Reporting to the CEO and Registrar, the Deputy Registrar is a crucial member of the College’s leadership team. The role serves primarily as the organization’s Medical Advisor providing strategic medical expertise to leadership on policy, regulatory decisions, complex matters, and stakeholder engagement. They oversee and coordinate the work of the College’s Medical Advisors, identifying work, ensuring coverage, and providing coordination across advisors to ensure the overall quality and timeliness of medical expertise and guidance.

  • Communications Operational Oversight: Provide operational oversight of Communications, including day-to-day supervision of the Communications team, managing HR responsibilities for the department, and partnering with the CEO and Registrar on high-level messaging and sensitive issues.
