If you’re ready to bring your clinical research experience into a fast‑paced, high‑volume environment, this role offers an opportunity to make an immediate impact.

As a Clinical Research Coordinator I at Profound Research, you’ll support the execution of high‑volume vaccine clinical trials at one of our sites. You’ll help manage study activities, lead participant visits, complete protocol‑required procedures and documentation, and work closely with investigators, sponsors, CROs, and internal teams. This is not an entry‑level support role – you’ll be expected to operate with ownership, sound judgment, and a strong understanding of clinical research standards.

This is a 1099 contract opportunity designed to support near‑term vaccine study needs, with the potential to convert to a full‑time position based on business needs, performance, and role availability. If you’re looking to build on your clinical research experience with a growing organization that values accountability, quality, and patient‑centered execution, we’d like to hear from you.
