Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada IWK Health Centre Full time
About IWK Health Centre

IWK Health Centre is a leading academic health sciences centre located in Halifax, Nova Scotia, providing tertiary and primary care for two million children, youth, adults, and families each year across the Atlantic region.

We have a team of approximately 4000 employees, physicians, volunteers, and learners at sites across Nova Scotia. Our focus is on training and mentorship opportunities, recognizing each other's talent, and celebrating our successes.

We collaborate in modern facilities or virtually from home, align our work to our values, and enjoy access to enhanced benefits and wellness programs. We are proud to support our patients, families, and communities and are grateful for the generous donor support we receive.

Our Commitment to Diversity and Inclusion

Promoting an anti-racist environment and calling out discrimination as we work and provide care is important to us. We are located in Mi'kma'ki, the unceded and ancestral territory of the Mi'kmaq people. Working in Mi'kma'ki and providing care to those across Atlantic Canada is a shared privilege with the original inhabitants who have lived here for many thousands of years prior to colonization.

We have the highest percentage of people with disabilities in the country. Nova Scotia has the highest proportions of transgender and non-binary people than any other province or territory in the country. We are active in our work to eliminate discrimination, but have more work to do to build that trust, acknowledge our biases, and reduce the barriers our diverse communities face.

The Opportunity

This position is for a 1.0 FTE Research Manager position within the new Breast Health Research Unit at IWK Health Centre. The successful candidate will work directly with the new Unit's Directors to move the needle on breast health in Nova Scotia.

The Unit will have a provincial mandate to measure and improve access and outcomes to breast health services. With a 5-year term, the Unit will benchmark existing key quality indicators for breast cancer across the province, while simultaneously rolling out a provincial database with patient-reported outcomes measures.

The goal is to swiftly quantify areas within the breast health system that require targeted policy or intervention and measure change prospectively. The Unit will coordinate existing breast health research initiatives within the Breast Health Clinic at IWK Health Centre while expanding data capture and outcome measurement across the province.

Key Responsibilities
  • Execute and coordinate the mission of the Breast Health Research Unit.
  • Play a direct role in executing and coordinating the Unit's mission.
  • Work with the Unit's Directors to move the needle on breast health in Nova Scotia.
  • Benchmark existing key quality indicators for breast cancer across the province.
  • Roll out a provincial database with patient-reported outcomes measures.
  • Coordinate existing breast health research initiatives within the Breast Health Clinic at IWK Health Centre.
  • Expand data capture and outcome measurement across the province.
Requirements
  • Hold a graduate degree in a related field.
  • Familiarity with the health research environment within Nova Scotia Health and IWK Health Centre.
  • Experience working with both organizations is a major asset.
  • Hands-on experience with complex research ethics board applications and project delivery on a provincial scale.
  • Previous experience managing a team of junior staff in the unique environment of health research and innovation.
  • Experience working with research staff and health professionals, including resident doctors, medical students, nursing, and pharmacy.
  • Detailed working knowledge of database software such as REDCap and statistical software packages.
  • Professionalism and flawless communication.
