Physician Assistant – Clinical Research (Sub-Investigator)

Location: Brooklyn, NY

About Brooklyn Clinical Research:

Brooklyn Clinical Research was founded to increase access to clinical trials for underrepresented populations. Clinical-trial enrollment should accurately represent the broader population. In meeting this objective, we help improve therapeutic efficacy and safety for all individuals.

Position Overview:

We are seeking a clinically adept, highly motivated Physician Assistant to join our growing research team as a Sub-Investigator. This is a hands-on clinical research role, working alongside our full-time Principal Investigator (MD) to conduct industry-sponsored clinical trials.

The ideal candidate will thrive in a fast-paced, dynamic environment where flexibility, strong clinical decision-making, and attention to detail are essential. You will receive full training in clinical research and GCP, and you will play a key role in the daily conduct of clinical trials — performing protocol-specific assessments, managing study visits, and ensuring participant safety and regulatory compliance.

Key Responsibilities:

• Serve as a Sub-Investigator on assigned clinical trials under supervision of the Principal Investigator.
• Perform protocol-required medical evaluations, including detailed histories, physical exams, safety assessments, and medical oversight of study participants.
• Administer investigational products (e.g., vaccines, injectables) according to protocol.
• Perform and oversee clinical procedures including phlebotomy, vital signs, ECGs, and other protocol-specified tests.
• Assess and document adverse events and serious adverse events according to FDA and Sponsor guidelines.
• Maintain thorough, timely, and accurate source documentation and electronic data entry (EDC, eSource, CTMS).
• Collaborate closely with clinical coordinators, regulatory staff, sponsors, and CROs.
• Participate in monitoring visits, audits, and inspections.
• Maintain comprehensive knowledge of study protocols, informed consent documents, and regulatory requirements.
• Participate actively in team meetings, contributing to ongoing process improvement as our site grows.
• Act as a supplementary Clinical Research Coordinator on an as-needed basis.

Qualifications:

• Graduate of an accredited Physician Assistant program (required).
• Active Physician Assistant license in New York State (required).
• Prior clinical research experience is a strong plus but not required.
• Extensive background in direct patient care.
• Current BLS/CPR certification.

Key Attributes for Success:

• Excited to work in a fast-paced clinical environment where protocols and patient needs can vary daily.
• Strong clinical acumen and independent judgment.
• Detail-oriented with excellent documentation skills.
• Highly organized with the ability to manage multiple protocols simultaneously.
• Excellent communication and teamwork skills.
• Commitment to patient safety, protocol adherence, and research integrity.
• Spanish fluency or medical Spanish is a plus but not required.

Position Details:

• Full-time, salaried position, Monday–Friday. Occasional weekend work may be required during high-volume vaccine periods.
• Anticipated Start Date: ASAP
• Salary Range: $140,000 to $170,000 depending on experience.

Why Join Us:

This is an excellent opportunity for a PA who is interested in advancing their career into clinical research while maintaining direct patient interaction. You will be a key member of a high-performing, mission-driven team with meaningful opportunities for professional growth as our research site expands.
