Research Coordinator II REACH Nexus (Job ID: 4858)

The Research Coordinator (RC) II is responsible for providing leadership and support for multiple device clinical trials under an Investigational Testing Authorization from Health Canada. The RC II will ensure research projects operate with the highest standards of procedural and ethical excellence. The RC II will report to the Director of Operations and Implementation, and Principal Investigator and will work with internal and external team members to carry out various aspects of medical device trials leading to the national implementation of these HIV and other STBBI research projects.
