Mission
Are you interested in working in a Decentralized Clinical Trial (DCT) Team, where you will be involved with the operational team, Project Managers, Homecare Trial Coordinators, and other Stakeholders within and out of FutureMeds? Are you eager to work in a dynamic and international team with flexible working hours? Come and be part of us.

What you will be a part of:
emovis is since 2001 a dedicated study site right in the center of Berlin, conducting out-patient clinical studies to assess the efficacy and side effects of new medications. Participation in a clinical trial can mean quite a burden for some patients (long travel time, exhausting and frequent examinations) and even not being possible for other (severely diseased patients, kids that need to go to school…). If the patient cannot go to the study site, we bring the study site to the patient with our Homecare visit department. From our office in Berlin, we organize and coordinate homecare visits for patients in 16 European countries.
Since August 2023, emovis GmbH is now part of the FutureMeds network and this role will not only revolve around emovis in Berlin, but around the different FutureMeds DCT networks in the world.
