Search for the Chief, Division of Blood and Vascular Disorders

Penn State Health – Milton S. Hershey Medical Center

Hershey, Pennsylvania

 

Penn State Health – Milton S. Hershey Medical Center (Hershey Medical Center) in collaboration with Penn State College of Medicine is seeking an accomplished Physician-scientist-educator to serve as the inaugural Chief of the Division of Blood and Vascular Disorders, holding a named Professorship in Hematology. This is an outstanding opportunity for a dynamic academic leader to serve in a critically important role in concert with Laboratory Medicine in the Department of Pathology and the Institute of Personalized Medicine in the Penn State College of Medicine (PSCOM), to develop a regional center of excellence in Hemostasis and Thrombosis. Supported by a strong commitment across the Penn State Health campus, the inaugural Chief will expand and further develop research in the field of inherited and acquired non-malignant blood and vascular disorders.

 

As the leader of this newly developed and emerging Division, the Chief will focus on strategically advancing the Division’s clinical care programs, education initiatives, and research portfolio while continuing to exceed national standards of excellence in these domains. In support of this mission, the Chief’s appointment to a named professorship will provide salary supplementation and support towards research expenditures to ensure continued laboratory-based medicine and clinical research focused on inherited disorders of hemostasis.

 

The Inaugural Chief will bring demonstrated experience in inspiring, managing, mentoring, and galvanizing a faculty and staff rich in diverse experiences and backgrounds. In response to an ever-evolving healthcare environment, both regionally and nationally, the Chief will develop and implement an overall vision for expanding clinical services through purposeful deliberations with leaders across the college, the medical center, and Penn State Health to formulate an ongoing strategy that builds market share and effectively allocates resources.

 

The Chief will have considerable autonomy in advancing an overarching strategy for the division. Resources are available to recruit additional faculty to help grow clinical and research programs focused on non-malignant bleeding and clotting disorders and sickle cell disease. With responsibility for the overall management of the Division, the Chief will directly oversee its financial and human resources, delivery of the highest quality of care, promotion of basic and clinical research, and the continuing education of its faculty.

 

The Chief is eligible for an exceptional support package, including appointment to a named Hematology professorship and access to significant resources from 340B Program income from the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) grant to the Hemophilia Treatment Center.

 

The successful candidate will have earned a medical degree and board certification (or board eligibility) in Internal Medicine and in Hematology with particular expertise in hemostasis and thrombosis. With at least five years of Hematology administrative and leadership experience, the named chief will qualify for a tenure-track appointment at the full professor rank and, above all else, exemplify a commitment to providing excellent clinical care in an environment that emphasizes state-of-the-art education and ground-breaking research.
