Patient Recruitment Strategy Lead

At Trialbee, we're on a mission to make clinical trials more accessible, inclusive, and efficient — connecting patients to the research that could change their lives. As Patient Recruitment Strategy Lead, you'll be the architect of how Trialbee approaches enrollment — translating patient insights, protocol complexity, and real-world data into strategies that actually work.

This is a role for someone who lives at the intersection of science, strategy, and storytelling — someone who can read a protocol, understand the patient journey behind it, and build a plan that gets trials enrolled on time. You'll work cross-functionally with operations, sales, product, and external partners to design best-in-class recruitment and retention plans for our clients' clinical trials.

What you'll do

• Develop patient recruitment and retention strategies aligned with client enrollment goals — globally scalable and operationally grounded

• Lead protocol assessments to identify target populations, eligibility challenges, and competitive landscape

• Use real-world data and historical performance to build data-driven funnel projections and recruitment plans

• Map the patient journey and standard-of-care pathways to design strategies that reduce barriers to participation

• Build multi-channel approaches spanning EHR, digital, social media, community outreach, registries, and recruitment partners

• Translate strategy into compelling client-ready proposals — clear rationale, channel mix, and projected outcomes

• Present recommendations to internal stakeholders and support bid-defense preparations

• Partner with operations, technology, and product to ensure strategies are executable within Trialbee's platform

• Contribute to a centralised library of therapeutic area and indication-specific content

Meet the team

This role sits within our commercial team, inside our Sales Operations function — the team that turns Trialbee's business strategies into real-world execution. You'll report into the Sales Operations leadership and work shoulder-to-shoulder with a group of experienced Directors and specialists spanning Trial Strategy, Partnerships, and Commercial Operations.

Who we're looking for

• 5+ years of experience in patient recruitment and retention across clinical trials

• Proven track record designing and implementing recruitment plans for complex studies across multiple therapeutic areas

• Hands-on experience with multi-channel recruitment — EHR, digital, social media, registries, community outreach

• Strong understanding of clinical development, GCP/ICH guidelines, and regulatory requirements

• Excellent analytical skills with the ability to translate data into clear, actionable strategy

• Outstanding communication and presentation skills — you can influence a room and write a compelling proposal

• Comfortable working cross-functionally in a fast-moving, global environment

• Bachelor's degree or higher; scientific or life sciences background preferred

• Curiosity about AI tools (ChatGPT, Claude, and beyond) — a genuine plus

Location

This is a fully remote role, open to candidates based anywhere in Europe.

Why you'll thrive here

• Purpose-driven work — every strategy you build helps connect patients to life-changing research

• A genuinely collaborative team where strategy, science, and creativity sit together

• The chance to define and standardise how Trialbee approaches recruitment strategy at scale

• Global scope with real impact across a diverse portfolio of therapeutic areas

• A people culture built on our values; Humble, Kind, Curious and Fun.
