Job Description

The ADVANcing Clinical Evidence in Infectious Diseases Network (ADVANCE-ID) is seeking a highly motivated and experienced Clinical Trial Project Manager to oversee the coordination and implementation of the ACORN-HAI study—a multi-centre, international, patient-centred surveillance project targeting healthcare-associated infections due to antimicrobial resistance (AMR).

ADVANCE ID is jointly funded by the Wellcome Trust and Singapore institutions including the Saw Swee Hock School of Public Health and Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine, National University of Singapore.

The vision of the Network is to improve public health by developing the clinical evidence base for the prevention and treatment of drug-resistant infections.

Its mission is to build and sustain a strategic clinical research network focussed on most efficiently delivering locally relevant interventions for drug-resistant infections.

The Network aims to improve and strengthen clinical research capabilities in the region by acting as a platform to develop good principles and practices.

It will stabilise capacity and capabilities to mitigate inefficiencies in trial start-up phase and loss of skillset following study closure, as in typical trial setup.

The Network will continuously develop its capabilities, quality and efficiency by learning from and collaborating with other clinical trial networks.

In the long term, the Network aims to support broader infectious disease studies by expanding geographically beyond its original starting point in South East Asia and collaborating with other networks around the world.

It will function as an active network that involves patients in platform trials, allowing for rapid clinical research response in the event of an emerging infectious disease or pandemic threat.

Duties & Responsibilities
Project Management:
• Lead and manage day-to-day operations of the ACORN-HAI study across multiple international sites.
• Develop and maintain project plans, timelines, risk logs, and deliverables to ensure smooth trial start-up and execution.

Regulatory & Ethics Coordination:
• Support sites in obtaining and maintaining ethics and regulatory approvals.
• Ensure compliance with Good Clinical Practice (GCP), local regulations, and institutional SOPs.

Team & Site Coordination:
•Oversee and support local teams in participant recruitment, site monitoring, and data quality assurance.
•Facilitate regular communication and collaboration between clinical sites, microbiology labs, and data centres.

Capacity Building:
•Contribute to regional training and development initiatives aimed at strengthening microbiology and clinical research capabilities.
•Support the development of SOPs, manuals, and training materials.
Monitoring & Quality Assurance:
•Ensure adherence to study protocols and timely resolution of queries and deviations.
•Conduct or support site monitoring visits and audits as required.

Data & Systems:
•Work with data management and IT teams to support electronic data capture (EDC) platforms, data integrity, and secure sharing processes.
•Track and report project metrics to stakeholders and funders

Qualifications

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Life Sciences, Public Health, Nursing, Pharmacy, or related field.
• At least 3–5 years of experience managing or coordinating clinical research projects, ideally in a multi-country or infectious diseases setting.
• Strong understanding of clinical research regulations, GCP, and ethical principles.
• Excellent project management, organisational, and communication skills.
• Ability to work independently and across diverse, multi-disciplinary, and multicultural teams.
• Experience in antimicrobial resistance (AMR), microbiology, or surveillance studies is a plus.
