Job Description Summary:** Cover Letter Required **
ABOUT THE NATIONAL ACADEMY OF MEDICINE (NAM) The National Academy of Medicine (NAM), established in 1970 under the name Institute of Medicine (IOM), is an independent organization of eminent professionals from diverse fields including health and medicine; the natural, social, and behavioral sciences; and beyond. With the authority of the 1863 Congressional Charter of the National Academy of Sciences, requested and signed by President Abraham Lincoln, the NAM serves alongside the National Academy of Sciences and the National Academy of Engineering as adviser to the nation and the international community. The NAM's mission is to advance science, inform policy, and catalyze action to achieve human health, equity, and well-being. ABOUT THE PROGRAMS The NAM Grand Challenge on Climate Change, Human Health, and Equity (CGC) is a multi-year strategic initiative to improve and protect human health, well-being, and equity by working to transform systems that both contribute to and are impacted by climate change. The Climate Grand Challenge has five strategic objectives: 1) Catalyze the health sector to reduce its climate footprint and ensure its resilience; 2) Develop a roadmap report for systems transformation; 3) Accelerate research and innovation at the intersection of climate, health and equity; 4) Communicate the climate crisis as a public health and equity crisis, and 5) Reduce climate-related health inequities. Across these objectives, the initiative has multiple programs and projects, some of which are underway, and others are to be launched. The Action Collaborative on Clinician Well-Being (CWB) and Resilience is a network of leaders and representatives of many major health professional organizations and health systems across the United States. Since 2017, the Collaborative has convened, published, and shaped the national conversation to advance three goals:1) Raise the visibility of clinician anxiety, burnout, depression, stress, and suicide, ; 2) Improve baseline understanding of challenges to clinician well-being; 3) Advance evidence-based, multidisciplinary solutions to improve patient care by caring for the caregiver. ABOUT THE POSITION The NAM CGC and CWB teams are looking to bring on an Impact and Engagement Officer (I&EO) to play a pivotal strategic role in the Initiative to Accelerate the National Climate & Health Movement and the Changemaker Campaign for Health Workforce Well-Being ("campaigns"). Working with directors from the CGC, CWB, and Communications teams, the C&EO will be responsible for maximizing the impact of these campaigns through outreach, engagement strategies, and relationship cultivation. The I&EO will be responsible for developing and implementing a recruitment strategy to increase the visibility of the programs among health systems, educational institutions, government organizations, industry, community organizations, funders, and other communities within the health and medicine sphere. In addition, the I&EO is responsible for planning various engagement activities, such as town halls, and developing external communication and messages tailored for current and prospective participants in program activities. In addition, the I&EO will have an important role in working with the CGC team to strategize, develop, and execute a partner engagement plan that will look to strengthen the impact, reach, and longevity of the CGC. This will include working with each of the CGC's workstream directors to develop proactive, ongoing, and effective sponsor stewardship that is consistent across workstreams. The successful candidate will be comfortable with a matrixed reporting structure; reporting directly to the Director, Climate Grand Challenge, as well as a dotted line to the NAM Director of Strategic Communications & Engagement. This position will sit within the CGC team and will serve as the CGC team liaison to the Communications Team to ensure the cohesion of communications and engagement strategies. This position will also work closely with the directors and teams for CWB and the Action Collaborative on Decarbonizing the U.S. Health Sector (a CGC workstream), specifically on the work of their movements and campaigns.
