Join Our Team as a Program Coordinator in Transgender Health Research

**The opportunity**:
Are you passionate about making a difference in the lives of transgender youth? If so, we have an exciting opportunity for you to contribute to groundbreaking research that aims to improve the healthcare and wellbeing of transgender children and adolescents.

As a Program Coordinator, you will play a crucial role in coordinating the research activities of the Australian Research Consortium for Trans Youth and Children (ARCTYC) and the Transgender Health Research Group at MCRI. This includes managing the program of work under the direction of Associate Professor Ken Pang and coordinating communications, research ethics, and research translation activities.

About your new team

Recent years have seen a significant increase in referrals of young transgender individuals to specialist gender services. The prevalence of young people identifying as transgender is higher than previously thought, highlighting the critical need for optimal clinical care. Unfortunately, many transgender youth face significant mental health challenges due to lack of access to gender-affirming healthcare. Our team at the Royal Children’s Hospital Gender Service (RCHGS) and the Transgender Health Research Group at MCRI are dedicated to addressing this need through pioneering research and clinical care.

Liaise and work cohesively and collaboratively with all internal and external ARCTYC stakeholders
Ensure appropriate mechanisms are in place for all ARCTYC projects, including ethics requirements, research and data governance, risk management, reporting, and compliance with funding and contractual obligations
Convene, facilitate and lead ARCTYC meetings across its various streams of work to achieve project outcomes
