Senior Clinical Process Manager

Location: Gdansk 80-309, Poland 
Contract type: Permanent 
Job ID: 4511 

We are looking for two highly motivated Senior Clinical Process Managers to drive continuous improvement across Global Clinical Development (GCD). This role focuses on optimizing processes, systems, and tools while working closely with internal stakeholders and external partners. While we are primarily looking for senior-level profiles, we are also open to considering candidates with less extensive experience who demonstrate strong potential, the right mindset, and a willingness to learn and grow in the role.

Join us in creating a future legacy in medical dermatology 

At LEO Pharma, we are global leaders in medical dermatology. We have 115 years’ experience in bringing innovation to healthcare. And we are eager to do much more. Each year, close to 100 million people have a better day because of our medicines. LEO Pharma is headquartered in Denmark in Ballerup and has a hub in Gdansk, Poland.

In our Clinical Process Management team, we share a “challenge accepted” mindset and are guided by our winning behaviors of simplification, collaboration, accountability, while applying a pragmatic mindset to the way we work and deliver impact.

Your role 

As a Senior Clinical Process Manager, you will play a key role in improving operational performance, supporting organizational changes, and enabling the use of AI and automation to enhance efficiency and compliance across GCD. The role can be performed remotely, but it will be an advantage if you are based near Gdansk and able to join the hub when relevant. The position also includes some travel activity, approximately 5–6 trips per year, primarily to Ballerup to facilitate workshops and collaborate with key stakeholders.

Your key responsibilities include: 

• Drive continuous process improvements across systems, tools, and workflows 
• Lead and support process improvement initiatives end-to-end 
• Leverage AI-driven insights and automation to improve efficiency and performance 
• Support the onboarding, integration, and transition of new assets or divestments by ensuring effective knowledge transfer, operational readiness, and minimal disruption to ongoing activities 
• Design and improve compliant processes across internal teams and outsourced partners 
• Proactively capture, share, and communicate lessons learned and best practices across the organization 
• Prepare and deliver updates and recommendations to Steering Committees and Leadership Teams 
• Support operational excellence through strong stakeholder engagement 
• Support quality and compliance activities (e.g. Change Controls and CAPAs), including monitoring external regulatory requirements
• Facilitate workshops and drive structured cross-functional collaboration to support process improvements and project execution 
• Drive and support continuous improvement governance boards, including preparing materials, facilitating discussions, and following up on actions and decisions

Your qualifications 

To succeed in this role, we imagine that you have the following qualifications: 

• Master’s degree in science or related field 
• 5–8 years’ experience within clinical drug development 
• Strong knowledge of GCP (including clinical trial supply), drug development processes, and clinical systems (EDC, CTMS, eTMF)
• Advanced proficiency in MS Word, Excel and PowerPoint 
• Experience with SharePoint is considered an advantage
• Knowledge of and/or experience with Quality Management processes
• Fluent in English (written and spoken) 
• Excellent stakeholder management and communication skills 
• Strong project management and facilitation skills
• Experience in running continuous improvement governance boards
• Demonstrated ability to drive results, adapt to change, and influence others

Your New Team 

You will join a team dedicated exclusively to process optimization within clinical trials, with a strong focus on end-to-end processes. This means we work closely with a wide range of relevant functions, including Regulatory, Safety, and the project organization, to ensure effective and compliant ways of working across the clinical development value chain. We are a small team characterized by a high degree of trust, a positive atmosphere, continuous learning across the team, and a collaborative mindset built on openness and curiosity towards new ways of working.
