Full Time

86335BR

Job Summary

The UCSF Division of Geriatrics seeks to recruit a full-time PREPARE Content Manager (PCM) to work closely with the Principal Investigator (PI) and her PREPARE for Your Care team. The focus of the PI's program is investigating and improving healthcare communication and decision making in older persons. The PI's research focuses on aging, health literacy, health disparities, developing and testing tools to facilitate health communication and informed medical decision making, especially for historically marginalized older adults. The PREPARE Content Manager will be the project manager for all educational content for the PREPARE for Your Care program, an easy-to-use, online, secure, advance care planning (ACP) program that uses video stories and easy-to-read advance directives to help people make medical decisions. The program also includes easy-to-read advance directives for all 50 states in multiple languages. The PCM will report to and work directly with the UCSF Principal Investigator (PI). The PREPARE Content Manager will also work and collaborate with other members of team on a series of grants and projects related to PREPARE.

Under the supervision of the PI, the PCM will be responsible for various programmatic and operational functions and communication efforts across a broad range of projects related to advance care planning and the PREPARE suite of materials for patients, caregivers, and healthcare providers. The PCM will work closely with several contractors and collaborators, including the PREPARE website developer, certified translations companies, videographers, and other contractors and will be responsible for project management and moving projects related to PREPARE content forward. This work involves collating and tracking data, keeping key study team members, collaborators, and contractors informed, and moving projects forward to meet key deadlines. This position will be responsible for creating scopes of work and submitting purchase orders for the PREPARE content contractors. In addition, the PCM will be responsible for coordinating the translation of our materials in all languages and will also be translating and checking the translations in Spanish. This position will apply standard health literacy principles to ensure all content is written at the 5th-grade reading level and is culturally adapted for diverse populations. This will involve conducting focus groups and pilot testing of new material and translating user feedback into updated content.

The PREPARE Content Manager will also be responsible for working directly with our website contractor on all content updates, additions, and refinements, as well as marketing and public-facing content. The incumbent will also be responsible for leading all content and video-based projects, including creating story boards and actor scripts, actor selection, on-site video production assistance, reviewing video edited drafts, copy editing and reviewing all materials, and conducting pilot and user testing. The PREPARE Contents Manager will also provide Spanish translations and other projects related to the overall success of the PREPARE program. Lead yearly (and more often as needed) collaborations with UC Law San Francisco to review each US state's updated advance directive law and translate those laws to 5th-grade reading level content for the PREPARE national advance directives. With this work, the PREPARE Content Manager will then coordinate updated translations and publishing of all the advance directives for all 50 states and work closely with our website developer to ensure they are made available to the public.

The PREPARE Contents Manager will additionally perform administrative tasks including coordinating meetings, setting agendas, taking notes, maintaining documents/files, ordering project supplies, submitting expense reports, as well as coordinating training materials and updating Standing Operating Procedures (SOPs).

The UCSF Division of Geriatrics highly values mutual respect and collegiality, and the PREPARE Contents Manager is an essential and highly respected part of our team. We are looking for a highly motivated candidate who is passionate about improving health outcomes in older adults, with a specific interest and expertise in Spanish-speaking older adults and health literacy. The ideal candidate is a problem solver who will be able to troubleshoot issues with limited supervision, be highly resourceful, and be able to juggle multiple projects at any given time.

The final salary and offer components are subject to additional approvals based on UC policy.
