Clinical Research Coordinator, Remote (Entry Level)
This is a full-time remote role open to applicants anywhere, with a salary up to $46,500 per year. It's labeled entry-level, though eight months of relevant clinical trial coordination experience is still expected, so it suits someone early in the field rather than someone brand new to it.
What the job covers
- Manage the day-to-day operations of one or more clinical trials
- Recruit and monitor study participants throughout the trial
- Keep data collection and reporting aligned with regulatory standards
A trial testing a new medication might have twenty enrolled participants at different points in the protocol, some due for a follow-up assessment this week, one who needs a reminder about an upcoming dosing visit, and paperwork on an adverse event report that has to go out within a set number of days. Coordinating all of that, without letting a deadline slip past regulatory limits, is what fills most of the week here.
Background needed
A bachelor's degree is the education requirement, usually in a life science, nursing, or related health field. Familiarity with Good Clinical Practice regulations matters, and eight months of experience coordinating clinical trials is the baseline the hiring team wants to see.
- Working knowledge of clinical trial protocols
- Familiarity with GCP regulatory compliance
- Comfort with data management systems used in trial tracking
- Clear, patient-facing communication skills
- Attention to detail on paperwork with real regulatory consequences
GCP familiarity tends to matter more than any single software tool, since regulations shape how documentation is handled throughout the trial, not just in one part.
Pay and benefits
Pay for this role runs up to $46,500 a year, reasonable for clinical research coordinator remote salary expectations at the entry-level, sub-one-year experience mark. The package here covers medical coverage, time off, and a company match toward retirement savings, with paid holidays and the occasional team event thrown in by some employers.
How the role fits into the team
Naukri Mitra listed this opening, though you'd report directly to a principal investigator or a study manager overseeing the trial rather than a general HR contact. New coordinators typically shadow an established trial for a few weeks before taking on participant coordination independently. Deadlines around adverse event reporting and data submission are fixed by regulation, not by internal preference, so this isn't a role where a missed date can simply be pushed to next week.
Applying
Submit your application through the listing where you found this description, including any clinical trials you've supported and what your specific role in them was, whether that meant participant recruitment, data entry, or regulatory documentation. If you're new to the field and have limited experience listed, highlight coursework or internships that specifically involve GCP or trial protocols, since that background can offset a shorter resume.
This posting is open to applicants anywhere, making it one of the clinical research coordinator jobs worldwide that doesn't require relocating near a specific research site. Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis with no fixed closing date.
