  4. Partner closely with clinical, research, and executive leadership to align communications strategies with broader institutional messaging, brand strategy, scientific priorities, and enterprise communications goals.
  5. Lead proactive and reactive media engagement across local, regional, national, and international outlets, identifying opportunities to elevate faculty expertise, scientific breakthroughs, and Boston Children’s role as a leading academic research hospital.
  6. Coordinate and oversee interviews, briefings, embargoes, and on-the-record engagements.
