Where Precision Medicine Meets Patient Care

At United Theranostics, we're not just running clinical trials — we're building the future of theranostics from the ground up. We're looking for a seasoned Oncology Research Nurse to join our Princeton, NJ team and take a central role in our growing clinical research program. This is a rare opportunity to do meaningful early-phase work at a mission-driven organization where your expertise will be felt every single day.

The Role

You’ll be a key clinical partner to our physicians, research team, and referring providers — someone who brings both deep oncology knowledge and the interpersonal skill to keep complex, multi-stakeholder research running smoothly. From First-in-Human studies to ongoing safety monitoring, you’ll help set the standard for how great clinical research looks at United Theranostics.

What You’ll Do

• Support and oversee oncology research activities with a focus on early phase and First-in-Human studies
• Coordinate patient visits, assessments, safety monitoring, and research documentation
• Work closely with investigators, clinical staff, and referring providers to ensure clear communication and timely updates
• Reinforce and grow strong relationships with external partners and referring clinics
• Maintain protocol adherence, accurate data collection, and inspection‑ready documentation
• Serve as a clinical resource and role model for the broader research team

What You Bring

• 10+ years of experience as a lead oncology research nurse
• Direct, hands‑on experience with First-in-Human studies
• Strong clinical judgment and deep familiarity with early phase trial requirements
• Excellent communication skills and a reputation for follow‑through
• A genuinely collaborative approach and the ability to work across disciplines

Why This Role

Your work here will have direct, visible impact — on our research program, on our referring provider relationships, and on the patients who trust us with their care. You won’t be a number on a roster. You'll be a cornerstone of what we're building.
