Clinical Trial & Clinical Development Jobs
Remote Clinical Trial & Clinical Development Jobs (56) →
Clinical development covers the planning, execution, and oversight of clinical trials -- trial design, site and vendor management, data collection, and the regulatory work needed to move a trial from protocol to results. You'll see this function described both ways depending on who's hiring: "clinical development" tends to describe the broader strategic function, while "clinical trial" roles are usually the day-to-day execution jobs -- assistants, associates, and managers running the trial itself. Both are grouped together here.
Common titles include Clinical Trial Assistant, Clinical Research Coordinator, Clinical Trial Associate (CRA), Clinical Trial Manager, Clinical Trial Supply Manager, and, at senior levels, Director of Clinical Development. Hiring spans pharma and biotech sponsors, CROs running trials on a sponsor's behalf, and hospital-based clinical research sites.
Clinical Trial Assistant and Associate roles are a common first job in clinical research and generally require a life-sciences degree rather than prior trial experience. More senior CRA and Clinical Trial Manager roles usually require monitoring or site-management experience and regular travel to trial sites, while trial-supply and data-focused roles are more often remote-capable.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between a clinical trial job and a clinical development job?
Clinical trial roles (assistant, associate, CRA, trial manager) run the day-to-day execution of a specific study. Clinical development is the broader function that also includes trial strategy and program-level oversight -- most clinical trial jobs sit inside a clinical development team.
Can you get a clinical trial job with no experience?
Yes -- Clinical Trial Assistant is a common entry point into clinical research and typically asks for a life-sciences degree rather than prior trial experience.
What does a clinical trial job pay?
It varies by role and seniority -- a Clinical Trial Assistant and a Director of Clinical Development are very different pay bands. Where an employer discloses a range, it's shown directly on the individual job listing.
Are clinical trial jobs remote?
It depends on the role. Site-facing CRA and trial-manager roles usually require regular travel to trial sites, while trial-supply and data-focused clinical development roles are more often remote-capable.
