Director of Clinical Operations - POWER : Job Details

About Power

At Power, we believe every patient should have easy access to clinical trials as a care option. Our platform connects patients to research opportunities quickly, transparently, and compassionately — helping sponsors and sites accelerate enrollment while improving diversity and retention.

We're growing fast and looking for a Director of Clinical Operations to lead the team that works directly with sponsors and sites to ensure recruitment success. This is a high-impact role where you'll be the bridge between our technology, our customers, and the patients we serve.

What You'll Do

• Lead and grow the Clinical Operations team responsible for executing patient recruitment programs for Phase 2/3 interventional studies across multiple therapeutic areas.
• Serve as the primary strategic partner to sponsors and sites, ensuring alignment on goals, timelines, and quality standards.
• Oversee the design, launch, and optimization of recruitment campaigns, ensuring targets for enrollment, diversity, and site engagement are met or exceeded.
• Develop operational playbooks and processes to scale quality, compliance, and security without sacrificing patient experience.
• Partner cross-functionally with Product, Data, and Marketing teams to ensure continuous improvement in recruitment performance.

• Proven track record of leading high-performing teams in a fast-paced, customer-facing environment.
• Analytical rigor: you aren't afraid of crunching data for your own insights, creating your own dashboards, or cracking open a SQL query
• Deep understanding of site workflows, sponsor priorities, and recruitment challenges in clinical trials.
• Strong operational mindset — able to design scalable systems while maintaining attention to detail.
• Exceptional communication skills and a consultative approach to customer relationships.
• Comfort navigating ambiguity and thriving in a high-growth startup environment.
