The posting

CancerNavigator is an early-stage healthcare company (remote, headquartered in Washington, D.C.) dedicated to supporting cancer patients in their hour of need.

Our Mission & Our Work, in Brief

Cancer is the number one cause of death for commercially insured Americans and the top cost driver for health plans. And, cancer patients are struggling.

CancerNavigator is a white-glove, end-to-end, cancer support service for patients and their families. We work with health plans across the country to provide 1-1 support to members facing a cancer diagnosis. All of our support is delivered through dedicated Oncology Certified Nurses, who work with members to catch cancer early, get them to fantastic experts for their care, and help them through the thousands of other problems patients and their families face.

Join us to help serve cancer patients in their hour of need.

The “Research Associate” Role

The number one priority of a research associate is to produce high-quality research that will help patients understand crucial information in their hour of need. Research Associates support the following efforts:

  • Creating Custom Documents for Patients: The Patient Service Team’s mandate is to help cancer patients make decisions in this difficult hour of need, and our mechanism for serving patients is education. The primary responsibility for a researcher on our team is to create excellent tailored documents for patients, and to collaborate with our oncology nurse navigators to teach each patient what they need to know about their specific situation. This is an “on-demand” function – when patients need help, our entire team jumps into action.
  • Enhancing Our Research Base: Our team has spent over five years building a deep research foundation on nearly every cancer type and subtype, which we use to inform the education and guidance we deliver to patients. The cancer landscape is continually evolving, and our research base requires updating regularly to reflect changes in diagnostics, treatment protocols, techniques, and more. A central function of a research associate is to assist in the enhancement of our core research base by identifying gaps in our research as we serve patients, and occasionally performing research “deep dives” to fill in those gaps.

The Requirements

The right person for this role would be eager to jump in immediately and begin mastering the clinical content. More specifically, we are looking for someone with:

  • 1-2 years of professional research experience on clinical topics
  • Experience reading and examining academic literature on medical subjects
  • Ability to quickly master complex clinical content in both depth and breadth
  • Ability to execute research projects autonomously
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, PowerPoint)

Preferred Qualifications

  • Masters degree requiring research in a related field
  • Willingness to work MST hours

Compensation and Benefits

  • Salary Range: $71k-76k (dependent on qualifications and experience)
  • Remote-first work; live where you want within the continental U.S.
  • All-company on-sites 2-3 times per year in Washington D.C. (HQ) or other locations
  • Medical and Dental Insurance (80% employer paid), Vision Insurance (100% employer paid)
  • Healthcare and Dependent Care FSA
  • Group Life and AD&D Insurance (involuntary with the option to buy-up coverage)
  • Unlimited PTO

Our Culture & Values, In Brief

We’re building a company where what we do matters. The goal couldn’t be clearer – serve cancer patients. As the business grows, and the work becomes more complex, we need to become more, not less, committed to why we are doing this.

We have three company values, which guide our company:

  1. Patients first, always: In everything we do, we put the cancer patient (and their families) first; we exist to serve them in their most urgent moments.
  2. Respect for our responsibility: We strive, as a team, to respect the gravity of the responsibility we bear to patients, always acting and producing in a way that is worthy of the trust they have placed in us.
  3. Kindness to and respect for others: We treat our teammates well, no exceptions. We are one team.

At CancerNavigator, we believe a well-rounded and diverse team is a key to our success. We never discriminate on the basis of race, religion, national origin, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, age, or marital, veteran, or disability status.

California Consumer Privacy Act - Job Applicant Notice

We want to let you know how we handle your information under California privacy law (CCPA/CPRA). When you apply, we collect things like your name, contact info, and resume details. If we move forward, we will also collect reference and background check information. We use this information to review your application, schedule interviews, and verify your background. This information is only shared with people who help with hiring, such as the People Op team, hiring managers, and our internal recruiting platforms (e.g., background check, ATS, etc.). Typically, we keep this data for up to two years after the hiring process, unless we need to keep it longer for legal or business reasons. If you live in California, you can ask to see, correct, or delete your information - or ask questions about how it’s used.

Thanks for applying!

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
