Looking for your next move - but want something different from traditional CRO life?
We're working with a
leading global CRO
that is expanding its Australian FSP team and is looking for experienced
CRA II and Senior CRAs
across Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Adelaide.
This is an opportunity to move into an
FSP model
, where you remain employed by the CRO but work closely with a dedicated sponsor team - giving you the scale and security of a global organisation alongside a much more focused day-to-day experience.
Why consider an FSP?
Work closely with one sponsor
Rather than constantly moving between different sponsors and projects, you'll have the opportunity to develop a deeper understanding of your sponsor, their processes and their clinical development programmes.
Build real sponsor-side exposure
You'll work as an extension of the sponsor's clinical team, giving you valuable insight into how a global pharmaceutical organisation operates.
International study exposure
Work on global clinical trials alongside international teams, with exposure to complex protocols and high-quality clinical research.
More consistency
The FSP model can provide greater continuity than traditional CRO project work, allowing you to become embedded within a team and build strong relationships.
You'll have the backing of a major CRO with established systems, technology, training, career frameworks and resources.
Whether your goal is to progress further as a Senior CRA, move towards Clinical Project Management, or explore other areas of clinical operations, you'll have access to structured development opportunities within a large global organisation.
What you'll be doing
Conducting monitoring activities across assigned clinical trials




Managing site relationships and supporting sites throughout the study lifecycle
Ensuring compliance with the protocol, ICH-GCP and applicable regulations
Performing SIVs, IMVs and close-out activities
Identifying and resolving site issues
Supporting study start-up and site activation activities where required
Working closely with the sponsor's clinical operations team
Maintaining high-quality documentation and trial records
Contributing to a collaborative, international study team
What we're looking for
CRA II
Previous CRA experience within a CRO, sponsor or similar clinical research environment
Experience independently managing monitoring activities (12 months+)
Strong understanding of ICH-GCP and clinical trial processes
Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills
Ability to work autonomously while contributing to a wider team
Senior CRA
Strong independent monitoring experience (4 years+)
Experience across complex clinical trials
Confidence managing site relationships and resolving issues
Strong understanding of clinical trial regulations and GCP
Ability to act as a trusted clinical contact for sites and study teams
Previous experience mentoring or supporting junior CRAs is advantageous
The chance
If you enjoy clinical research but are looking for
more consistency, closer sponsor interaction and the opportunity to become genuinely embedded within a global study team
, an FSP environment could be a great next step.
