Patient Recruitment Specialist
About this role
About the role
Are you the person who turns interest into enrolled, retained participants? We're hiring a Recruitment Specialist to own enrollment for our clinical studies and keep trials on schedule.
What you'll do
- Own enrollment against protocol targets: plan, run, and report on recruitment
- Work curated lists and inbound interest with calls and structured phone pre-screens
- Educate prospective participants on each study's purpose, process, benefits, and risks
- Schedule and confirm screening visits, then follow up to convert and retain participants
- Track recruitment metrics (enrollment, retention, source) and adjust outreach to hit goals
- Partner with the PI and coordinators on eligibility and refresh outreach materials
What you'll bring
- Experience in recruiting, outreach, sales, or marketing (healthcare or research a plus)
- Excellent phone and interpersonal communication; you put people at ease
- Detail-oriented, accurate documentation; comfortable in a CRM or database
- Awareness of GCP / HIPAA and participant privacy; bilingual a plus
Why this role
This is a high-impact seat: when enrollment is the bottleneck, you're the one who clears it. Expect competitive pay, a supportive team, and clear room to grow as you prove you can fill studies, plus the satisfaction of connecting patients to trials that matter.
What you can expect working with Acuity
- A recruiter who has actually worked in research and understands the protocol you would support.
- Honest details up front: the site, schedule, engagement type, and team, before you ever interview.
- Fast, respectful communication. We move quickly and we do not leave you guessing.
- Roles across the DFW metro, from a single opening to a full site build-out, contract and direct hire.
- Your information kept private and never shopped around without your say-so.
