Description

This position typically reports to the principal investigator of a clinical research study. The position may perform evaluation duties in preparation for the project. The position then performs project activities such as overseeing the screening and enrollment of potential clients for a health services protocol, developing materials to communicate the project to potential clients and their families, coordinating site visits and appropriate collection of data, ensuring quality control in the data, and compiling regulatory reports. This position may require specific computer expertise and may require maintaining information on a web site. Work at this level meets the FLSA criteria for a professional exemption since the primary duties are work that requires advanced knowledge which is predominantly intellectual in character and requires the consistent exercise of discretion and judgment. Clinical Research Administrators are not overall project directors. They do not set overall project direction nor do they have responsibility for final interpretation of project results. This position may perform a small amount of general administrative duties such as monitoring budgets, and drafting administrative forms and reports. Work is distinguished from an Administrative and Business Analyst through its primary emphasis on overseeing client recruiting and testing, and analyzing clinical data rather than general administrative work. This position is Grant Funded. This position is eligible for Visa Sponsorship.
