Science Advocacy Executive

RESPONSIBILITIES:

This role requires a passionate storyteller who has the key talent to captivate an audience, be it written or oral. This ability hinges on the role to effectively narrate ‘technical’ science to the public at large.

Responsibilities include, but are not limited to:

• Understand the Science and translate into public content for mass consumption & awareness growth
• Assist & enable Marcoms to productize CRMY work & results, so donors find it easier to comprehend how their donations provide impact and contribute to CRMY efforts & successes
• Be the front-liners to deliver talks, tours and speeches (virtually & in-person) for programs developed by Marcoms and CRMY’s Crowd-Funding Committee
• Drive community interest and awareness to incentivize significant increases in donor acquisitions and donor engagements through advocacy activities
• Co-develop and co-manage (with Marcoms) a Patient Volunteer Program – for CRMY advocacy and patients-to-public speaking related to patient experiences and journeys

REQUIREMENT:

• Science educational background, especially in pharmaceutical, research, medical or cancer aspects would be most crucial
• Working experience in some research and some science community communication would be preferred to ensure the candidates understand our science work and yet can talk to the public about these topics in a non-technical manner
• Personal passion for communicating to people would be ideal as this advocacy role requires the candidates to be comfortable with content creation and public presentation delivery (in small and large events, either online or in-person)
• Experience in developing and managing (with Marcoms) a Patient Volunteer Program would be welcome, for CRMY advocacy and public speaking related to patient experiences and journeys
