Join Us at Civia Health 

At Civia Health, Research Assistants play a key role in supporting clinical research operations and ensuring an exceptional experience for trial participants. We’re looking for a reliable, proactive team player who’s eager to grow in the world of clinical trials and contribute to meaningful, life-changing research. 

At Civia Health, you're not just taking a job: You're joining a mission to transform the way clinical research is done. Our purpose is bold: to bring clinical trials front and center in your community, make them accessible to everyday people, and empower underrepresented communities to participate. 

We’re reinventing how clinical studies are run, delivering valid, scalable evidence with a consumer-first mindset. Too often, trials are expensive, fragmented, and overlook the experience of the participant. At Civia, we’re changing that. Our leadership team are experienced industry leading, visionary professionals who know what’s broken — and how to fix it. 

We treat participants like valued partners, not research subjects. That means supporting their agency, putting their needs, comfort, and enjoyment first — and rewarding them generously for their time and effort. 

What It Means to Work at Civia 

Every team member plays a crucial role in reshaping clinical research. You’ll help make studies more human-centered, inclusive, and efficient. We're looking for people who are driven by purpose, inspired by innovation, and ready to roll up their sleeves to do meaningful work.  

At Civia, your contributions aren’t just transactional, they’re transformational

What You’ll Do 

  • Support study coordination by preparing visit materials and assisting with scheduling. 

  • Perform data entry, filing, and documentation of clinical trial activities. 

  • Escort participants, collect vitals, and assist with specimen processing/phlebotomy. 

  • Ensure exam rooms and supplies are prepared for each study visit. 

  • Help maintain regulatory binders and source documents. 

  • Work closely with coordinators, nurses, and investigators to facilitate smooth study execution. 

  • Occasional travel may be required for audits, site visits, or team meetings.  

What You Bring  

  • Bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience in healthcare or research-related field. 

  • Prior experience in a clinical or research setting preferred. 

  • Phlebotomy, blood collection and processing experience required.

  • Strong organizational and multitasking skills. 

  • Excellent attention to detail and communication skills. 

  • Commitment to maintaining confidentiality and ethical standards. 

  • Eagerness to learn and contribute as part of a collaborative team. 

What We Offer 

  • Competitive compensation 

  • Medical, dental, and vision insurance 

  • Generous PTO and paid holidays 

  • Flexible scheduling options 

  • Professional development and continuing education support 

  • A mission-driven team that values respect, inclusion, and innovation 

Ready to Make an Impact?  

  • Mission with Meaning: Be part of a purpose-led team committed to health equity and real-world impact. 

  • Startup Energy, Proven Expertise: Work fast, adapt quickly, and help build something new; guided by seasoned visionary professionals who’ve seen what needs to change. 

  • People First Culture: We care deeply about our patients, participants, and each other. Collaboration, transparency, and bold, straight-talking are core to how we work. 

  • Invested in Your Growth: We don’t just hire for today; we’re building the leaders and changemakers of tomorrow.  

If you’re ready to be part of something meaningful—and work with people who care deeply about doing good work—apply today by submitting your resume and cover letter to the link above.  We’re excited to learn more about you!
