    Description
    High Value Healthcare Advocate
    Department: Program
    Employment Type: Full Time
    Location: Washington, DC
    Reporting To: Patricia Kelmar
    Compensation: $39,750 - $55,000 / year
    Description
    PIRG seeks an Advocate to lead our effort to lower health care prices and improve the quality of patient care across the United States. Our complex health care system is riddled with perverse incentives that jack up prices of healthcare with little to show for improvement in the quality of care we receive.
    Key Responsibilities
    Our High Value Healthcare Advocate will be responsible for campaigns to lower prescription drugs costs, address runaway prices in hospitals and fight for stronger patient protections from unfair medical bills. PIRG's advocates evaluate policy reform, gain media coverage and organize coalition partners to build strong grassroots campaigns to push for high value health care solutions. This position requires exercising discretion, independent judgment and ability to oversee fast-moving projects. Responsibilities include but are not limited to:
    • Program Development: Help develop programs and campaigns, including researching the issue, identifying viable policy solutions, and proposing smart political strategy and messaging.
    • Advocacy: Make the best case for our policies directly to decision-makers. Build relationships with players in regulatory agencies, state houses across the country, or in Congress.
    • Campaign Strategy: Work with the Campaign's Senior Director to develop plans to win on our campaigns; assess opportunities for building political support through grassroots organizing, media coverage, endorsements and message development.
    • Coalition Building: Meet with other groups who are concerned about this issue. Work together in order to maximize our influence.
    • Fundraising: Write grant proposals, build relationships with foundation staff, and meet with major donors.
    • Media Outreach: Serve as the spokesperson for our campaigns through media events, press releases and opinion writing. Keep abreast of important health care issues and raise the profile of high value health care issues in the media.
    • Staff Recruitment and Development: Recruit new staff, interns and volunteers and provide training and leadership development opportunities. Potential to oversee campaign associates.
    Qualifications
    Candidates must have at least 3-8 years of relevant professional experience. Qualified candidates will have a demonstrated commitment to public interest or consumer issues and to citizen-based social change. We're looking for people who are goal-driven and results-oriented, who have excellent verbal, written and analytical skills, the ability to speak persuasively in a charged atmosphere, and want to make positive policy change. Experience with health policy is a must.
    Benefits
    Compensation and Benefits
    The starting annual compensation range for this position for someone with 3-8 years of experience is $39,750-$55,000. Candidates on the lower end of directly relevant experience should expect to be on the lower end of this range. PIRG offers an excellent benefits package. Our benefits package includes medical, dental, and vision insurance for employees and dependents, time off, a commuter benefit program, a 401(k) plan with employer match, parental leave, long term disability insurance, and may include needs-based student loan assistance. We also offer an excellent training program and opportunities for advancement.
