Senior Oncology Patient Advocate (Part-Time Remote)
About The Position
PharmaCentra is seeking a compassionate, experienced Senior Oncology Patient Advocate to support cancer patients and their families as they navigate treatment decisions, physician appointments, healthcare resources, and the many challenges that can accompany a cancer diagnosis. This is a part-time remote position with a preferred schedule of approximately 20 hours per week. Some afternoon and early evening availability may be needed to accommodate patients and caregivers who are unavailable during traditional business hours. The client may consider an alternative staffing model utilizing two advocates with complementary schedules; however, candidates available for approximately 20 hours per week are strongly preferred. This opportunity offers the unique chance to become the foundational Subject Matter Expert (SME) for a growing oncology advocacy program. The individual selected for this role will receive training on established program workflows and will play a significant role in helping shape future processes, training materials, quality standards, and program growth initiatives. At PharmaCentra, we believe exceptional patient support starts with empathy, accountability, collaboration, and a genuine commitment to helping others. We are seeking someone who can build trust, communicate clearly, listen actively, and provide compassionate guidance during what is often one of the most difficult times in a patient's life.
