POSITION: Associate Director, Research Partnerships

ORGANIZATION: The Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson’s Research

About Us:

The Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson’s Research (MJFF) was founded in 2000 with one clear objective: finding a cure for Parkinson’s disease in our lifetime. The Foundation applies extraordinary scientific, business and media assets to this singular focus—thus creating a unique and dynamic organization. Since inception, MJFF has quickly grown into the largest nonprofit funder of Parkinson’s disease research worldwide, having funded more than $1 billion in research projects in academic and industry labs worldwide. We exist to put ourselves out of business, so we deliberately hold no endowment but instead spend what we raise quickly and efficiently; 88 cents of every dollar spent goes directly to research programs. Core to our philosophy is how we think of our capital and its risk profile relative to other stakeholders in the drug development pipeline. We work aggressively to de-risk various treatment ideas and tools in the hopes of building a robust pipeline of new treatments for patients. Today, the Foundation has about 155 full-time employees.

Within MJFF, Research Partnerships helps get to better Parkinson’s treatments faster by driving two key activities:

increasing engagement and developing partnerships with various stakeholders, including biopharma, government, nonprofits and patients
integrating the patient experience and viewpoint across the research spectrum. This position supports our efforts to engage volunteers in clinical research.

Position Description: 

Clinical trials are the final hurdle in getting to new FDA-approved treatments. It requires patient-focused experts, leading clinical research teams, and drug developers working in concert to mobilize the community of volunteers needed to participate in research.

As an Associate Director, Research Partnerships, you will be the touchpoint for a cross-departmental internal team, working with Parkinson’s researchers, CROs, and patient advisors who collaborate to make trial recruitment more accessible, faster, less costly, and more efficient.

Provide strategic insight, solicit buy-in for strategic plans, and execute approaches to engage Parkinson’s patients, care partners, and individuals at risk for Parkinson’s in PPMI, including development and oversight of participant communications, retention incentive programs, and collaborations with referring partners
Develop and maintain dynamic data analytics and reporting on PPMI participant engagement and performance to inform study and MJFF leadership decisions

Relationship Management:

Develop relationships inside and outside of the Foundation and conduct outreach with the clinical trial and Parkinson’s patient community
Cultivate relationships with clinical trial staff across academic research centers, biopharma and partner organizations
Work with Steering Committee representatives from MJFF-sponsored studies, patient and family Ambassadors, Community Partners and other advisors
