Experienced Clinical Research Associate, Sponsor-dedicated

IQVIA Clinical Functional Services Partnerships (FSP) business is unique. Our teams are dedicated to a single sponsor partner, where the common goal is quality delivery for our customers.  We set ourselves apart with collaboration and face to face contact both at start up and during the clinical study.

Leadership recognizes the skills, talent and experience of our clinical teams and strives to build upon this as the function evolves and grows.   Our managers understand the sponsors priorities and the individual aspects of each model.  Focus is given to career development from day one, including new hire orientation and onboarding, day to day problem solving and training and development.

Unique to the FSP model, our team contributes to the pipelines of the specific sponsor and therefore our CRAs are ‘indication and molecule experts’.  Additionally, IQVIA’s FSP business works with the Sponsors SOP’s, creating more continuity for both parties.

Our models offer excellent opportunities for experienced CRA’s to expand their knowledge and skills.
