About The Position

The Associate Clinical Research Coordinator receives direction from a principal investigator, supervisor, or other research staff and works with departments across the institution, investigators, research personnel, participants, other research centers, and sponsoring companies to help resolve problems and complete studies efficiently.

The role coordinates non-therapeutic, minimal-risk clinical research protocols—such as surveys and chart reviews—in accordance with regulatory requirements and institutional guidelines. With direction, the coordinator may assist with complex studies, including interventional, therapeutic, or greater-than-minimal-risk studies, but does not hold overall responsibility for them. Duties include screening, recruiting, and enrolling participants; coordinating schedules and monitoring research activities and participation; recognizing and appropriately reporting adverse events, protocol deviations, and other unanticipated problems; collecting, abstracting, and entering data; and performing assigned administrative and regulatory duties. Some travel may be required.

When applicable, protocol development and maintenance duties may include managing protocol documents and processes through editing, amendments, proofing, and content verification; coordinating study logistics such as data collection booklets and use of the CRU; submitting materials to the Institutional Review Board (IRB); communicating with study sites or federal agencies about study status changes; and completing other protocol-development assignments.
