The Role

Are you interested in working directly for a single sponsor while having the security and additional career opportunities that working for a global CRO can bring? Our team says it’s the best of both worlds….

ClinChoice is a global full-service CRO with a strong focus on quality, professional development, and supportive culture. As a client-facing role, we are looking for confident candidates with the ability to work independently whilst establishing a high-trust environment with the client’s counterparts.  

We are seeking a motivated Data Scientist with hands-on R programming skills and clinical trial exposure to join one of our clients. The ideal candidate will have 2–3 years of experience working with clinical data and a strong foundation in statistical programming, data analytics, and visualization. This role offers an opportunity to work closely with cross-functional teams to support clinical data insights, reporting, and internal tool development.

Key Responsibilities

Clinical Data Transfer & Processing

  • Support Clinical Data Management teams in the development and implementation of Data Transfer Specifications (DTS) based on study and client requirements.
  • Assist in building and maintaining ETL pipelines to extract, transform, and load clinical trial data from EDC systems (Rave, Veeva, Medrio).
  • Develop and maintain R (and basic Python) scripts for data ingestion, transformation, validation checks, and dashboard refreshes.
  • Perform routine data quality checks to ensure data accuracy, integrity, and traceability.

Data Analytics & Visualization

  • Conduct clinical data analysis using R under guidance from senior team members.
  • Develop and maintain Power BI dashboards integrating EDC and external data sources (labs, MRI, ECG).
  • Support creation of data models for study-level and subject-level reporting.
  • Apply basic statistical techniques and visualization methods in R to analyze clinical datasets.
  • Assist with data harmonization and normalization across multiple clinical data sources.

Internal Tool & Automation Support

  • Contribute to the development and enhancement of internal tools supporting eCRF specification generation and clinical workflows.
  • Create reusable R scripts and functions to improve efficiency and standardization.
  • Assist in maintaining relational databases used for clinical data storage and reporting.
  • Support development of simple web interfaces (HTML, CSS, JavaScript) for internal tools.

Qualifications & Skills

  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Data Science, Statistics, Biostatistics, Computer Science, or a related field.
  • 2–3 years of experience working with clinical trial data in a pharmaceutical, biotech, or CRO environment.
  • Hands-on experience with R programming for data analysis, reporting, and visualization.
  • Working knowledge of Python, SQL, SAS, and Power BI.
  • Familiarity with EDC systems such as Rave, Veeva, or Medrio.
  • Basic understanding of clinical trial data domains, including biomarkers, imaging data, and patient-reported outcomes.
  • Exposure to relational databases and basic web technologies (HTML, CSS, JavaScript) is a plus.
  • Strong communication skills and ability to work collaboratively in cross-functional teams.
  • Willingness to learn and grow in a client-facing clinical data role.
