As a Senior Clinical Data Management Professional you will lead end-to-end data management for global clinical trials, helping ensure high-quality data from protocol development through submission.

You will combine hands-on trial leadership with strategic thinking, bringing functions and partners together to manage complexity, strengthen data quality and develop better ways of working.

Experience leading trials or projects in an international environment with increasing complexity

Strong project management and stakeholder management skills

A good understanding of data management processes, clinical data flow, Good Clinical Practice (GCP) and regulatory requirements

Fluency in written and spoken English

You bring analytical rigour, accountability and sound judgement to your work. You are also comfortable challenging established ways of working and contributing to innovative solutions or new methodologies.

Who you'll work with

You will join Clinical Data Management within Clinical Data Management & Programming, a global organisation responsible for the planning, execution, quality and delivery of clinical trial data across Novo Nordisk's development portfolio.

Your work will connect you with Project Clinical Data Managers, project leadership, cross-functional colleagues and external partners. Together, you will manage data from protocol development through database lock and regulatory submission, while contributing to cross-trial alignment and effective data strategies.

What you can expect here

You will have the opportunity to work with global clinical trial portfolios where your expertise can directly shape how complex clinical data is planned, collected and delivered. You will be able to contribute ideas, challenge existing approaches and help develop better ways of working while collaborating across functions and geographies.

How we calculate "similar"

No black box, no LLM guesswork: a deterministic score built from four normalized attributes. Here's this role's own peer group at different match levels, so you can see the mechanism, not just the result.

Every comparison starts from the same 100-point budget: 25 for working in the same function, 40 for the same therapeutic area, 20 for the same or adjacent seniority, 15 for the same country. A dimension we can't confirm on both sides contributes nothing, never a guess, never a free pass.

Unmatched or unknown dimensions score exactly the same: 0 points, never a partial guess. A role we know almost nothing about beyond its function bottoms out at 25%; it never inflates to 100% just because there's little to compare against. Seniority uses a defined ladder (Associate → Manager → Associate Director → Senior → Principal → Director → Senior Director → Executive/VP) so "Director" and "Senior Director" count as adjacent, but "Director" and "Executive/VP" do not.
