About Jessica

I am a Clinical Operations Leader with
- over 15 years of professional experience in Clinical Operations
- over 12 years in Oncology
- over 12 years of people management, including over 6 years in departmental leadership
- over 6 years in Cell and Gene Therapies
- TÜV certified as Manager for Applied AI Transformation

In 2023, I became self-employed as a Senior Consultant with Clinical Excellence GmbH.

My Experience:

As Head of Department, I built a global Clinical Operations team where team members worked in the office and remotely.

Here, I recruited team members in Germany and the USA, both on-site and remotely, conducted onboarding, and fostered a globally aligned team mentality.
Additionally, I optimized processes to:
- improve GCP compliance/inspection readiness
- increase efficiency and effectiveness in Clinical Operations
- conduct ATMP studies
- prepare for 'late stage' clinical studies

As a Clinical Project Manager, I selected and supervised study sites and service providers, ensured the timely setup of clinical studies, and planned and monitored the budget for clinical studies.

Here, I collaborated effectively with interdisciplinary teams to:
- plan clinical studies
- implement processes and documentation for clinical studies
- conduct clinical studies according to GCP, timeline, and budget
- complete clinical studies
