The director will oversee a team of researchers working on health equity, focusing on Black maternal health, reproductive justice and abortion access, and universal coverage.

  • Authoring reports and commentary on health equity issues and overseeing policy research projects by internal and external contributors on issues in the health policy field.
  • Establishing and maintaining strong networks among health care advocates, policymakers, and colleagues at other think thanks to share information, collaborate, and advance equitable health care for all.
  • Lifting TCF’s profile and influence as a leader on health policy, including engaging with the media and on social media, speaking at and hosting conferences and convenings, briefing policymakers on TCF’s health policy agenda, and more.
  • Working in partnership with TCF’s development team on fundraising and development strategy, including cultivating new funding sources and ensuring TCF continues to deliver high-quality research and deliverables for existing funding partners.
  • Managing a team of three direct reports and collaborating with other TCF policy teams on projects that overlap with health care policy.

Qualifications

  • At least ten years of experience in health care policy, research, or public service/practice, and the ability to evaluate and recommend improvements in the area of health policy reform through an equity lens.
  • A graduate degree or higher in a related field is preferred.
  • Specific research or policy background in health equity, maternal health, reproductive justice, and/or expanding health care coverage, with additional health policy expertise viewed highly.
  • Existing working relationships with health care peer organizations, advocates, and policymakers that would help advance health equity and health care reform.
  • Demonstrated ability to produce rigorous research, as well as policy papers, issue briefs, and commentary appropriate for policymakers and public audiences.
  • Political acuity and the ability to craft research and policy recommendations to maximize effectiveness in light of political constraints and opportunities.
  • Experience in, or a willingness to learn, how to build and maintain relationships with funding partners to achieve even greater policy impact, including developing proposals, cultivating relationships, and managing projects.
  • A relentless passion for policy change, public service, and driving health care reform.
