Boston, Massachusetts, United States Cancer Grand Challenges Full time

THE OPPORTUNITY

Cancer is, and will continue to be, a major burden on societies
worldwide. This problem is not unique to any single country but
instead is a global challenge that does not recognize borders.

Through many decades of research, a deep understanding of many
aspects of how cancer is initiated, develops and spreads is being
gained. This understanding is now being translated into novel
prevention strategies and a compendium of increasingly advanced
treatments.

However, despite these breakthroughs many tough, stubborn
challenges continue to impede progress. Solving these challenges
holds the key to a decidedly different outcome for the many
millions diagnosed with cancer each year. To make radical progress
against these challenges requires an elite, global community of
cancer researchers to collaborate across borders, with a relentless
focus on solving them. To make the radical progress against these
challenges Cancer Grand Challenges was established.

Cancer Grand Challenges is now seeking to appoint a Director of
Foundation and Corporate Relations. The Director of Foundation and
Corporate Relations will develop and manage the foundation and
corporate relations program that will seek to generate early and
substantial support for Cancer Grand Challenges. Cancer Grand
Challenges is therefore seeking an experienced foundation and
corporate relations professional, who will be responsible for

Cancer Grand Challenges

Cancer Grand Challenges supports an elite community of
international research teams to come together, think differently,
and solve some of cancer's toughest challenges. With a series of
$25 million awards, Cancer Grand Challenges teams are empowered to
rise above the traditional boundaries of geography and scientific
discipline, in order to accelerate scientific progress, and to
ultimately change outcomes for people with cancer.

Founded by the two largest funders of cancer research in the
world - Cancer Research
UK and the National Cancer Institute in the United States - and
uniting an international community of partners, Cancer Grand
Challenges aims to make the radical progress against cancer that is
urgently needed.
