🍊Our mission

We're powering biology's century with radically faster, more reliable clinical trials. Every new treatment needs clinical trials to prove safety and efficacy, but today's infrastructure is stuck in the past- driving up cost, causing delays and ultimately meaning new treatments don’t get to patients. We're fundamentally changing that- not just being a "better CRO," but transforming how people think about developing new treatments, so patients can access breakthrough treatments faster.

Our impact speaks for itself: Since March 2021, we've powered 100+ clinical trials involving tens of thousands of patients. We recently raised a $55M Series B from Balderton Capital, alongside backing from Creandum, Firstminute, Seedcamp, and Visionaries.

🍊What's it like to work here?

When you join us, you’ll experience:

• High-Impact, Mission-Driven Work: Lindus is disrupting an outdated industry, giving you the chance to directly improve patients’ lives and see tangible results from your work.

• Fast-Paced Growth & Ownership: We recognise hard work and outcomes over anything else. You’ll take on real responsibility, work across different areas, and actively shape the company’s success.

• Collaborative, No-Ego Culture: Work with smart, driven people in a supportive and informal environment. At Lindus we break down silos, fun is a core value, and creativity is encouraged.

Ready to power biology's century? We'd love to hear from you.

🍊 About the Role

We’re looking for an (Associate) Director of Data Management to lead the quality, compliance, and modernisation of data management practice across Lindus' clinical trial portfolio. Reporting to the VP of Data, you’ll bridge deep clinical data expertise with a forward-looking approach to technology, embedding AI-assisted ways of working and building the technical capabilities of an experienced team.

You’ll own data quality across the full trial lifecycle, from the integrity of data collection through to the handover of clean, analysis-ready datasets. You’ll carry direct management responsibility for a geographically distributed team of senior and mid-level data managers across the UK and US, developing them through deliberate coaching and structured development.

This is a hands-on leadership role with significant scope. You’ll set the standard for what excellence looks like in clinical data management at Lindus, partner closely with Biostatistics, Deployment, Clinical Operations, Product, and Quality, and play a central role in shaping Citrus, our end-to-end clinical trial delivery platform.

🍊 About You

We’d like to hear from you if…

• You bring 8+ years of experience in clinical data management or a closely related field within pharma, biotech, or a CRO environment.

• You have a demonstrated track record of developing and mentoring others, whether through formal line management or senior, hands-on technical leadership.

• You’ve introduced new technology or ways of working within a clinical data team before, and you have the change management skills to drive adoption effectively across an experienced team.

• You have strong working knowledge of relational databases and report building, and you’ve applied these skills practically in a clinical data management context.

• You bring deep applied knowledge of data standards (e.g. CDASH, SDTM) and can apply them confidently in a modern data environment.

• You’ve supported regulatory inspections or audits, and you understand what good documentation and inspection-readiness look like in practice.

• Experience introducing or overseeing AI or ML tools in a regulated clinical setting is preferred (e.g. LLM-assisted data review, automated discrepancy detection).

• Prior experience in a high-growth or startup environment is advantageous; comfort operating with ambiguity and shifting priorities is essential.

• You embody Lindus Health values: Be Transparent, High Agency, and Benefit Patients.

🍊 What You’ll Focus On

Team Leadership and Development

• Lead and develop a geographically distributed team of senior and mid-level data managers, building technical capability and fostering a culture of quality and transparency.

• Define what excellence looks like in data management practice and invest in the team’s development to deliver against that standard.

• Establish and advance SOPs, training programmes, and ways of working that scale with a growing portfolio.

• Lead the growth of the team through active hiring and headcount planning, ensuring resourcing meets current and near-term study needs.

Operational Delivery

• Manage data quality standards across the full trial lifecycle, ensuring data collected is accurate, complete, and fit for analysis.

• Oversee data management activities across all trials, from protocol review through database lock and data transfer.

• Ensure data management processes and outputs meet CDISC standards, including CDASH and SDTM.

• Act as the escalation point for complex data quality issues and sponsor queries.

• Represent the data management function in quality audits and inspections.

Modern Tooling and AI

• Embed AI-assisted approaches to data quality within the team’s day-to-day workflows, operating within an appropriate governance framework.

• Identify opportunities to automate repetitive data management workflows, leading the team to implement where possible and escalating platform-level requirements to the Product team.

• Implement modern data tooling across the team, including cloud-based data platforms and programmatic approaches to data management.

Cross-Functional Partnerships

• Partner with the Deployment team to establish best practices for study builds that yield trustworthy, high-quality data, and uphold those standards across Citrus, Lindus’s end-to-end clinical trial delivery platform.

• Partner with Biostatistics to ensure data quality standards support analytical requirements and the handover of analysis-ready datasets.

• Partner with Clinical Operations to establish clear touchpoints for DM involvement across the study lifecycle, ensuring data management expertise informs site workflows, monitoring strategies, and data collection decisions early and consistently.

• Inform Product team priorities by translating data management needs and trial delivery insights into clear product requirements for Citrus.

• Partner with Quality to ensure data management processes meet compliance standards and are inspection-ready.
