Operating with an extensive network that includes hundreds of research locations, mobile clinics, and a team of skilled clinicians, Care Access brings world-class medical research and health services directly to people who often face barriers to receiving quality care. Focused on accessibility and innovation, Care Access facilitates advanced health screenings and clinical research opportunities through initiatives like the Future of Medicine, which aims to improve health outcomes on a global scale, and Difference Makers, a program designed to empower local leaders to enhance health and wellbeing in their communities.

At its core, Care Access prioritizes patient engagement and the democratization of medical breakthroughs, leveraging partnerships, cutting-edge technology, and dedicated perseverance to reimagine the delivery of clinical research and healthcare services. This commitment enables Care Access to create inclusive healthcare environments where everyone can understand their health status and contribute to medical advancements that shape tomorrow’s healthcare landscape.

The Travel Clinical Research Coordinator role at Care Access is instrumental in this mission. This mid-level position focuses on the coordination and management of decentralized clinical trials with a significant emphasis on traveling extensively—up to 75% of the time across the nation. The coordinator is responsible for applying Good Clinical Practices (GCP) during screening, enrollment, and close monitoring of study subjects, ensuring strict adherence to protocols and regulatory standards. The role demands a high degree of independence, complemented by mentorship from experienced clinical operations leaders, such as CRC Leads and Site Managers.

Professionals in this role are proficient in International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) guidelines, Good Documentation Practices (GDP), and ALCOA-C principles. They manage complex clinical trials, coordinate subject recruitment, and maintain regulatory compliance while fostering strong relationships with study participants, sponsors, and clinical research organizations (CROs). The Travel Clinical Research Coordinator also plays a key role in patient coordination, documenting clinical data with accuracy, and managing investigational products, all of which require impeccable organizational and communication skills.

Candidates are expected to be bilingual in English and Spanish, possessing excellent communication capabilities in both languages to effectively serve diverse communities. The position involves extensive interaction with multidisciplinary teams and requires proficiency in industry-specific technologies such as CTMS (Clinical Trial Management Systems) and EDC (Electronic Data Capture) platforms, including Medidata and Oracle. The candidate must demonstrate critical thinking, leadership, and problem-solving skills, maintaining a positive and professional demeanor under pressure.

Educational requirements prefer a Bachelor of Science in Nursing, Pharmacy, or related scientific disciplines, with Registered Nurse (RN) or Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) credentials considered advantageous. Professional certification such as Clinical Research Coordinator Certification (CRCC) or eligibility to take the exam is preferred, alongside a solid background of at least three to four years in clinical research and two years in coordinator roles, preferably with management experience.

This position offers a competitive annual salary range of $70,000 to $100,000 for full-time employees, reinforced by comprehensive benefits including paid time off, medical, dental, and vision insurance fully covered by the employer, health and flexible spending accounts, disability coverage, and a 401(k) retirement plan with company matching.

Care Access prides itself on fostering diversity and inclusion, embracing a workforce that mirrors the broad spectrum of cultures and experiences of the communities it serves. Equal employment opportunity is central to its values, with all qualified applicants receiving consideration without discrimination.
