Tempus' proprietary platform connects an entire ecosystem of real-world evidence to deliver real-time, actionable insights to physicians, providing critical information about the right treatments for the right patients, at the right time.

STUDIES is the business segment of Tempus that oversees active, IRB-approved, observational platform studies designed to capture high-quality, longitudinal datasets to help answer critical questions through clinical development. Tempus' proprietary platform connects an entire ecosystem of real-world evidence from electronic medical record systems to deliver actionable insights to external clients, providing information about the right treatments for the right patients, at the right time.

What you’ll do

To support our expansion efforts, we are looking to add to our team a person that is experienced in clinical abstraction and large project operations. The role will require wearing many hats and Tempus is looking for an individual that is able to coordinate, grow and maintain the abstraction effort, ensuring abstraction processes are run efficiently and data is captured at the highest quality level while meeting project expectations.

As a Clinical Data Project Manager (CPM), you will be responsible for managing the data abstraction team that supports the clinical data abstraction for the Studies pipeline. Abstractors review clinical records and structure key data elements into an electronic data capture (EDC) system in alignment with Tempus abstraction rules. The CPM will be responsible for clearly articulating project updates to key stakeholders and collaborate with the Studies team to support transparency and process improvement. You will work closely with the Clinical Studies Manager. This is an ideal position for someone with both a scientific / clinical and a project management background who is interested in working at the crossroads of healthcare technology and data analysis to solve some of today’s most challenging medical questions. 

Responsibilities:

  • Answer escalated cases-specific inquiries that requires clinical expertise/knowledge and ability to apply said knowledge to proprietary data abstraction guidelines 
  • Assist and oversee training of new abstractors and quality analysts on established and/or new cancer subtypes in conjunction with Studies Data Management team.
  • Maintain abstraction quality by developing, interpreting and tracking standards for accuracy of data and implementing corrective action plans as necessary.
  • Ensure data capture is in alignment with Tempus abstraction standards and rules.
  • Act as a conduit between the abstractors and the Studies team, surfacing RWD related issues as they relate to the active cohorts and available information.
  • Liaise with the McCoy Core Clinical team when necessary to keep them abreast of deviations from standard McCoy practices, as well as potential new data points that may be of interest for future McCoy related projects.
  • Stay on top of all due dates, and keep active communication to ensure that projects are kept on time or that timelines are revised to appropriately reflect necessary time to completion.
  • Collaborate with the project-specific study team to review specific data elements post case submission to ensure accuracy and completeness.

Qualifications/Skills:

  • CTR, LPN, BSN or MSN or deep clinical data experience (data managers, clinical monitors, CRAs) preferred
  • 2+ years project management experience
  • 4+ years experience in a clinical or research setting with a preferred focus on oncology and/or hematology
  • Data Quality Assurance (QA) / auditing experience is a plus
  • Experience in data entry and/or study builds in Medrio or other EDC systems is necessary.
  • High comfort level working across multiple therapeutic areas and/or cancer subtypes
  • Knowledge of medical and genomic terminology, medical abbreviations and pharmacy terms and familiarity with medical documentation/EMR document structure
  • Experience in a fast-paced environment 
  • Excellent interpersonal, written and verbal communication skills
  • Proficient in Google Suite (Gmail, Google Docs, Sheets, etc.)

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
