SQL Implementation Associate in Cambridge

About the role

At TRI, our mission is to make Risk-Based Quality Management (RBQM) simple; making it accessible, understandable, and actionable for clinical trials of any scale and complexity. We develop innovative technologies and simplified solutions to empower research organizations and sponsors, ensuring the highest standards of trial integrity and participant safety.

Are you excited by the idea of improving how clinical trials are designed, built, and validated? Do you thrive in a fast-paced environment where precision, problem‑solving, and collaboration come together? We’re looking for a RBQM Implementation Associate to play a key role in supporting the RBQM Implementation Consultants during OPRA implementation including design, build, test and configuration setup and helping us deliver high‑quality, data‑driven solutions that advance clinical research.

As a key member of our RBQM Implementation team, you'll support our Implementation Consultants across core study build and quality activities, including:

• OPRA Study Implementation
• Assist with setup and review of OPRA studies across multiple OPRA environments.
• Review study specifications to ensure accuracy and completeness.
• Support the setup and/or review of study build sprints using Microsoft Azure DevOps.
• Create test data to support both unit testing and functional testing.
• Validate data mapping, custom calculated fields, row data lists and transformation rules during design & build — including running and interpreting SQL queries.
• Participate in functional test evidence reviews to ensure deliverables meet the required standards.

Your skills & qualifications

• Hands‑on experience with relational databases, ideally SQL, including writing multi‑table queries.
• Strong proficiency with advanced Excel functions.
• Understanding of clinical trial data structures, especially from EDC systems.
• Familiarity with Agile methodology and experience using collaborative tools (e.g., Azure DevOps).
• Strong communication skills and the ability to build positive relationships with internal and external stakeholders.
• A self‑starter mindset with a high level of ownership and accountability.
• Ability to thrive in a fast‑paced, results‑driven team environment.
• A commitment to delivering work that is accurate, consistent, and of high quality.

Benefits & compensation

• Salary - £38,000 - £42,000
• Flexible, remote-first working. You will be able to enjoy all the benefits of working from home, with access to coworking spaces close to you if required (via Hubble membership).
• Generous holiday as standard. We offer 27 days holiday, with a company shutdown between Christmas and New Year. Sometimes we also offer an extra, discretionary, paid day off to celebrate a specific company success.
• Extra holiday on top. For every full year you are with TRI, you will earn an extra day of holiday, up to a maximum of 30 days.
• Carefully considered, market-leading salaries. We regularly benchmark our salaries to make sure we are offering at the top end of the scale. You will have your salary reviewed annually.
• Enhanced pension offer. Following your probation period, you can opt in to our enhanced pension contributions arrangement. It’s a salary sacrifice scheme, paid on your full salary (not just the ‘qualifying amount’), which means you get better pension contributions alongside valuable tax and National Insurance savings.
• Health and wellbeing support. We offer all employees a health cash plan with Simply Health, allowing you to look after your health and wellbeing every day. Our Optimise Level 5 plan includes cash back for a huge range of health services including dental and optical, Virtual GP, face to face counselling and more.
• Life cover. You will be covered at four times your salary from day one, paid as a tax-free lump sum to your named beneficiary.
• In-person meetings and socials. We have regular team meet-ups throughout the year.
• Training and development. We make sure that you are able to reach your full potential with TRI by offering you access to training and development, plus regular reviews and goal-setting with your line manager.
