Job Description

Milestone One is a Site Enabling Organization with global headquarters in Zug, Switzerland. We understand what clinical study sites need, and our mission is to strengthen study delivery by connecting sponsors, CROs, and medical institutions through strategic partnerships that accelerate clinical research.

Please submit CV in English.

The Milestone One Senior Clinical Site Coordinator is a key member of the Operations team, taking hands-on responsibility for the preparation, activation, and day-to-day coordination of clinical trial activities at Milestone One-supported investigator sites in Argentina, initially focusing on strategically important sites.

We are looking for an experienced and autonomous Senior Clinical Site Coordinator who can work directly with investigators, hospital departments, CRAs, CTMs, and study vendors without close day-to-day supervision. This role requires the ability to establish operational processes in sites where the clinical research structure may still be developing, while operating strictly within formally delegated and authorized activities.

In this role you will:

• Conduct protocol-specific site readiness and gap assessments to support successful study initiation.
• Support preparation for Site Initiation Visits (SIV), site activation, and first-patient readiness.
• Map and coordinate protocol-specific workflows involving investigators, laboratory, pharmacy, imaging, pathology, sample logistics, study vendors, and other institutional departments.
• Coordinate recruitment activities, referral pathways, pre-screening documentation, and candidate follow-up.
• Prepare participant-specific visit plans and track protocol windows, procedures, samples, results, and follow-up actions.
• Coordinate complex and protocol-critical workflows, which may include prolonged screening periods, extensive eligibility documentation, participant diaries, time-sensitive sample collection, home-based procedures, investigational product logistics, and safety follow-up.
• Maintain essential documents, training records, action logs, and study trackers.
• Support source documentation, EDC entry, query resolution, and eCOA/e-diary follow-up when formally delegated, trained, and authorized.
• Prepare sites for monitoring visits and ensure timely closure of follow-up items.
• Identify and escalate operational, quality, recruitment, safety-routing, or resource risks early.
• Help establish reliable and scalable clinical research processes across supported institutions.

• Complex protocols involving central laboratories, e-diaries, investigational product, PK sampling, external vendors, or home-based activities (preferred)
• Public hospitals or institutions where clinical research processes are still being developed (preferred)
• Recruitment strategies and referral-network coordination (preferred)
• Mentoring junior coordinators or institutional staff (preferred)

Knowledge & Skills

• Strong knowledge of ICH-GCP and investigator-site responsibilities.
• Experience with EDC and other clinical trial systems.
• Strong organizational, documentation, and stakeholder-management skills.
• Ability to coordinate complex protocols and work with urgency without compromising accuracy.
