Job Description

Clinical Research Coordinator (CRC)

Key responsibilities typically include:

• Screening and recruiting study participants, verifying eligibility per protocol.
• Conducting informed consent discussions and ensuring ethical treatment of participants.
• Coordinating study visits, executing protocol-specified procedures (labs, vitals, diaries, adverse event monitoring, etc.).
• Monitoring adverse events (AEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs), ensuring timely reporting to sponsors/IRBs.
• Entering data into electronic systems (EDC/CTMS), maintaining source documentation, case report forms (CRFs) and regulatory files.
• Interacting with sponsors/CROs, coordinating with study monitors, handling queries and managing trial logistics.
• Ensuring compliance with Good Clinical Practice (GCP), institutional policies and regulatory requirements.
• Often serving as the participant-facing point of contact and maintaining excellent communication and engagement with subjects and site staff.

Why the role matters:

• The CRC ensures that the research is conducted ethically, safely, according to protocol, and produces high-quality data.
• They maintain the interface between participants, clinical staff, sponsors/CROs and regulatory oversight — which is critical for successful trial execution.
• Because they manage many moving parts (visits, documentation, labs, data, adverse events), strong organisational, communication and multitasking skills are essential.
