This role blends project management, technology, administrative coordination, and member relations. One hour you may be tracking manuscripts and deadlines in Excel; the next, helping a physician navigate our Editorial Management System on Zoom. Our Project Managers work collaboratively while independently owning assigned responsibilities. Because we're a small nonprofit, they also work cross-functionally and may periodically support different projects or departments as organizational needs evolve.

• Communicate with physician authors, editors, faculty, and institutional partners and lead Zoom meetings and provide technology and process support
