What you’ll do:

• Support the processing, tracking and filing of clinical study documentation.

• A minimum 2:1 achieved in your first year of study.
  

You’ll also bring:

• Strong written and verbal communication skills.
• Good organisation and time-management skills.
• Strong attention to detail and an ability to work accurately.
• Confidence using Microsoft Office, particularly Excel, Word and PowerPoint.
• A collaborative approach and willingness to learn.
  

Previous experience in clinical research or administrative support and/or a clinical or medical background would be an advantage, but is not essential.

What you’ll gain:

You’ll gain practical exposure to clinical study operations, clinical documentation, TMF/eTMF management and clinical trial systems, while developing valuable skills in coordination, stakeholder collaboration and project support.

The role is based in Leeds, UK, with flexibility to work remotely. Onsite working is preferred and may be required depending on business needs.

Johnson & Johnson announced plans to separate our Orthopaedics business to establish a standalone orthopaedics company, operating as DePuy Synthes. The process of the planned separation is anticipated to be completed within 18 to 24 months, subject to legal requirements, including consultation with works councils and other employee representative bodies, as may be required, regulatory approvals and other customary conditions and approvals. Should you accept this position, it is anticipated that, following conclusion of the transaction, you would be an employee of DePuy Synthes and your employment would be governed by DePuy Synthes employment processes, programs, policies, and benefit plans. In that case, details of any planned changes would be provided to you by DePuy Synthes at an appropriate time and subject to any necessary consultation processes.
