Project Analyst I (Language Services) - 6 month fixed term contract. Home or office based

ICON is a global healthcare intelligence and clinical research organisation united by a mission to bring new medicines and treatments to patients faster.

As a values-driven organisation, integrity, collaboration, agility, and inclusion are at the heart of how we work and interact with each other, customers, patients and suppliers.

We are currently seeking a Project Analyst I on a temporary basis to join our Language Services team.

This is an internal project support role providing operational assistance to Project Managers and the wider project team. The primary focus of the position will initially be to support the review and clean-up of a backlog within our main data repository, ensuring that project information and records are complete, accurate and appropriately maintained.

In addition to this core activity, the Project Analyst may support other operational project activities depending on team priorities, workload and capacity.

The role does not involve direct contact with external clients. It requires someone who is comfortable working on detailed, process-driven activities and who can adapt to different tasks as team needs evolve.

What You’ll Do:

Your responsibilities may include:

• Review project records within our main data repository and support the clean-up of existing backlog items.

• Ensure that project information, documentation, system records and files are complete, accurate and appropriately maintained.

• Support project setup or project completion activities, including source-file checks, system updates and archiving tasks, when required.

• Perform operational or quality checks in accordance with established processes and requirements.

• Provide additional support to Project Managers and the wider project team according to current priorities, workload and capacity.

Take on other related operational activities as needs evolve during the assignment.

Your Profile

We are looking for someone who is:

• Highly organized and detail-oriented, with a strong focus on accuracy and quality.

• Comfortable learning and working with internal project management and data management systems.

• Able to follow established processes and quality requirements while managing multiple, detailed tasks accurately and adjusting priorities when needed.

• Flexible and adaptable, with a willingness to support different activities according to team needs.

• Able to collaborate effectively with internal team members and work independently once trained.

• Confident using Microsoft Office applications, particularly Word and Excel.

• Previous experience in translation, localization, language services, project coordination, data management or administrative support would be beneficial

What Success Looks Like

Success in this role means helping the team progressively reduce the existing backlog while ensuring the reliability and completeness of project records. It also means being able to learn new activities, complete assigned tasks accurately and on time, and adapt to changing priorities.

While backlog clean-up will be the main initial focus, the scope of the role is intentionally flexible. Tasks may be adjusted or reprioritized according to project requirements, workload and team capacity
