Director of Communications #2019-2528
The Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI)
Director of Communications
Reporting to the Executive Director and leading a team of 17, you will be a key member of the leadership of PCORI’s Engagement, Dissemination and Implementation, and Communications team. In this role, you will provide leadership and oversee strategic planning and deployment of all our communications activities. We will rely on your broad knowledge of organizational and strategic communications, message and campaign development, meeting and event organization and management, scientific communications and publishing, and substantial familiarity with health research.
Patients, their families, and clinicians face a wide range of complex and often confusing choices when it comes to addressing their health and healthcare concerns. They need trustworthy information to decide which option is best for them. The Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI) was established to help address these challenges. Our job is to close the gaps in evidence needed to improve key health outcomes by funding research designed to improve patient care and outcomes through patient-centered comparative clinical effectiveness research (CER). The research we fund is guided by our five National Priorities for Research and Research Agenda. The work under these priorities is managed by our scientific programs, which track and evaluate effectiveness.
Working closely with the Executive Director and Directors of Public Policy and Government Relations, Public and Patient Engagement, Engagement Awards, Dissemination and Implementation, and with the Science department staff including directors and the Chief Science Officer, you will support and complement their work to promote PCORI, its work, and its mission. You will be responsible for supervising four teams led by associate directors or senior managers (Media Relations and Public Outreach, Digital Media, Content Development, and Communications Operations) as they establish and maintain innovative approaches to providing, facilitating, and creating opportunities to enhance the communication of PCORI activities.
