About this role

At Headlands Research, we are dedicated to enhancing clinical trial delivery within our communities. As a leading network of advanced clinical trial sites, we leverage cutting-edge technology and exceptional support services to broaden outreach and participation. Founded in 2018, our rapidly growing company currently operates 20+ sites across the US and Canada, with plans for further expansion. The Budget Analyst role offers an opportunity to take the clinical research knowledge you’ve built at the site level and apply it in a broader, corporate-facing position.

Rather than managing study visits and patient-facing activities, you’ll play an important role in the financial and operational side of clinical trials—helping ensure that study budgets are accurately configured, payment terms are understood, and sites and corporate teams have the information they need to support successful study execution. You’ll work at the intersection of Clinical Operations, Finance, Contracts, Accounts Receivable, and clinical technology , making this an excellent opportunity for someone who enjoys understanding how the different pieces of a clinical trial come together.

In this role, you’ll interpret clinical trial agreement (CTA) and budget terms and accurately translate them into CRIO, Headlands’ clinical trial management system (CTMS). Your work will help enable timely revenue recognition, support sponsor invoicing, and facilitate collection of accounts receivable. You’ll also become a key connection point between our Budget & Contract team, Clinical Applications/CRIO team, and Accounts Receivable team , while developing relationships across Finance and Operations.

Type: Regular Full-time Employee Schedule: Mondays through Fridays, 8:00am - 5:00pm Location: Remote in the United States Reports to: Clinical Applications Manager Benefits: Our benefits package for full-time employees includes health insurance (medical, dental, and vision), Health Savings Accounts (HSA) and Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA), Paid Time Off (PTO), a variety of disability, accident, and life insurance options, as well as many more.

💼 What We Offer Competitive pay + annual performance incentives Medical, dental, and vision insurance 401(k) plan with company match Paid time off (PTO) and company holidays A mission-driven culture focused on advancing medicine and improving patient outcomes 🚀 Why Join Us? If you’ve spent your career in clinical trials at the site level and are looking for an opportunity to broaden your impact, this role offers a different way to apply the experience you’ve already built.
