We seek excellent students, faculty, and staff to join us in what has become known as the "Western Experience" - an opportunity to contribute to a better world through the development of new knowledge, new abilities, new connections, and new ways to make a difference.

**About Us**:
The Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR) is Canada’s health research investment agency. Its mandate is to excel, according to internationally accepted standards of scientific excellence, in the creation of new knowledge and its translation into improved health for Canadians, more effective health services and products and a strengthened Canadian health care system. The Institute of Aging is one of the thirteen institutes of CIHR. Each Institute is dedicated to a specific area of focus, linking and supporting researchers in pursuing common goals. As one of the 13 Institutes of CIHR, the Institute of Aging shares responsibility for achieving the principal objectives of CIHR. The Institute of Aging’s mandate is the aging person in an aging society, and the effects of different diseases and conditions on aging.
The Institute has a vision to position Canada as a leader in the creation of knowledge through health research that benefits all Canadians and the global community. The Institute of Aging works very closely with all the other 12 CIHR Institutes and is the main co-leader of a number of crucial multi-institute initiatives, including the Canadian Longitudinal Study on Aging, as well as the Dementia Research Strategy and its national (Canadian Consortium on Neurodegeneration in Aging) and international components. The Institute of Aging also contributes intensively to the Canadian presence in a number of international initiatives within its mandate.

**Responsibilities**:
The Scientific Project Manager (SPM) contributes to the success of the CIHR Institute of Aging by providing oversight and being responsible for the activities associated with both the large multi-Institute initiatives and Institute-specific initiatives that they manage. The SPM provides leadership to effectively develop and implement research funding opportunities, including knowledge mobilization plans ensuring that team members are kept informed of progress and that strategic outcomes are achieved within the time and budget assigned. The SPM is the Institute of Aging liaison related to these initiatives, working collaboratively and in partnership with members of other CIHR Institutes across the country and with staff at CIHR (Ottawa) as well as with other external stakeholders, and representing the CIHR Institute of Aging at required meetings and presenting the Institute perspective. The role offers expertise in all aspects of the assigned portfolio and implications for the Institute of Aging and ensures the effective alignment of resources to best support the attainment of the strategic funding objectives. The SPM also manages financial information and develops reports and forecasts in compliance with CIHR guidelines. The role manages relationships and follow-up activities with partners in collaboration with the other members of the IA team, will develop and draft articles and funding opportunities on relevant topics, and will be the scientific resource for the Institute on the projects and initiatives that they lead.

- Education:
- Master’s Degree in a relevant health or health related discipline
- Project Management Professional Certification completed or in progress
- PhD preferred

**Experience**:
- 5 years of project management experience in qualitative and/or quantitative research
- 2 years' experience managing and monitoring research budgets in an academic environment

Knowledge, Skills & Abilities:
- In-depth knowledge of techniques for planning, managing and coordinating projects, with competing priorities that involve a variety of stakeholders
- Project management skills to align projects with strategic goals and operational objectives, ensure team roles are clear, milestones are communicated, and deadlines are met
