About this opportunity
Trial Horizon lists this Business Development Associate — Clinical Research (Entry Level) (Somerset) opportunity in somerset, New Jersey. Review the employer’s description below for duties, qualifications and application requirements.
Job description
Stryde Research runs clinical trials inside 20+ physician practices across Texas and is now expanding on the East Coast with our partner company Trial Horizon. We’re hiring someone early in their career to learn physician business development from the ground up—trained directly by our team.
What you’ll actually do: visit specialty medical practices and build real relationships with front desk staff and practice managers, schedule meetings between our leadership and physicians interested in research, keep our CRM updated and follow up on time, and support outreach campaigns and community events. Within a year, you’ll know how to take a doctor from “never heard of you” to signed research partner — a skill that pays well for the rest of your career.
You don’t need clinical research experience. You need to be comfortable walking into an office where nobody knows you, organized enough that nothing falls through the cracks, and coachable. Medical assistants, front-desk veterans, retail or B2B salespeople, and recent grads who’d rather learn by doing all fit.
