Project Manager, Preddict Program

Site: The Spaulding Rehabilitation Hospital Corporation

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.

We are seeking an exceptional, highly motivated Project Manager to lead operations for PREDDICT, a next-generation clinical and research program at Spaulding Rehabilitation. Focused on predicting, preventing, and improving long-term health and wellness outcomes across high-risk populations, PREDDICT brings together precision rehabilitation medicine, neuroscience, data science, and digital health to redefine how injury and recovery are understood and treated to extend not only lifespan, but HealthSpan - the period of life spent in good health.

Rehabilitation settings treat people with life-changing injuries like brain injury, stroke, burns, spinal cord injury, and limb loss. PREDDICT will leverage electronic health records and machine learning techniques to infuse data-driven decision-making into care for people during a pivotal time in their lives. The program integrates clinical care, longitudinal research, advanced analytics, and system-level implementation to move beyond siloed studies and toward scalable, real-world impact. This role sits at the center of that mission.

The Project Manager will serve as a strategic and operational leader, working closely with physician-scientists, clinical teams, research staff, data scientists, trainees, and external partners. This is not a traditional coordinator role. It is an opportunity to help build and run a high-visibility, interdisciplinary program that shapes the future of rehabilitation and disability health.

The Project Manager will work in a highly matrixed environment, facilitating collaboration between the HealthSpan Lab and the Rehabilitation Outcomes Center at Spaulding.

About the HealthSpan Lab:

The HealthSpan Lab is committed to advancing our understanding of lifelong health. We study the biological, behavioral, and environmental factors that influence healthy aging and long-term function. Our research aims to uncover early markers of decline, identify mechanisms of resilience, and develop interventions that can prevent disease before it begins. By generating evidence across systems and stages of life, we work to improve health outcomes and promote lifelong well-being.

About the Rehabilitation Outcomes Center at Spaulding (ROCS):

The Rehabilitation Outcomes Center at Spaulding is a central hub for researchers, clinicians, and the broader rehabilitation community advancing data-powered care across the full rehabilitation journey-from hospital to home. ROCS offers robust infrastructure for collaboration among investigators, clinicians, and people with lived experience, supported by platforms such as podcasts and open scientific meetings. With an emphasis on Learning Health Systems, ROCS facilitates access to electronic health record analytics, standardized outcome measures, and implementation science expertise, while also offering mentorship and operational support to investigators through its established partnerships and training programs. We make rehab data smarter and better connected so care decisions are based on solid evidence and personalized to the individual. By bridging specialties and systems, we aim to reduce disparities and improve outcomes for people with disabilities-ensuring research translates into real-world impact.
