About The Position
Beth Israel Lahey Health is seeking a Research Program Administrator to manage and coordinate the day-to-day operations of Dr. Robert Yeh’s research portfolio at the Richard A. and Susan F. Smith Institute for Evidence, Innovation, and Policy. Working under the direction of Administrative Director Joanne Laffan and Dr. Yeh, the administrator coordinates activities, tracks deadlines and deliverables, anticipates operational needs, and ensures timely follow-through. The research evaluates the safety, effectiveness, quality, and value of cardiovascular devices and therapies using clinical registries, electronic health record data, administrative claims data, and multi-site collaborations. The portfolio includes investigator-initiated and sponsored studies supported by the National Institutes of Health, the American College of Cardiology, and industry sponsors.

Work includes study start-up, regulatory submissions, contractual coordination, grant submissions, budget tracking, sponsor communications, reporting, and closeout. The successful candidate takes ownership of assigned projects and operational processes, resolves routine issues independently, and escalates matters requiring administrative or scientific decisions to appropriate leadership. The role requires maintaining a clear view of project status, anticipating barriers, and following through on next steps with minimal prompting.
