Medical Assistant

We're looking for a Medical Assistant to join our Miami site and play a hands-on role in the pharmacokinetic sample processing that supports Phase I clinical trials. This is more than sample handling, you'll be trained on specialized lab equipment, own QC processes, and be a key part of a fast-paced clinical lab environment.

What You'll Do

• Collect, process, and manage pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) specimens for Phase I trials
• Operate and maintain specialized laboratory instrumentation (full training provided)
• Own sample QC and processing workflows — not just collection and handoff
• Monitor specimen collections (urine, blood, 24-hour collections) and flag any abnormal results or adverse events to the right team members
• Prepare safety lab requisitions and coordinate sample transport to outside labs
• Label and track PK/PD collection tubes with precision
• Keep collection areas organized, stocked, and audit-ready
• Support participants with care and professionalism throughout their visit

What We're Looking For

• Required: Phlebotomy certification, or 6+ months of phlebotomy experience in a medical setting
• Comfort working in a clinical lab beyond basic sample collection — QC and instrumentation experience is a plus
• Familiarity with GCP/ICH guidelines (or willingness to learn — we'll train you)
• Strong communication skills and attention to detail
• Basic computer proficiency (Word, Excel); experience with clinical research software a bonus

Preferred, not required: Phase I clinical research experience, BLS/ACLS certification
