The successful candidate will have a strong reputation as a clinician, scholar, mentor, and collaborative leader. The position includes an appointment at Harvard Medical School commensurate with the candidate’s experience and academic accomplishments. Applicants will preferably be at the rank of Associate Professor or Professor, although exceptional candidates at other academic ranks may be considered.

Qualifications

The Division Chief will provide visionary leadership, strategic direction, and operational oversight for the division.

Working closely with leadership across MGBfC, HVI, and the broader health system, the chief will have a crucial opportunity to strengthen the integration of pediatric and adult cardiovascular care, build programs that support patients across the lifespan, and develop a cohesive vision for the future of pediatric and congenital cardiovascular care at Mass General Brigham.

The division’s position within MGB and MGBfC creates distinctive opportunities to expand clinical programs, strengthen cardiovascular research and education, and develop innovative models of care extending from childhood through adulthood.
