Clinical Research Coordinator Jobs in Arizona: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a clinical research coordinator in Arizona?
Most clinical research coordinator roles in Arizona require a bachelor's degree in a life science, nursing, or public health field. Arizona does not issue a state-specific license for this role, but employers consistently expect national certification through the Association of Clinical Research Professionals or the Society of Clinical Research Associates. Gaining that credential alongside hands-on experience in a clinical or research setting is the standard path Arizona hiring managers look for.
How much do clinical research coordinators make in Arizona?
Clinical research coordinators in Arizona earn a median of about $124,920 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $65,780 for the lowest 10% to over $209,130 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire clinical research coordinators in Arizona?
Employers hiring clinical research coordinators in Arizona right now include University of Arizona, Banner Health, and Arizona Liver Health, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. Arizona's concentration of large integrated health systems and academic medical centers means openings appear consistently rather than seasonally, with oncology and cardiovascular trial programs generating some of the most frequent postings.
Which Arizona cities have the most clinical research coordinator jobs?
Tucson, Phoenix, and Chandler have the most clinical research coordinator openings in Arizona. Phoenix dominates because of its density of major hospital systems and research institutes, while Tucson's presence is driven largely by the University of Arizona Health Sciences and its affiliated trial sites, and Scottsdale attracts openings through its cluster of specialty clinics and private research organizations.
Are there remote clinical research coordinator jobs in Arizona?
Yes, but they're limited, because most coordinator duties involve direct patient contact, site visits, and on-site data collection. About 25% of clinical research coordinator openings tied to Arizona are remote or hybrid as of August 2026, reflecting how hands-on the role typically is. The tasks most commonly done remotely are regulatory document management, data entry, and sponsor correspondence rather than patient-facing coordination work.
How can I get hired as a clinical research coordinator in Arizona with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry point is applying for a clinical research assistant or study coordinator associate role, which large Arizona systems such as Banner Health and Mayo Clinic post as direct stepping stones into full coordinator positions. A background as a medical assistant, phlebotomist, or clinical data specialist transfers well. Completing a Good Clinical Practice certification before applying gives candidates a concrete credential that signals readiness even without trial experience.
Where can I find and apply to clinical research coordinator jobs in Arizona?
