This is an ongoing full-time position, although part-time applicants may be considered. The role is based at Monash Health Translation Precinct, Clayton.

Clinical Trials Pharmacy offers a unique opportunity to contribute to innovative research while remaining focused on patient care. You'll help ensure patients participating in clinical trials have safe access to investigational medicines and emerging therapies.
