[Hiring] Site Contracts Associate I/II @Parexel

Role Description

Parexel is looking for an experienced Site Contract Associate I/II to join the team in Serbia. You’ll be the driving force behind the agreements that make clinical trials possible. If you thrive on negotiation, communication, and keeping complex processes running smoothly, this is your chance to shine in an organisation that always puts the patient first and does it with heart. This is a homebased role but you must be living in Serbia. Business level fluency in GERMAN language is a requirement, as well as Serbian and English.

What You’ll Do:

• Become the go-to expert for site agreements, ensuring every contract supports the success of clinical trials across your region.
• Draft and negotiate contracts — clinical study agreements, service agreements, team member agreements, and related documents.
• Interpret site feedback within local legal and business frameworks to guide internal decision-makers.
• Ensure compliance with ICH-GCP, local laws, and internal guidelines.
• Act as the communication hub between internal teams, site staff, and external partners.
• Manage the full contract lifecycle — from first draft to final signature and archival.
• Build strong relationships with clinical trial sites and internal stakeholders.
• Spot risks early and collaborate with the Site Contract Lead to resolve them.
• Track progress in real time and keep teams informed.
• Drive process improvements to make contracting faster, clearer, and more efficient.

Qualifications

• Strong negotiation skills and the diplomacy to navigate complex conversations.
• Excellent written and verbal communication.
• A talent for problem-solving and analytical thinking.
• The ability to work confidently in a virtual, global team.
• Grace under pressure and a polished, professional presence.
• A sharp eye for detail and a commitment to quality.
• Fluency in GERMAN required.
• Solid proficiency in MS Office (Word, Excel, PowerPoint).

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in law, economics, business, social sciences, or a related field.
• No prior industry experience required for Level I.
• Level II requires experience in Life Sciences.

Why This Role Matters

Every clinical trial depends on clear, compliant, and timely agreements. As an SCA, you’ll help ensure research teams can focus on what matters most: bringing new treatments to patients who need them.
