What you’ll do

  • Perform protocol-driven clinical procedures and assessments in line with GCP and internal SOPs.

  • Monitor participant safety, document adverse events, and escalate clinical concerns to Medical Officers.

  • Collect, process, and track biological samples, ensuring timely delivery and sample integrity.

  • Assist with study preparation tasks such as kit setup, labelling, documentation, and CRF data entry.

  • Train and mentor clinical staff in procedures and facility orientation.

  • Maintain clinical unit readiness, consumables, equipment, and general environment.

  • Participate in emergency response, resuscitation readiness, and safety procedures.

  • When designated in charge, supervise staff, manage shift handovers, allocate resources, and lead on-shift problem solving.

What you bring

  • APHRA-registered Division 1 Registered Nurse with 3+ years’ post-graduate experience.

  • Ability to independently supervise shifts and coordinate clinical activities.

  • Strong time-management, prioritisation, and documentation accuracy.

  • Confidence working in a structured, protocol-driven environment.

  • Ability to work both autonomously and collaboratively within multidisciplinary teams.

  • Professionalism, initiative, and flexibility across duties and working hours.

Nice to have

  • Knowledge of ICH-GCP and clinical trial processes.

  • Acute/ICU/CCU or high-acuity experience.

Fraud Alert

Candidate safety is a top priority at Planet Pharma. The industry has seen an increase in people falsely representing themselves as recruiters to gather personal information from job seekers. For your safety, do not provide sensitive data to anyone you have not spoken with thoroughly, never provide banking information during the application process and always double check the email address of the Recruiter to ensure it’s from an official Planet Pharma domain (@planet-pharma.com, @planet-pharma.co.uk, and @ppgadvisorypartners.com) and not a domain with an alternative extension like .net, .org or .jobs.
