About The Position

Start Your Career in Clinical Research
If you’re curious about how new treatments reach patients, detail-oriented by nature, and energized by work that genuinely matters – this is where that career begins.
As an Assistant Clinical Research Coordinator at Profound Research, you’ll work alongside experienced clinical research staff at one of our sites, supporting the day-to-day execution of clinical trials that give patients access to therapies they couldn’t otherwise reach. You’ll learn by doing – gaining hands-on experience in study coordination, patient interaction, data collection, and clinical procedures – with a clear path to grow into greater ownership and responsibility over time.
This isn’t a behind-the-desk role. You’ll be present with patients, part of a team, and contributing to research that has real-world impact from day one.

• Comfortable working in a fast-paced, team-based environment

• Support the coordination of active clinical trials, including patient visits, scheduling, and study-related procedures
• Assist with data collection and documentation, learning to apply the rigorous standards that clinical research demands
• Perform and develop competency in clinical procedures including vital signs, EKGs, phlebotomy, and specimen processing
• Interact directly with study participants – greeting them, explaining visit steps, and ensuring they feel supported throughout the process
• Work closely with Clinical Research Coordinators and site leadership, asking questions, seeking feedback, and building your clinical knowledge base
