Clinical Research Associate Jobs

Our Clinical Research Associates (CRAs) are at the heart of our success

CRA’s work closely with pharmaceutical companies, clinical contractors and hospitals, ensuring adherence to regulations and principles from phases II-IV of a clinical trial. Our CRAs are at the core of everything we do at ICON. They work closely together with our customers to tackle complex issues that can improve the health of patients and the care they receive. 

CRAs are often referred to as Monitors and this is the key difference between a CRA and a clinical research coordinator (CRC). While CRAs are responsible for overseeing a trial and ensuring compliance, CRCs see to patient consenting, identifying patients and reporting adverse effects in clinical trials.
