Why this is worth applying to

Consider this only if you have strong research communication, writing, and evidence-translation experience plus a genuine interest in global health philanthropy and effective altruism. It is not a general entry-level clinical-to-nonclinical transition role.

Who should apply

Clinicians with public health/global health research, health economics, science writing, grantmaking, policy communication, or health-outcomes research experience; MD/MPH, nurse researchers, pharmacists with writing/evidence-synthesis backgrounds, and clinicians who can show high-rigor donor or public communication work.

CV angle

Frame clinical and public-health experience as evidence appraisal, research synthesis, communicating uncertainty to patients and colleagues, writing guidelines or policy materials, and stakeholder communication. Quantify audiences, publications, and decision impact, and show familiarity with global health, cost-effectiveness, and transparent reasoning.

Skills to highlight

  • Research synthesis
  • Science/research communication
  • Scientific writing and editing
  • Evidence appraisal
  • Communicating uncertainty
  • Donor/stakeholder communication
  • Global health and cost-effectiveness analysis
  • Cross-functional collaboration

Role summary

Senior research-communications role at GiveWell translating global-health grantmaking research, cost-effectiveness reasoning, and uncertainty into accurate, transparent donor-facing and public communications while helping build a new function.
