The average clinical trial costs tens of millions of dollars and takes several years to complete. Each trial has the potential to advance modern medicine and reinvent the treatment of a disease. Because of everything that’s at stake, it’s critical to have the right staff in place to execute a trial efficiently, effectively, and with a high level of integrity.
One way to accomplish this is by partnering with a specialized clinical research staffing agency, such as Medix.

The Top 5 Reasons to Outsource Clinical Research Staffing to Medix
While there are times for clinical research organizations to conduct some hiring in-house, particularly for sensitive positions and when trial leadership has close connections to qualified candidates, there are clear, measurable benefits for outsourcing at least a portion of your staffing efforts:
- Gain access to a new pool of specialized talent. Connect with highly-vetted, skilled clinical research candidates, experienced with the complex quality assurance standards and regulations you must meet.
- Work with dedicated life sciences recruiters. Work directly with dedicated clinical research recruiters, familiar with the complexity of the life sciences and clinical sectors, along with the hard and soft skills candidates need.
- Improve fill and retention rates. Rely on our unique process and proprietary technology to gauge performance and long-term fit—from skills to values to vision—of candidates.
- Reduce project staffing costs. Leverage the right temporary or full-time talent, when you need it most, at a reduced cost compared to traditional solutions.
- Become flexible and scalable. With flexible clinical research staffing, you can scale a dedicated team and own the trial and data, all with a more efficient and flexible cost model.
