About the role

As part of a highly collaborative, specialized team of three, you’ll have the unique ability to influence care delivery at scale while still working closely with frontline teams. This role offers the best of both worlds: the autonomy and visibility of a small, agile team paired with the resources, innovation, and reputation of a world-renowned healthcare system.

Site: Mass General Brigham Medical Group, Inc. Mass General Brigham relies on a wide range of professionals, including doctors, nurses, business people, tech experts, researchers, and systems analysts to advance our mission. As a not-for-profit, we support patient care, research, teaching, and community service, striving to provide exceptional care. We believe that high-performing teams drive groundbreaking medical discoveries and invite all applicants to join us and experience what it means to be part of Mass General Brigham. Job Summary Make a System-Wide Impact in Ambulatory Care This is a rare and exciting opportunity to shape infection prevention practices across more than 200 ambulatory care sites within the Mass General Brigham (MGB) system, including primary care, specialty clinics, urgent care, surgical centers, and endoscopy suites. As part of a highly collaborative, specialized team of three, you’ll have the unique ability to influence care delivery at scale while still working closely with frontline teams. This role offers the best of both worlds: the autonomy and visibility of a small, agile team paired with the resources, innovation, and reputation of a world-renowned healthcare system. This role coordinates and supports infection prevention and control initiatives across a diverse network of ambulatory sites, promoting consistent, high-quality standards of care. Responsibilities include surveillance, outbreak investigation, NHSN and non-NHSN reporting, and Environment of Care rounds to identify risks and communicate recommendations to leadership. The role provides infection prevention education and guidance to clinical and non-clinical staff and partners closely with Occupational Health, Environmental Health & Safety, Compliance, and Facilities. It also ensures compliance with local, state, and federal regulations while developing and implementing strategies to reduce infection risk and enhance patient and staff safety. If you are passionate about education, enjoy building relationships across all levels of an organization, and thrive in a dynamic environment where no two days are the same—this role is for you. Why This Role Stands Out
Meaningful Impact: Drive infection prevention strategies across a vast ambulatory network and directly improve patient and staff safety.
Continuous Learning: Exposure to diverse care settings will strengthen your critical thinking, clinical judgment, and problem-solving skills every day.
Autonomy + Flexibility: Enjoy a hybrid schedule with the ability to manage your own time and priorities.
Regional Travel: Regular travel throughout Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Maine—with mileage reimbursement provided.
Highly Collaborative: Partner with clinical leaders, frontline staff, and system stakeholders across all levels.
Hands-On Work: Participate in routine clinic rounding, education, and real-time problem solving. Qualifications Education
