We are actively hiring a Clinical Research Coordinator - Oncology, to support our Valkyrie Clinical Trials Walnut Creek, CA site.
LOCATION : Onsite, Walnut Creek, CA

HOURS : Monday to Friday, Day Shift, 40 hours per week
COMPENSATION : $37-48 per hour (depending on experience)
The Clinical Research Coordinator (CRC) coordinates the activities, duties, and procedures required for the start-up, conduct, and close-out of oncology clinical trial protocols at Valkyrie Clinical Trials. The role is responsible for obtaining clean, objective, and accurate data within sponsor timelines while protecting participant safety and maintaining inspection-ready documentation.
Two things distinguish this role beyond standard clinical coordination. Oncology protocols are clinically dense, so full command of the state of the disease, treatment history, and clinical rationale behind each assigned protocol, not only its procedural checklist, is core to this role: a missed detail in this patient population is a safety issue, not just a data issue. Valkyrie's care model is also white glove. Participants and their families are never routed around or told no when they hit a logistical obstacle, and the CRC is expected to proactively remove barriers to keep them in care.
This is the individual contributor level of the Clinical Research Coordinator job family. The band spans coordinators who are new to the role and working toward independent practice through experienced coordinators managing complex oncology protocols independently. Placement and progression within the band are determined by the Flourish Research Oncology CRC Competency Assessment.
All work is performed in accordance with Flourish Research SOPs, policies and procedures, federal regulations, medical ethics, Good Clinical Practice, ICH guidelines, IRB requirements, sponsor protocol requirements, and the Flourish Research Core Values, Mission Statement, and Employee Manual.
