Abstract:
Clinical trial managers are central to the successful design and delivery of clinical trials, making them crucial within the research landscape. Yet, despite their vital contribution, many trial managers report feeling undervalued, under-supported, and insufficiently recognised for the expertise they bring to their teams. Unlike other research roles, there is no clearly defined career pathway for trial managers, and opportunities for professional growth are often limited. In the UK, those working on academic-led trials are usually employed within universities or NHS trusts, frequently based in UKCRC-registered Clinical Trials Units. In this article, we provide practical guidance for both trial managers and their employers on how to strengthen professional development opportunities and better support this essential workforce.
