Premier Clinical Research is an independent research company providing pharmaceutical clinical trials in Spokane, WA. We're looking for a Clinical Research Coordinator to join our growing company.

Clinical Research Coordinator is responsible for conducting trials as per the GCP guidelines under the supervision of the Principal Investigator (PI).

Most significantly, CRCs are usually engaged in vital duties that have been usually carried out by the PI, some of them being the informed consent process and making sure that the site staff is in compliance with the protocol. The CRC's main responsibility, as with all clinical research staff, is to ensure the protection and well-being of the patients participating in the study.
