✓ Strong written and verbal communication skills

✓ Willingness to participate in medical administration

➞ Previous clinical trial employment is not essential, but a strong interest in clinical research and demonstratable research experience (including publications) is desirable.

Why Join This Healthcare Organisation

This Northern Beaches clinical research centre researches the newest medical treatments and medical devices. Their focus is on collecting unbiased data from voluntary research participants to help develop the latest treatments.

➞ This is a growing clinical trial provider with great career opportunities
