Accounting Manager at 2020 Onsite in Everett, MA

About 20/20 Onsite

20/20 Onsite is a leading provider of mobile and on-site delivery of vision and eye-related testing and assessment services in support of clinical trials. We serve pharmaceutical clients and trial participants nationwide through a unique mobile and on-site service delivery platform reaching participants near where they live or work.

We help sponsors and CROs keep decentralized and hybrid trials on schedule and within protocol — reducing participant dropout, closing enrollment gaps, and improving data quality by removing the time and distance barriers that keep patients from completing visits. That operational reliability, built on deep relationships with pharmaceutical companies, CROs, and trial sites, is what’s driving the shift toward decentralized and hybrid clinical trials.
