Alliance / Partnership Management Analyst (Clinical)

Specialist Alliance/Partnership Management

The Pearson Clinical Field Research team is responsible for collecting research data in support of product development for the Pearson Clinical business. Pearson Field Research contracts with Psychologists, Speech-Language Pathologists, and other such professionals to function as examiners who identify potential candidates, administer the assessments, and return the results back to Pearson. For Pearson to be successful, we must continuously maintain a pool of Examiners that have access to the types of candidates needed for upcoming research projects. Maintaining our examiner pool requires developing and fostering ongoing relationships, engaging with them to provide opportunities to maintain their motivation to continue their work with us over the long term. This requires ongoing analysis of our upcoming research needs and then targeted recruiting and onboarding of these professionals, as well as supporting them to continuously recruit and onboard candidates that are needed for our project needs.

The candidate for this position will be responsible for identifying and fostering relationships to support our work needs. This will involve recruiting new individual candidates through marketing, or social media campaigns, attending professional conferences, use of personal or professional networks, and in some cases making cold calls to potential sites or entities. We are eager to develop strong relationships with sites (such as universities, long-term care facilities, day care facilities, etc.) or other such partners to support our data collection efforts. These relationships and interactions with Examiners as well as our internal Pearson Development staff and other internal stakeholders are the key to our success.

This position will be a mix of strategic planning and execution and developing ongoing relationships. The candidate for this position will work closely with the Director and other team members within the Field Research Department looking 12-15 months out to determine upcoming research needs and working to ensure we have the examiners and test candidates we need to execute each project, on-time, and on-budget with high quality.
