Step into early-phase and first-in-human Phase I clinical trials as a Medical Officer (Sub-Investigator).

You'll work alongside an experienced team of investigators, coordinators, nurses and pharmacists at an established Melbourne trials unit, providing high-quality medical care to participants.

• Conduct medical histories, physical examinations and review of screening results
• Manage participants throughout their time on study, prescribing within scope
• Contribute to a safe, high-quality and compliant trials operation

• Some on-call, around 1 weekend in 2
