Clinical Operations Roles We Recruit For

Clinical Operations Leadership

Heads of clinical operations and senior leaders who build and run the function.

Study and Program Management

Study managers and program leads who keep trials organized and on track.

Clinical Trial Managers

Managers who run day-to-day trial work with sites.

Clinical Research Associates (CRAs)

Monitors who work with sites to support study conduct and data quality.

Clinical Trial Operations Support

Clinical trial associates and operations specialists who keep study documents and systems in order.

We also provide CRO and vendor management support as a service to clients during the talent acquisition process.

Clinical Development and Clinical Research Recruiting

Clinical development teams design the studies that operations teams run. We also recruit for that side of the work, including clinical scientists, clinical research professionals and medical directors for clinical development.

In this context, clinical research recruiting means hiring the people who do the research. If you are looking for help enrolling patients in a trial, that is a different service, and we are not the right partner for it.

What Clinical Operations Recruiters Look For

  • Experience in similar phases and study designs
  • Experience with your therapeutic area and modality, where it matters
  • Work with sponsors, CROs or both, depending on your model
  • Organization and communication skills
  • For leaders, experience building teams and processes

Cell therapy and rare disease studies, for example, can bring specific operational demands, so relevant experience can help a new hire contribute sooner.
