Job Summary
The BC Children's Hospital Research Institute (BCCHR) is located at the BC Children's Hospital (BCCH), the only hospital in BC devoted exclusively to pediatric patients. In the lab, clinic and community, our researchers and clinicians are advancing knowledge of child health and development, improving treatments and finding cures, developing breakthrough technologies, and informing health policy and practice. BCCHR is supported by the BC Children's Hospital Foundation (BCCHF) and works in close partnership with BCCH, the Provincial Health Services Authority (PHSA) and its agencies, and the University of British Columbia (UBC).
BCCHR's wide and varied research portfolio is organized into four Themes. The Healthy Starts Theme brings together researchers with the shared goal of keeping children and families healthy and out of hospital by preventing lifelong health challenges and chronic and infectious diseases that are rooted in early childhood. The Theme is supported by dedicated staff and receives funding for activities and initiatives that progress BCCHR's research ambitions.
The Research Coordinator supports the delivery of Theme activities and initiatives including, but not limited to, recurring research seminars, an annual Research Day, and an annual Catalyst Grant competition. The Research Coordinator undertakes meeting organization, financial administration, and communications efforts for the Theme. They build and maintain relationships with Theme members and BCCHR administrative units, and use knowledge of the research support landscape to triage member questions to the appropriate administrative teams.
Organizational Status
The incumbent reports to the Theme Research Manager, who in turn reports to the Theme Director. The incumbent has working relationships with investigators, staff and trainees in the Healthy Starts Theme. They also have working relationships with counterpart staff in other Themes, and with staff in BCCHR's administrative units.
Work Performed

Assists with research facilitation activities, including grant development and enabling new research collaborations;
Triages questions from Healthy Starts investigators, staff, and trainees to the appropriate administrative units;
Assists in other research-related administration and management, as assigned by the Theme Research Manager
Consequence of Error/Judgement
Failure to plan or follow up on initiatives and poor judgment or errors dealing with such matters would have an adverse effect on the BCCHR's research productivity and operational management of the Healthy Starts Theme. Ability to work collaboratively and exercise sound judgment in dealing with administrative matters where there are no established policies, procedures or guidelines is essential. Failure to act in a professional, tactful manner would have an adverse effect on campus and community relations. Errors in the management of research accounts, as well as errors in reporting procedures, could result in a waste of financial resources, non-renewal of funding, or loss of currently held funding. Inadequate documentation, organization, communication, and planning may adversely affect the image and reputation of Healthy Starts, BCCHR, or its constituent research teams.
