Eligibility, licensing, and location restrictions can change. Always confirm details on the source posting before applying.

Why this is worth applying to

Worth considering only if you already have clinical data, registry, informatics, or research-data leadership experience at scale; the director title and empty posting suggest a high bar. Clinicians without data-ownership track records are unlikely to clear screening.

Who should apply

Physician-informaticists, clinical data or RWD leaders, pharmacists and nurses with clinical data governance or registry experience, and clinical research professionals who have owned oncology/genomics data programs and led cross-functional teams.

CV angle

Reframe real clinical work as data leadership: quantify ownership of registries, quality/metrics datasets, EHR optimization, or trial data; highlight governance, data quality, and cross-functional delivery. Emphasize oncology/genomics or real-world data exposure and any vendor or health-tech collaboration — do not claim data leadership scope you have not held.

Skills to highlight

  • Clinical data governance and data quality
  • Real-world data / registry and outcomes datasets
  • Oncology or genomics data familiarity
  • EHR/EMR and clinical informatics workflows
  • Data strategy and roadmap ownership
  • Cross-functional stakeholder leadership
  • HIPAA / regulatory and privacy compliance
  • Vendor and external data partner management
