As a UW employee, you have a unique opportunity to change lives on our campuses, in our state and around the world. UW employees offer their boundless energy, creative problem solving skills and dedication to build stronger minds and a healthier world.

UW faculty and staff also enjoy outstanding benefits, professional growth opportunities and unique resources in an environment noted for diversity, intellectual excitement, artistic pursuits and natural beauty.

Do you have a drive to improve health and equity around the world and a mind for business? There may be an opportunity for you to help strengthen the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME) at the University of Washington.

IHME has been one of the leading organizations providing data for science-based decision-making during the COVID-19 crisis, decisions that have led to increased public safety measures. IHME funds its work in part through a social enterprise – IHME Client Services – that licenses access to IHME’s data to support our work and helps facilitate analytic services to meet organizations’ needs.

IHME is committed to providing the evidence base necessary to help solve the world’s most important health problems. This requires creativity and innovation, which is cultivated by an inclusive, diverse, and equitable environment that respects and appreciates differences, embraces collaboration, and invites the voices of all IHME team members.

IHME Client Services shares IHME’s mission to create a world in which everyone can live a long life in full health. We have built a team culture that is positive, inclusive, and fun. In the spirit of collaboration, we share praise with each other and welcome constructive critique. Everyone on the team knows that we succeed together, fail together, and adapt our approach together, whenever necessary. That is how we will ultimately drive down inequalities globally and make a healthier world for all.

IHME Client Services is seeking a detail-oriented, self-driven Associate to help us manage and expand our Analytic Services Portfolio as we work to advance IHME’s mission of improving equity globally. The Associate will engage directly with clients, serve as a relationship manager with organizations, market our Analytic Services, and guide organizations in maximizing use of IHME data. The individual in this role will provide critical input to Analytic Services initiatives, help design and implement projects, manage specific workstreams, and help produce high-quality project deliverables on time. This role can be fully remote with travel, barring travel restrictions, to Seattle and to client offices worldwide.

Here are some more details about the role:

Project Management and Deliverable Production
  • Simultaneously lead multiple technical projects toward on-time delivery.
  • Synthesize information provided by clients and integrate that information into project deliverables.
  • Contribute to the production of tools, reports and other deliverables from concept to finished product with critical thinking and creativity.
  • Liaise with other teams at IHME to ensure mutual understanding of project needs and timelines.

    Client Engagement and Business Development
  • Engage with clients. Help them make the best use of IHME’s data to drive better decision-making, leading to project extensions and new projects.
  • Oversee the development of agreements with clients, working closely with finance officers, procurement specialists, and legal experts as necessary.
  • Leverage successful projects by developing them into prototypes for future projects for existing and future clients.
  • Work with IHME Client Services leadership to develop individual and team revenue targets – and work to achieve them.

    Training and Knowledge Transfer
  • Demonstrate data tools and project deliverables to client organizations.
  • Communicate with clients, faculty, and other stakeholders to develop a strong understanding of the nature and context of the data.
  • Represent IHME Client Services at meetings and speaking opportunities.

    General
  • Be a true teammate: dependable, collaborative, and positive.
  • Perform additional duties as assigned that fall within the reasonable scope of this position as member of the team.

  • Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, team-oriented research environment with a focus on producing results.
