    Legal Director - London, United Kingdom - Pharma Search

    Default job background
    Description
    PRA International is one of the world's leading Global Clinical Research Organisations.

    PRA have managed to continually build and enhance their reputation through delivering a service that is reliable, with a high level of therapeutic expertise and global access to knowledge.

    This is enhanced by having a wealth of CRO, clinical and product development expertise within their senior management, all of whom work closely alongside their customers.

    Established in the late 1970's with name changed to Pharmaceutical Research Associates Inc., in 1981 with focus on data management in Virginia, USA.

    In 1991, PRA expanded its service offering to include clinical trial management and opened their first European location.
    In 1997, PRA acquired International Medical and Technical Consultants (IMTCI), a CRO based in Lenexa, Kansas. This increased PRA International's clinical trials leadership, expertise and experience within the key therapeutic areas of allergy and respiratory. Additionally they gained a Phase I facility.
    This acquisition enhanced their regulatory expertise and expanded PRA's trial management footprint in Europe.

    This further enhanced PRAs capability in Europe, across a number of therapeutic areas within clinical trial management, project management and quality assurance.

    In 2002, PRA acquired Staticon International Espana, an established CRO in Madrid, Spain, further developed their service offering in Europe and in particular bringing enhanced capability in electronic data capture and management.

    In June 2006, PRA acquired Pharma Bio-Research, an early phase clinical development and bioanalytical laboratory company based in The Netherlands, forming the basis for the group within PRA now known as Early Development Services.

    In October 2007, PRA acquired Pharmacon, a clinical research organisation based in Berlin, Germany.

    Specialising in Phase I studies with patients in several Central European countries, this was an important step in PRA's Early Development Services plan to further strengthen its position as an industry leader.
