Overview

We are representing an exceptional research-focused oncology organization seeking a Principal Investigator (PI) to oversee a highly experienced clinical team and drive breakthrough studies with biotech sponsors.

This is a full-time, research-only role , offering the opportunity to guide cutting-edge oncology trials in a fast-growing, data-driven clinical environment.

The position is ideal for an oncologist who wants to transition from purely clinical practice into a leadership role at the intersection of science, medicine, and industry , helping advance next-generation cancer therapies.

Key Responsibilities

  • Support scientific and operational strategy, SOP refinement, and future site development.
  • Participate in investigator meetings, safety reviews, and regulatory inspections.

Ideal Candidate

  • MD or DO with board certification or eligibility in Hematology / Oncology (or related discipline).
  • Licensed or license-eligible to practice medicine in California.
  • 1–5+ years post-fellowship experience (early-career attendings encouraged to apply).
  • Demonstrated clinical excellence and the ability to manage oncology patients in a research setting.
  • Prior Sub-I or PI experience preferred but not required — full GCP training and mentorship provided.
  • Strong communication skills, collaborative mindset, and enthusiasm for research and innovation.
  • Must be committed to a full-time, on-site position.
  • Why This Opportunity

  • Exceptional Organization — culture of scientific rigor, integrity, and collaboration.
  • Exposure to Cutting-Edge Oncology Programs — work on next-generation therapeutic approaches.
