staff, some of whom will push back Comfortable managing your own diary across several active sites at once Willingness to travel within the region as site visits require Key perks and benefits: Salary of £28,000 to £42,000, depending on experience Hybrid working, split between site visits, home and the Belfast office Private medical and dental insurance from day one Enhanced pension scheme and performance-based bonuses Structured career development within an established industry leader Why pursue a career in Healthcare?
Clinical research isn't slowing down.
Demand for CRAs keeps climbing as more trials move through the pipeline, and Belfast has built a genuine reputation as a life sciences base worth working from.
Progress from CRA to senior CRA, then into project management, and the ceiling is high.
Few careers let you say your work directly shaped whether a treatment reached the people who needed it.
