Lindus Health is building the next generation of biopharma by in-licensing clinical-stage therapeutic assets and developing them through an integrated, technology-first clinical trial infrastructure. The company has delivered 82% of sponsor trials on or ahead of timeline across 40+ completed trials in the US and Europe. Lindus is in-licensing 5-7 clinical-stage, Phase-2-ready assets funded from its balance sheet, with deal closes targeted through 2026 and first trials launching in H1 2027.
You will serve as Senior Director of Clinical Operations, taking personal ownership of the clinical delivery of one in-licensed asset from trial start-up through close-out. You will be accountable for that trial's clinical and regulatory execution, quality, and on-time, on-budget delivery. You will work closely day-to-day with the Clinical Program Manager running the trial and step in to make calls on safety, protocol interpretation, and trial methodology as needed.
Beyond your own asset, you will bring hands-on delivery experience to the wider portfolio, acting as a senior voice on standard operating procedures, quality standards, and systems. You will serve as a source of counsel for other trial teams and collaborate across the business with the Chief Medical Officer, ClinOps team (five assets), Director of Quality, and Product team. You report to the VP Operations.
Key responsibilities include: owning trial delivery for one asset with accountability for clinical and regulatory execution, quality, and budget; line-managing the Clinical Program Manager; proactively spotting and mitigating risks through the clinical development plan; building clinical operations and regulatory capability as trials become more complex and FDA-facing; raising the bar on monitoring, oversight, and quality across the ClinOps team; designing and inputting into ClinOps SOPs and processes across the portfolio in partnership with the Director of Quality; collaborating with tech and product teams on tool and system design (including Citrus); guiding, mentoring, and supporting professional development of the wider ClinOps team; and serving as senior authority on operational and quality decisions and sign-off across every trial in the portfolio, covering safety, trial design, proportionality, and essential trial documentation.
The role offers competitive salary plus meaningful stock options, 27 days annual leave plus 11 national holidays, health insurance through TriNet, $40 monthly wellness allowance, enhanced parental leave (16 weeks full pay for primary caregiver, 6 weeks for secondary), $2,000 annual learning and development allowance, gym and retail discounts, monthly lunch vouchers for remote teams, and charity partnership opportunities.
REQUIREMENTS:
- 15+ years in clinical operations with genuine hands-on delivery across multiple Phase 2 drug trials
- Experience with complex neurology trials in chronic indications, ideally Parkinson's disease
- Real, first-hand experience making clinical, quality, and safety judgment calls in real time across a range of trials
- Track record of senior review and sign-off on essential trial documents (monitoring plans, RAMPs, protocol deviations, eTMF readiness)
- Proportionate, risk-based approach to clinical oversight—focusing on what is actually risky rather than box-ticking
- Track record of contributing to or leading SOP and process design at portfolio or function level, not just following existing processes
- Broad experience across trial types, phases, and therapeutic areas with judgment to advise junior operators without taking decisions away from them
- Comfort shaping the tools you work in, not just using them—you have influenced how trial systems (EDC, CTMS, eTMF) are built
- Energized by portfolio-wide authority role shaping safety, process, and clinical judgment across every asset, and equally comfortable getting hands-on running a trial
- Experience across multiple regulatory jurisdictions (FDA preferred)
