About Blackbird: Blackbird is an integrated development team comprised of Clinical Development, Operations, Regulatory and Patient Engagement within Raven. Blackbird's mission is to transform clinical trial planning and execution, resulting in lower costs and expedited timelines across RA Capital's portfolio. Blackbird provides companies with strategic, data-driven clinical study design assessments, operational optimizations, and innovative best practices to minimize inefficiencies and prevent the need to “reinvent the wheel” at each portfolio company.   The Role: This is a hands-on, execution-focused role at the center of Blackbird's Patient-Centered Innovation team.

Where the senior members of the team architect strategies for portfolio companies, you will make those strategies real: developing the materials, managing the timelines, coordinating the vendors, engaging with patients and advocates, synthesizing the data, and keeping a large portfolio of concurrent workstreams on track. This is an ideal role for a rising professional who has mastered the fundamentals of clinical trial recruitment or patient engagement and wants broad, cross-functional exposure inside a venture-backed biotech ecosystem — with a clear runway to grow into strategic ownership over time. Key Responsibilities 1. Recruitment & Enrollment Execution Campaign Support: Support the build-out and day-to-day management of central recruitment campaigns for portfolio company trials, including tracking referral quality, monitoring campaign performance, and flagging enrollment risks to senior team members. Vendor Coordination: Serve as the operational point of contact for recruitment vendors and digital marketing partners — managing timelines, deliverables, and reporting cadences under the direction of the Associate Director. Material Development: Draft and produce recruitment materials, advertisements, and educational resources, translating highly technical clinical trial content into clear, accessible language for patients and caregivers. Enrollment Tracking: Maintain dashboards and trackers that monitor enrollment veloci
