Who's Hiring
What Utah Employers Look For
The qualifications that appear most often in clinical research coordinator jobs across Utah.
- Bachelor's degree in life sciences, nursing, or a related health field required
- ACRP or SOCRA certification (CCRC or CCRP) preferred or required for senior roles
- Prior clinical trial coordination experience under ICH-GCP guidelines strongly preferred
- Proficiency with electronic data capture systems such as Medidata Rave or REDCap
- Ability to obtain and maintain IRB training and site-specific research certifications
- Strong written communication skills for regulatory document preparation and sponsor correspondence
Clinical Research Coordinator Jobs in Utah: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a clinical research coordinator in Utah?
Most employers in Utah require a bachelor's degree in a life science, nursing, or public health field as the foundation. Utah does not issue a state-specific license for clinical research coordinators, so credentialing through national bodies matters most: the Association of Clinical Research Professionals offers the CCRC exam, and the Society of Clinical Research Associates offers the CCRP. Completing GCP training and gaining hands-on exposure through University of Utah Health or Intermountain Health research programs strengthens any application significantly.
How much do clinical research coordinators make in Utah?
Clinical research coordinators in Utah earn a median of about $119,430 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $63,500 for the lowest 10% to over $218,340 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire clinical research coordinators in Utah?
Employers hiring clinical research coordinators in Utah right now include Care Access, Advanced Research Institute, and Numinus, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Utah's concentration of academic medical systems and contract research organizations along the Wasatch Front means openings appear consistently across both hospital-based research departments and industry sponsors.
Which Utah cities have the most clinical research coordinator jobs?
Ogden, Salt Lake City, and Draper account for the most clinical research coordinator openings in Utah. Salt Lake City leads because it is home to University of Utah Health and Intermountain Health's flagship facilities, while Provo benefits from a cluster of pharmaceutical and biotech employers drawn to the Utah County research corridor, and Ogden's activity reflects the expansion of clinical research at McKay-Dee Hospital and nearby contract research sites.
Are there remote clinical research coordinator jobs in Utah?
Yes, but they're rare. Most clinical research coordinator work requires on-site patient contact, regulatory file management, and direct interaction with investigational staff, which limits full-time remote arrangements. About 20% of clinical research coordinator openings tied to Utah are remote or hybrid as of November 2026, and those positions tend to involve data management, sponsor monitoring support, or regulatory affairs tasks rather than active trial coordination duties.
How can I get hired as a clinical research coordinator in Utah with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is applying for a clinical research associate or research assistant role within a hospital research department, then transitioning once you have trial exposure. University of Utah Health and Intermountain Health both run structured research training programs and regularly post junior coordinator and clinical trials assistant positions that do not require prior CRC experience. Completing a GCP certification course and volunteering with IRB-approved studies at Utah Valley University or Weber State can also strengthen an application before the first paid role.
Where can I find and apply to clinical research coordinator jobs in Utah?
You can find and apply to clinical research coordinator jobs in Utah on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings across the state. Search the listings, identify the roles that fit your background and target specialty, and apply directly to the ones that match your experience and location preferences.
