Direction also includes staff with external partners - Vancouver Coastal Health Authority and consultants.

Consequence of Error/Judgement

As a key player in the Centre's strategic and leadership team and operating with a high degree of independence and responsibility, the Director - Strategic Operations must exercise superior judgment in all areas and at all times. Errors could result in significant concerns regarding the liability, credibility and integrity of the Centre and the University and may result in an additional financial burden for the Centre and or University. The Director - Strategic Operations will lead an Initiative that has the potential to generate more than $1 million per year for UBC within the next decade. The $40 million RHNH Research Centre at VGH was recently completed with funds from CFI, BCKDF, private donor funds and monies from the Provincial government. In addition to a state of the art customized research facility, CHHM has over $13M of equipment, much of which is found in few other research

______Page No. 156 The University of British Columbia

Staff Job Postings ______centres world-wide. The continued sustainability of the Centre will require development of an innovative strategy for growth in the number of researchers using the equipment. By growing the user-base for the CHHM equipment and facility, the Centre will raise the profile of the Centre (and the University) and provide a revenue source that is vital to CHHM's financial sustainability. Decisions made by the Director - Strategic Operations will directly affect CHHM's ability to compete internationally as a leading research centre. The Centre is a hub for international student recruitment and the ability of the Centre to continue expand this capacity directly relates to its profile. This also affects the Centre's and the University's ability to recruit and retain outstanding faculty members and staff and to attract research funding from international sources. Decisions made by the Director - Strategic Operations will affect the success or otherwise of the Centre. This position is key in the development of the Centre's strategic plan for sustainability. In addition to a high level of tact and discretion, the incumbent must have a strong knowledge and understanding of the issues facing the centre, the university, affiliated partners and the local and national community. The incumbent must work independently and largely outside of defined terms of reference and draw from knowledge of University and Faculty of Medicine policies and practices and an expertise in research, research management and research operations in order to determine the appropriate course of action. The Director - Strategic Operations must also have a demonstrated ability to manage a philanthropic fundraising campaign and high-level finances. Poor leadership or improper advice actions would have a serious negative impact on the reputation of the Centre and the university. The CHHM Sustainability Plan contains a "marketing" component that is a transition away from the way in which most other department centre-based research facilities are managing operations. It will facilitate access to researchers who may be internal or external to the University as well as to private sector companies with research needs that can be met by the state-of-the-art equipment and facilities available within the Centre. This model will promote the use of equipment to a broad range of users and will support interdisciplinarity within the University and beyond. It has the opportunity to differentiate the Centre (and UBC) in the area of research facilitation and services and would establish UBC as a leader in the adoption of innovative mechanisms to support world class research at a time when traditional funding models are proving to be a challenge. Should this sustainability plan not be completed successfully, it could compromise the Centre's ability to achieve its strategic goals. This position is responsible for developing a new model that will potentially create a revenue stream to support the on-going sustainability of the Centre into the future.
