We are always looking for individuals in the following categories:

Bilingual English/Spanish a plus.

Clinical Research Coordinators/Assistants: We would prefer individuals with prior clinical research experience, especially in the outpatient setting. Sometimes we have hired some select individuals without research experience. Coordinators are managers in every sense of the word with the only exception that they do not have supervisory responsibility over another employee. Nevertheless, they apply the same managerial skills over the studies that are assigned to them. This position requires a healthcare background, a self-starter who takes ownership over his/her area of responsibility and has the ability to multi-task on a regular basis. The job has about 50% patient care with a heavy emphasis on the recruitment and retention of patients. The other 50% is administrative. The individual must have excellent communication skills since his/her duties involve significant education and answering of questions from potential subjects. The job is ideal for those who enjoy performing in a results-oriented environment. Sitting for the Certified Clinical Research Coordinator (CCRC) exam is expected as soon as possible after individual meets qualifying criteria as set forth by the Association of Clinical Research Professionals (ACRP).

Administrative: Due to our regular growth, we have a need for administrative assistants who are able to perform numerous tasks and are excited about the opportunity to work in a new field. We normally would like for these individuals to have basic computer skills such as a working knowledge of Microsoft Office programs (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, etc.). The ideal candidate to possibly join our team would have the capacity to multi-task and learn new and challenging projects.

We are committed to rewarding, developing, and retaining talent. We'll share the responsibility for your career development with you. There will always be a range of resources available to you to determine and meet your developmental needs.
