Clinical Research Coordinator I (CRC I)

Join Us at Centricity Research!

Centricity Research is one of the largest clinical research networks in North America. We are a fully centralized Integrated Research Organization (IRO) specializing in conducting Phase I-IV clinical trials in over 35 therapeutic areas: inpatient and outpatient; pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and medical device trials.

About the Role

We’re looking for a Clinical Research Coordinator I (CRC I) to play a dual role in supporting the success of our clinical studies. About half of your time will focus on patient recruitment - engaging with potential participants, guiding them through the screening process, and ensuring they have a positive experience from the very beginning. The other half will be spent on clinical responsibilities - performing study-related procedures, maintaining compliance with protocols, and working closely with Investigators to deliver high-quality research.

The CRC I is key to both sides of the research process: connecting people to studies and ensuring every step of the clinical journey is carried out smoothly, accurately, and on time.

This is a fully in-person, on-site role.

What You’ll Do

Study Coordination & Participant Safety

  • Ensure the safety and well-being of all study participants
  • Conduct study visits in line with protocol, GCP, and internal SOPs
  • Collect study-specific assessments (e.g., vitals, ECGs) and maintain documentation accuracy
  • Obtain and maintain proper informed consent

Recruitment, Screening & Enrollment

  • Promote and support recruitment initiatives to identify eligible study participants
  • Screen participants according to protocol inclusion/exclusion criteria
  • Guide participants through the consent process and ensure proper documentation
  • Schedule and coordinate study visits across the full lifecycle of participation

Study Execution & Data Collection

  • Perform clinical tasks such as phlebotomy, sample processing/shipping, point-of-care testing, and participant monitoring
  • Accurately complete source documentation, CRFs, queries, and maintain CTMS records
  • Dispense and track investigational products according to protocol
  • Collect and report adverse events, including timely SAE reporting

Quality, Compliance & Site Support

  • Prepare for monitoring visits, audits, and maintain regulatory files
  • Perform regular quality control checks on source data and documents
  • Support lab supply inventory, equipment maintenance, and administrative needs
  • Assist with community engagement and outreach events as needed

You Might Be a Great Fit If You:

  • Have a bachelor’s degree in a health, science, or research-related field (or equivalent combination of education and experience)
  • Enjoy building relationships and making participants feel comfortable and informed
  • Are confident reaching out to potential participants, explaining studies clearly, and supporting enrollment goals
  • Can balance people-facing recruitment activities with detailed, hands-on clinical responsibilities
  • Have 2–4 years of experience in a healthcare setting and are comfortable with clinical tools like blood pressure monitors, ECG machines, and weight scales (nice to have, but not required)
  • Have phlebotomy experience — or are open to learning it where permitted by law (we’ll provide the training).Understand basic medical terminology, or are eager to learn it quickly
  • Are passionate about contributing to clinical trials that impact global health
  • Are organized, detail-oriented, and skilled at multitasking in a fast-paced environment
  • Are proactive, collaborative, and take ownership of your work
  • Value open communication and thrive in a team-driven environment
