The Non-Treatment Research Operations (NTRO) Team in the Cancer Center Office of Clinical Research (OCR) at the University of Virginia is seeking a Clinical Research Coordinator (varying levels) to conduct a variety of clinical trial activities. Duties will include working with research participants, processing laboratory specimens, data entry, record keeping, materials preparation, and reviewing of prospective research participants.

Job Duties include:

- Recruit, screen, and enroll study participants who meet research criteria for multiple clinical trials in the Cancer Center.
- Obtain informed consent from study participants and maintain telephone and in-person contact as needed. Notify Principal Investigator and supervisor of subject status.
