Description

Executive Director of Cancer Services, Brigham and Women's Hospital

As a not-for-profit academic health system, Mass General Brigham (MGB) is committed to supporting patient care, research, teaching, and service to the community by leading innovation across our system.

Comprising two renowned academic medical centers (Brigham and Women's Hospital (BWH) and Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH)), eight other acute care hospitals, and three world-famous specialty hospitals, MGB provides a complete continuum of care, including a physician network, community health centers, home care and home hospital, and an insurance plan.

Within MGB, the Brigham entities include Brigham and Women's Hospital (BWH), Brigham and Women's Faulkner Hospital (BWFH), Brigham and Women's ambulatory sites, and Brigham and Women's Physicians Organization (BWPO) (collectively the "Brigham Entities").

Brigham is an academic medical center that serves patients from New England, throughout the United States, and from 120 countries around the world, through clinical services at our hospitals and 150 outpatient practices with more than 1,800 physicians and 4,000 nurses.

The Brigham has the second largest hospital-based research program in the world, with an annual research budget of more than $630 million.

As a major Harvard Medical School teaching affiliate, the Brigham is a cherished training ground for physicians, nurses, and allied health professionals, with 1,500 graduate medical education trainees in over 140 of the most sought-after training programs in the world.

The Executive Director of Cancer Services (ED) is accountable for the overall development of Brigham oncology services and serves as a critical leader for the Brigham relationship with Dana-Farber Cancer Institute (DFCI).

Under the leadership of the Senior Vice President for Clinical Services (SVP), the ED is ultimately accountable for the overall administrative leadership, operating results, and cost center financial performance of the applicable areas.

The ED will have accountability for managing the resources of cancer services and meeting Brigham-wide expectations of performance and optimization.

Specific areas of responsibility include:

Brigham Cancer Center (BCC)

The ED serves as the senior executive for the BCC, including:

Overseeing central infrastructure such as the Cancer Registry and Contract Administration.
Working across required constituents to drive forward implementation of BWH's portion of the MGB Cancer strategy.
Serving as the executive sponsor for Brigham cancer network affiliations.
Serving as the cosupervisor (indirect) for the Division Administrator for Medical Oncology, the Division Administrators for cancer surgery services, and Department Administrator for Radiation Oncology.
Dana-Farber Brigham Cancer Center (DFBCC)

The ED serves as the primary hospital executive partner for the joint adult cancer care collaboration with Dana-Farber Cancer Institute.

The ED partners with the academic departments that most closely align with the DFBCC, including the Departments of Medicine, Surgery, and Radiation Oncology, as well as many other academic departments that also provide clinical consultation and service to DFBCC patients.

The ED is responsible for the funding sources and direct management of hospital FTEs who directly support the DFBCC, and serves as the Contract Administrator overseeing and managing the complexities, maintenance, and adherence of the agreement.

This executive will be positioned on the DFBCC Executive Operations Committee, which is the governing body that oversees and facilitates the relationship and joint operations of DFBCC.

In addition, the ED is responsible—directly, or in partnership with senior leader colleagues, the Department Chairs, and/or clinical leaders—for a number of ongoing, broad organizational requirements, including:

Ensuring that competent, efficient, and coordinated patient care is uniformly provided to patients in ambulatory, inpatient and community settings;
Ensuring that all educational programs meet institutional and outside regulatory requirements;
Ensuring that all research initiatives are appropriately supported;
Directing and developing the organization of services and programs within the scope of responsibility of the ED;
Managing all operating and capital budgets for the Brigham within the purview of the ED;
Leading the management team within the ED's enterprises toward attainment of identified short

- and long-term goals and objectives;

Advancing the institution's commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion;
Executing strategies and plans designed to achieve the institution's strategic objectives; and
