Associate Director, Data Management in Cambridge

As a member of the Parabilis Medicines team, you will be a part of an organization dedicated to creating extraordinary medicines for diseases with urgent unmet needs, harnessing our proprietary peptide platform to transform treatment possibilities for patients. Parabilis is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company dedicated to unlocking high-impact protein targets long-considered undruggable.

The company has developed a new class of stabilized, cell-penetrant alpha-helical peptides – Helicons™ – capable of modulating intracellular proteins that are inaccessible to traditional drug modalities. Headquartered in Cambridge, Mass., Parabilis is advancing a focused pipeline of multiple first-in-class therapies across both rare and common cancers.

Its lead asset, zolucatetide (FOG-001), is a first-in-class, clinically validated direct inhibitor of the interaction between β-catenin and the T-cell factor (TCF) family of transcription factors, implicated in millions of cancer cases annually, including in colorectal cancer, desmoid tumors, hepatocellular carcinoma and a range of other Wnt/β-catenin-driven tumors. In Phase 1 clinical trials, zolucatetide produced the first-ever clinical evidence that it can directly inhibit this interaction, once previously considered “undruggable” despite its role across multiple cancer types.

Parabilis is also advancing investigational degraders of ERG and ARON into clinical development for the treatment of prostate cancer, as well as progressing other preclinical programs. Backed by a recent $305 million Series F financing, Parabilis is entering an exciting phase of growth and execution.

• Drive vendor oversight, study execution, and cross-functional coordination to ensure timelines, budgets, and quality expectations are met.
• Establish and enhance data management standards, SOPs, and processes to ensure compliance with GCP, ICH, and regulatory requirements.
• Provide strategic input into resource planning, budgeting, and continuous improvement initiatives across the function.

What you’ll need to be successful:

• Bachelor’s degree (or higher) in life sciences, mathematics, or related field.
• 10+ years of clinical data management experience in biotech, pharmaceutical, or CRO environments.
• Demonstrated experience leading multiple studies and/or programs, including vendor oversight.
• Prior people management experience strongly preferred.
• Previous experience leading a Phase 3 trial and interactions or readiness for Health Authority interactions.
• Strong knowledge of GCP, ICH guidelines, FDA regulations, and clinical data standards.
• Experience with EDC systems (e.g., Veeva, Medidata RAVE) and CDISC standards (CDASH, SDTM, ADaM).
• Experience working with data visualization and query tools.
• Proven leadership, strategic thinking, and problem-solving skills.
• Excellent communication and cross-functional collaboration abilities.
• Demonstrated ability to utilize AI tools for day-to-day work; baseline proficiency is expected, and advanced or innovative use of AI is a strong plus.
