The Site Engagement Lead is responsible for building and expanding a new clinical site ecosystem for GSK, with a primary focus on Respiratory and secondary focus on Hepatology. This role will identify, engage, and develop relationships with sites that are new to GSK as well as sites that are new to clinical research. 

The role integrates data-driven insights (including payer, prescription, epidemiology, and real-world data) with field-based engagement to identify patient-rich geographies, generate research interest, and establish long-term partnerships. The Site Engagement Lead serves as a key interface between GSK and external sites, enabling a broader, more diverse, and future-ready network to support clinical trial delivery and portfolio execution. 

Responsibilities include: 

 
This role will provide YOU the opportunity to lead key activities to progress YOUR career.  These responsibilities include some of the following: 

• Identify, prioritize, and develop new clinical research sites, including those not currently engaged with GSK and research-naïve sites with high patient potential. 

• Build and expand a fit-for-purpose site ecosystem across Respiratory and Hepatology, including academic institutions, community practices, health systems, and emerging care models. 

• Establish and maintain strong, trusted relationships with investigators, site leadership, and research staff to position GSK as a preferred research partner. 

• Partner with internal stakeholders (e.g., Medical Affairs, Commercial, Data & Analytics, Feasibility) to leverage payer, prescription, epidemiology, and real-world data to identify where patients are located and proactively generate research interest in targeted geographies and sites. 

• Translate data insights into actionable site engagement strategies, identifying “white space” opportunities and underserved regions for site expansion. 

• Develop and execute targeted outreach and onboarding strategies to support new sites entering the GSK research ecosystem. 

• Collaborate cross-functionally to ensure coordinated, “one GSK” engagement with sites and to reduce duplication and improve site experience. 

• Support site segmentation and archetyping efforts to inform strategic investment and resource allocation. 

• Enable site readiness by guiding new-to-research or early-stage sites through clinical trial requirements, processes, and expectations. 

• Provide ongoing insights to leadership regarding site landscape trends, partnership opportunities, and risks to delivery. 

• Contribute to development of scalable engagement models, playbooks, and partnership frameworks to support long-term growth of the site network. 

• Promote adoption of innovative approaches and digital solutions to enhance site experience and operational efficiency.
