Director Trial Strategy I Europe
Trialbee
At Trialbee, we're on a mission to make clinical trials more accessible, inclusive, and efficient — connecting patients to the research that could change their lives. As Director, Trial Strategy, you'll be at the heart of that mission — translating complex protocols, patient insights, and market realities into recruitment strategies that actually work.
This is a role for someone who thinks strategically and acts decisively. Someone who can read a protocol, understand the patient behind it, and build a plan that gets them to the trial. You'll bring deep therapeutic area expertise, sharp analytical instincts, and the ability to command a room — whether that's a client bid defense or a cross-functional planning session. You won't just advise on strategy. You'll own it.
This is a fully remote and globally connected role — we welcome candidates from across Europe.
This is how you will contribute
Develop patient recruitment and retention strategies aligned with sponsor objectives and Trialbee's capabilities
Evaluate protocols, patient populations, enrollment challenges, and competitive trial landscapes to identify risks and surface opportunities
Assess the patient journey, standard-of-care pathways, and lived patient experience to build recruitment plans that are genuinely patient-centric and reduce barriers to participation
Develop enrollment projections, patient funnel assumptions, and data-backed strategic recommendations
Define and present multi-channel recruitment approaches — spanning EHR, digital, social media, community outreach, patient registries, and recruitment partners
Lead client presentations, bid defenses, and strategic discussions as a credible, confident subject matter expert
Collaborate with Business Development, Omnichannel Partners, Operations, Product, and Marketing to ensure strategies are operationally feasible and commercially competitive
Contribute to Trialbee's therapeutic area expertise, strategic methodologies, and recruitment best practices
Leverage AI-enabled technologies to sharpen research, analysis, and strategic planning — while owning the recommendations that come from them
Who we're looking for
5–7 years of experience in patient recruitment, patient engagement, feasibility, clinical trial strategy, or a related clinical research function
A strong grasp of clinical development and patient recruitment methodologies, with experience building strategies across multiple therapeutic areas
Demonstrated expertise in one or more of: Cardiometabolic, Oncology, Immunology, or Neurology/CNS — and the ability to rapidly build working knowledge in new indications
Experience developing enrollment projections and patient funnel assumptions, and turning them into clear, defensible recommendations
In-depth knowledge of GCP/ICH and applicable regulatory guidelines
Strong analytical and critical-thinking skills, paired with the communication and presentation skills to bring stakeholders with you
The confidence and credibility to lead strategic conversations with clients and internal leaders alike
A collaborative mindset — you know that the best strategies are built with, not handed to, the teams who deliver them
Comfort with AI-enabled tools and a genuine interest in how technology can elevate strategic thinking
Bachelor's degree or higher in Life Sciences, Healthcare, Public Health, or a related discipline
