**Target Hiring Range: $88,535 - $99,602**

**Background**:
The Ontario Hospital Association (OHA) is committed to achieving a high-performing health system and focused on supporting our members and partners in many ways, particularly in the areas of quality, integration, and value. The Health Policy Advisor is an energetic professional with outstanding communication skills and extensive experience in providing leadership, policy advice, project and change management support for a broad range of OHA policy initiatives focused on health system policy and governance.

You are a great listener and your communication style, energy and self-confidence make people want to work with you. You enjoy the challenge of gathering and synthesizing a range of perspectives and at times, complex options into a results-oriented plan. You thrive in a fast-paced environment, can effectively handle multiple projects simultaneously and you have a strong sense of accountability for your work and the service that you and your team provide to OHA members, your colleagues, and the organization.

**The Position**:
Reporting to the Director, Strategic Policy & Hospital-Enabled Research, you provide policy advice, research and project management and committee leadership to various OHA initiatives, working with multidisciplinary stakeholder groups related to issues that impact hospitals, health human resources, and the broader health system. You will:

- Conduct effective presentations, prepare briefing notes and jurisdictional scans, and develop tools and resources for colleagues and member hospitals on health system policy and advocacy issues;
- Provide strategic advice and policy development support on issues of emerging interest in the health care sector;
- Oversee and manage the development of projects, tools and resources;
- Represent the OHA as an active participant on relevant external committees and stakeholder working groups;
- Collaborate with members and system partners such as Ontario Health, the Ministry of Health, the Ministry of Long Term Care, and other advocacy organizations on matters affecting hospitals and the broader health system.

You have demonstrated knowledge and experience, preferably in the hospital sector related to health system policy and advocacy.

You have well developed project and process management skills, and effective leadership and stakeholder management skills. In addition, you have excellent communication, presentation, facilitation, and interpersonal skills. You are able to write and present about complex and/or complicated topics in a distilled and succinct manner. You are a strong team player and can work with and coordinate the efforts of diverse groups of professionals from the health care sector. You have the ability to work well under pressure while managing multiple priorities and remaining responsive in a dynamic environment.

You hold a relevant University Degree, combined with demonstrated related work experience. A master’s degree in a related discipline is an asset. Your solid understanding of Ontario’s health care system, including hospital governance, would be an advantage in the position.
