We're hiring a Development Officer to lead that expansion: someone who can open doors with new teaching hospitals and academic institutions, build durable partnerships, shepherd new residency program applications, and advocate for the physician candidates working to secure residency.

This is a relationship-driven, mission-driven role. Success looks like new affiliations signed, new programs in the application pipeline, a growing institutional network, and stronger pathways for candidates seeking residency.

Partnership & Network Building

Philanthropy & Relationship Management

• Manage philanthropic relationships in support of the Foundation's GME mission — cultivating and stewarding donors and funding partners.
• Align partner and donor interests with program priorities and expansion goals.

Candidate Advocacy

• Advocate for physician candidates seeking residency, championing access and creating pathways into newly developed programs.
• Serve as a connective point between candidates, partner institutions, and the Foundation's programs.

Relationship Discipline

• Maintain consistent follow‑up, build genuine rapport, and sustain relationships across hospitals, universities, donors, and candidates.
• Track pipeline, partnerships, and outcomes; report progress to leadership.

Qualifications

• Experience in graduate medical education (GME) — ideally including managing or administering residency programs.
• Strong working knowledge of the residency process: the Match, accreditation pathways, and how programs are built and sponsored.
• Demonstrated success opening and managing institutional relationships — with hospitals, universities, or health systems.
• Experience in philanthropy / relationship management or development.
• Excellent relationship‑building, follow‑up, and communication skills; credible with hospital executives, academic leaders, and donors.
• Willingness to travel nationally to build and maintain partnerships.

Preferred
