The VP RA provides leadership, strategic direction, and operational oversight for all eight research centers via their Center Business Operations department offices (CBO), the Office of Sponsored Research (OSR), and Office of Research Finance (ORF).
The VP RA will be a member of the Research Institute's Senior Administrative Leadership Team and Center Director and Administrator Council (CDAC), collaborating with the Chief Research Operations Officer, Chief Scientific Officer, Chief Academic Officer, Center Directors and other Research, Hospital, and Foundation senior leaders to develop and implement the vision and goals for the academic future and sustainability of the SCRI.
