• Individual Contributor

We are representing a growing organization that operates at the intersection of clinical research services (CRO) and clinical trial technology
. The company builds and supports a modern software platform used in clinical studies and also provides CRO services to pharmaceutical, biotech, medical device, and research partners.

Because they work in a highly regulated, audit-heavy environment
, their Quality Management System (QMS) is a core part of the business. They are seeking a QA Coordinator to centralize and strengthen quality operations across the company.

The team is small, collaborative, detail-oriented
, and values people who are proactive, organized, and not afraid to speak up or remind others of deadlines.

This is a newly created role designed to support the QA Director by owning day-to-day quality system activities. The QA Coordinator will manage recurring QMS processes, maintain documentation and records, support audits, and ensure the organization is consistently meeting regulatory expectations.

Although the role has no direct reports
, it requires someone who can coordinate across teams, follow up consistently, and mobilize people to complete required tasks (training, documentation, etc.).

This position will be supported through an onboarding process and will work closely with the QA Director, Operations, and other cross-functional teams.
