Job description
QLD | Medical & Scientific Leadership
If you enjoy the science behind medicine as much as the practice of it, this could be a compelling next step.
Onsite Positions Available: QLD and NSW
We are partnering with an established clinical trials organisation seeking Principal Investigators across NSW and QLD to provide medical and scientific leadership across innovative early-phase studies.
This opportunity may suit an experienced Principal Investigator, or a Medical Officer, Senior Medical Officer or Sub-Investigator already working within early-phase clinical research who is ready to take on broader investigator responsibility.
The Opportunity
You will work closely with clinical, scientific and operational teams to oversee the safe and successful delivery of early-phase clinical trials, including:
- Acting as Principal Investigator across assigned studies
- Reviewing protocols, Investigator Brochures and emerging scientific data
- Providing medical oversight of participant eligibility, safety and adverse events
- Contributing to study feasibility, protocol interpretation and key clinical decisions
- Working directly with pharmaceutical, biotechnology and CRO partners
- Supporting and mentoring medical and clinical team members
- Ensuring studies are conducted to the highest ethical, regulatory and ICH-GCP standards
About You
You will ideally bring:
- A recognised medical degree – MBBS, MD, MBChB or equivalent
- Current unrestricted AHPRA registration
- Strong clinical judgement and confidence in medical decision-making
- A genuine interest in clinical research, drug development and emerging therapies
- The ability to engage comfortably with multidisciplinary scientific and clinical teams
Experience as a PI, Sub-Investigator, Medical Officer or Senior Medical Officer within Phase I / early-phase research would be highly regarded.
A Master’s, PhD or other research qualification would also be advantageous, but is not essential where strong clinical research experience is demonstrated.
Why This Role?
This is an opportunity to work at the point where science becomes clinical evidence.
You will have the chance to contribute to the development of new therapies, engage with innovative sponsors and research teams, and combine your medical expertise with a broader scientific and investigative career path.
Opportunities available across NSW and QLD.
