About The Position
At K2 Medical Research, we are transforming healthcare by delivering tomorrow’s treatments today. As a rapidly growing clinical research organization across Florida, Tennessee, and Rhode Island, we lead multiphasic trials in therapeutic areas ranging from neurodegenerative to cardiometabolic medicine.

We are seeking mission-driven individuals ready to play a meaningful role in bringing life-changing treatments to the patients who need them most. K2 is actively seeking a Patient Recruitment Specialist to support our clinic in a remote capacity. Patient Recruitment Specialists are responsible for recruiting patients for all studies. Recruiters administer prescreening surveys, i.e., phone screens, to interested patients to identify eligible patients and schedule screening visits for currently enrolling studies and upcoming studies. Patient Recruiters build and develop the site's database by identifying and implementing new methods for patient recruitment, contacting all new potential patients, and maintaining contact with all patients in the database. Note: While this is a remote role, please note that mandatory onsite training will take place at our Maitland, FL clinic.
