Full Job Description

Overview

Since our founding in 1924, we've cut cardiovascular disease deaths in half, but there is still so much more to do. To overcome today’s biggest health challenges and accelerate this progress, we need passionate individuals like you. Join our movement, be part of the progress, and help ensure a healthier future for all. You matter, and so does the impact you can make with us.

The American Heart Association has an excellent opportunity for a Science and Medicine Advisor (SMA) in our National Center office located in Dallas, TX (Home-Based is acceptable).

The Science and Medicine Advisor (SMA) provides direction and guidance to the numerous US-based and international practicing physicians, scientists, and allied health professional volunteers who provide their clinical and research expertise to the Association. Through strong interpersonal and leadership skills and the SMA’s broad general knowledge of cardiovascular care and science, the SMA works with the science volunteers to produce the Association’s Scientific Statements, Clinical Practice Guidelines, online and face-to-face educational programs, responses to proposed advocacy and policy stances for the Association, and other activities that involve input from clinical and research experts.

In addition, the SMA serves as the in-house expert and resource to other Association staff members who are developing Association programs and projects (e.g., patient programs on atrial fibrillation or women’s health, press releases to the national news media describing new breakthroughs, and review of Association website materials).

The Association offers many resources to help you maintain work-life harmonization through your changing needs and life situations. To help you be successful, you will have access to Heart U, our award-winning corporate university, as well as additional training and support, locally.

#TheAHALife is more than a company culture; it is our way of life.

Responsibilities

Guide and partner with science volunteers (clinicians, researchers, and scientists) in the creation of American Heart Association scientific statements, advisories, guidelines, conference programming, early career mentoring experiences, and the integration of these into other Association activities and programs.
Provide consultation, guidance, and approval on science aspects to internal Association staff who develop and maintain public and professional programs, patient and lay publications, Association websites, press releases, corporate relations, and marketing materials with health and science implications and other public-facing activities.
Work with teams to help review content for Association professional websites and products.
Synthesize, analyze, and explain (verbally and in written communication) to lay professionals and internal Association staff the current state of science and medicine in their portfolios, as well as the implications these have for the Association.
