The UCLA Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center (UCLA JCCC) is one of just 53 cancer centers in the United States to hold a
National Cancer Institute (NCI) designation as a comprehensive cancer center. This designation is reserved for cancer centers with the highest achievements in cancer research, clinical care, education, and community-focused activities. As such, it ranks the UCLA JCCC among the top centers in the nation. The UCLA JCCC’s mission is to accelerate discoveries that prevent and cure cancer and to transform cancer care in Los Angeles County and beyond by driving scientific discovery, innovations in care, by training and
mentoring the next generation of cancer researchers and physicians, and by working with and supporting our community partners to improve the health of the people the Center serves.
Under the direction of the Research Administration Manager, the Research Administrative Specialist performs a variety of professional and administrative duties in support of the day-to-day operations of the UCLA JCCC. He/she will assist in planning and development, and management of research administration activities and other administrative activities. This includes coordination of the center’s membership application process, monitoring various systems to resolve problems, and providing recommendations for continuous process improvements and best practices to support administration of the NCI Cancer Center Support Grant (CCSG, Grant # P30CA016042), CCSG supplements and other cancer-related awards and activities, as assigned. The Research Administrative Specialist is part of the Research Administration Unit (also known as the Grants Team) within the JCCC Business Office and serves as a point of contact for Cancer Center membership, database system updates, and grants facilitation services. He/she monitors and analyzes information in various databases, and also interprets institutional, federal, and departmental policies in order to assist with the preparation of programmatic reports and grant proposals. Specific duties may include assisting with the creation, analysis and editing of National Institutes of Health (NIH) Biosketches, Other Support documents and other required grant materials as needed, and of data reports to facilitate review of faculty membership and changes in cancer-relevant productivity at the Cancer Center. The Research Administrative Specialist is expected to learn the day-to-day programmatic reporting and non-financial activity of the CCSG for noncompeting reports and competing continuation applications to the NCI. The position requires administrative experience in multiple areas and focuses heavily on cancer center administration, data interpretation and monitoring, and providing support that impacts the overall goals of the Cancer Center.
