We are looking for a seasoned public and government affairs/advocacy/stakeholder engagement expert to lead the EIT Health Public Affairs and Stakeholder Relations (PASR) function. PASR is responsible for Public Affairs, the EIT Health Think Tank, Strategic Alliance Development (ie, collaboration with 3rd party organisations), and the identification of complementary funding instruments. Together, these activities aim to shape the external environment so that it is conducive to health innovation which will improve people’s lives, while supporting Europe to flourish economically and grow sustainably. Ultimately, relevant stakeholder engagement at both the EU, regional and national level will position EIT Health as a vital instrument to support the transformation of health. The identification of activities prone to contribute to the organisation’s future sustainability is also key.
