Clinical Research Project Manager

About the Role

The Mass General Brigham Amyloidosis Program is a multidisciplinary clinical and research program focused on improving the diagnosis, characterization, and treatment of systemic and cardiac amyloidosis. Our research team at the Brigham and Women's Hospital includes physician investigators, medical imaging physicists, research fellows (fully trained cardiologists), a data analyst, and ten research assistants who recruit participants for our research projects.

We conduct a diverse portfolio of industry-sponsored, investigator-initiated, foundation-funded, and NIH-funded studies, including therapeutic clinical trials, imaging studies, biomarker and biobanking protocols, and multicenter national and international research collaborations. Several studies involve regulatory oversight, including IND-regulated investigations, and leverage advanced cardiovascular imaging modalities such as echocardiography, cardiac MRI, and nuclear imaging.

We envision this project manager serving as the operational lead for our research portfolio, overseeing study startup, regulatory compliance, budget and contract coordination, monitoring and audit readiness, and day-to-day project management across multiple active protocols. The individual would supervise and support research staff (the large team of research assistants), coordinate activities among investigators, sponsors, CROs, and institutional offices, and help ensure efficient execution of studies from initiation through closeout. The role will be central to maintaining a high-performing research infrastructure and supporting continued growth of the Amyloidosis Program across Mass General Brigham.
