Work type: Staff Full or Part Time, Staff-Full Time, Staff-Part Time
Department: SMPH/POP HEALTH SCI/POP HLTH
Location: Madison
Categories: Environmental, Occupational Health and Safety, Grant, Research, Contract Management, Health Care, Medical, Social Services, Research, Scientific
Position Summary:
This position is located in the Wisconsin Department of Health Services (DHS), Division of Public Health (DPH), Bureau of Environmental and Occupational Health (BEOH), Hazard Assessment Section and is maintained through a contract and ongoing partnership with the UW School of Medicine and Public Health's Department of Population Health Sciences (PHS).
The evaluation specialist is responsible for developing, coordinating, and implementing program evaluation activities for DHS' CDC-funded Environmental Health Capacity project. Through this project, DHS will improve Wisconsin's ability to respond to environmental health hazards that limit access to healthy homes and safe drinking water and prevent successful natural disaster response and recovery. Through this project, DHS will build and strengthen partnerships with traditional and non-traditional health partners, identify factors contributing to hazard, and implement and evaluate interventions to identify, prevent, and control these hazards.
Evaluation activities include developing and leading evaluation measures for this project, providing technical assistance to partners and conducting annual assessments to ensure continuous quality improvement within the program. This position may also work with program leads to develop and conduct evaluation activities in other Hazard Assessment programs.
The School of Medicine and Public Health has a deep and profound commitment to diversity both as an end in itself but, also as a valuable means for eliminating health disparities. As such, we strongly encourage applications from candidates who foster and promote the values of diversity and inclusion.
