Cancer Center Director Opportunity

The Director will be responsible for developing and implementing a vision for the Cancer Center that expands its clinical activities, scientific discoveries and education initiatives. Will work with the Vice Chancellor of Health Sciences, Dean of the School of Medicine and CEO of University Health Care to guide strategic planning and evaluation, scientific direction, community outreach, coordinated delivery of multidisciplinary clinical cancer care, advancement activities, and organizational administration.

Candidates should be highly regarded for their effective leadership skills and their ability to develop interdisciplinary collaborations. Qualifications include an M.D. or M.D./Ph.D. degree and an outstanding record of research and clinical accomplishments in cancer or related fields. Experience at an NCI-designated cancer center is strongly preferred. Rank and academic department are dependent upon qualifications.

This Cancer Center has a long tradition of outstanding, interdisciplinary patient care, research and education. A new $54 million Cancer Center to replace the current center is scheduled to open in early 2013. The new Cancer Center will be uniquely positioned within the University campus, which is one of a half dozen universities with Veterinary Medicine, Medicine, and Animal Science on the same campus. This combination, when allied with Engineering, Biological Sciences, a research reactor and other disciplines, allows unique approaches to comparative medicine in both basic and translational research and ultimately in clinical applications. Outstanding compensation including full benefits is being extended.
