  • Ensure timely EDC data entry and resolution of queries
  • Report and follow up on AEs, SAEs, and protocol deviations
  • Collaborate with investigators, sponsors/CROs, labs, and internal teams
  • Prepare for and participate in monitoring visits, audits, and inspections
  • Maintain regulatory documentation and ensure training compliance for amendments and systems
  • Perform study procedures such as phlebotomy, ECGs, and sample processing (as trained)
  • Attend investigator meetings and provide cross-functional support as needed
  • Maintain working knowledge of protocols, lab manuals, equipment calibration, and inventory

Requirements:

  • At least two years of experience managing multiple phase 2-4 industry-sponsored clinical trial studies as the primary coordinator required
  • High school diploma or GED required
  • Strong understanding of FDA regulations, ICH-GCP, and clinical trial operations
  • Experience with EDC, IVRS, and clinical research platforms
  • Proficiency in medical terminology and clinical documentation
  • Strong organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple studies
  • Clear, professional verbal and written communication skills
  • Comfortable working onsite in a collaborative, clinical environment
Who Thrives in This Role
  • CRCs who want structure, support, and accountability
  • Those interested in taking the next step in managing people
  • Professionals who value teamwork over silos
  • Coordinators who care about data quality, patient experience, and compliance
  • Those ready to grow within a stable, well-established research site
