Executive Director
Tennessee Society of Association Executives, Reston, Virginia, United States, 22090
Executive Director
THE OPPORTUNITY
The International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis (ISTH) seeks a strategic leader to serve as Executive Director. For more than 50 years, the ISTH has been the trusted global authority on clotting and bleeding disorders, bringing together the world's leading scientists, clinicians, and healthcare professionals to advance discovery, elevate clinical standards, and improve patient outcomes worldwide. The Society's credibility and influence span academia, clinical practice, industry, and policy across more than 100 countries. This is an exceptional defining opportunity to strategically lead one of the world's most respected international scientific societies into the future during a moment of expanded possibility, positioning the ISTH to leverage its unparalleled global network of experts to drive greater scientific influence, build transformative partnerships, and create sustainable, diversified revenue growth.
The opportunity is clear: leverage the ISTH's scientific standing, authority, and global expert network to expand partnerships with major foundations, academic institutions, governments, and industry, and create new revenue streams, deepening global impact and strengthening long-term sustainability. This requires a leader who understands nonprofit governance and scientific organization culture; who can build trust with volunteer leadership and diverse stakeholders; who thinks creatively about partnership models and funding innovation; and who has the operational discipline to execute strategy while empowering a talented, distributed staff team.
ABOUT THE ISTH The ISTH is the leading global organization advancing science, education, and clinical excellence in thrombosis and hemostasis. The ISTH convenes the world’s distinguished scientists, spanning academia, clinical practice, industry, and public health, unified by a shared commitment to reducing the burden of thrombosis and hemostasis diseases. This international network of experts drives discovery, sets scientific and clinical standards, and improves patient outcomes worldwide.
The ISTH shapes the scientific and clinical agenda of the field through its internationally renowned annual Congress, high-impact peer‑reviewed journals, and a comprehensive global education portfolio. The ISTH sets scientific standards through internationally recognized guidelines, standardized nomenclature, and rigorous methodology. The ISTH demonstrates deep commitment to global health equity through signature initiatives, including World Thrombosis Day, a worldwide awareness and prevention campaign, and the Reach‑the‑World program, which expands education and engagement in under‑resourced regions. This global orientation, coupled with strong relationships across academia, industry, and public health policymakers (WHO, CDC), positions ISTH as a trusted leader in shaping the future of the field.
The organizational strength of the ISTH is based on a 30‑person headquarters, a highly experienced staff leadership team with more than 65 years of combined institutional and industry expertise, and a dedicated governing Council of international scientific and clinical experts. The scientific breadth of the Society is further supported by an internationally diverse volunteer leadership serving on more than 30 committees of Council and the Scientific and Standardization Committee (SSC), thereby providing a strong foundation for strategic growth, innovation, and sustained impact.
STRATEGIC CONTEXT The ISTH stands at a critical threshold for expansion and refinement of its mission. The field of thrombosis and hemostasis is evolving rapidly, shaped by advances in precision medicine, digital health, and a growing global recognition that these diseases demand coordinated, systems‑level attention. Simultaneously, major organizations, mission‑driven institutions, and government agencies are increasingly seeking partnerships with scientific organizations that can provide trusted guidance, elevate standards, and drive impact in underserved regions.
These organizations face a rapidly changing environment of research funding, health care delivery, and education. ISTH's current revenue model relies on its successful annual Congress, publishing, educational programs, and membership. These strong, established revenue streams require further diversification, built on an authentic strategy that leverages the society's unique strengths, unmatched global network of scientific experts, credibility, independence, and ability to set standards and shape the field.
The Executive Director will integrate the deep scientific knowledge and organizational strengths of the organization to lead this evolution by transcending and amplifying what the ISTH does best – connecting world‑class scientists and clinicians around shared scientific purposes – and creating partnerships that make that network valuable to funders, institutions, and the communities ISTH serves. This requires both strategic vision and operational discipline: the ability to identify viable partnership opportunities, negotiate collaborations, manage new initiatives, and ensure all team efforts remain aligned with ISTH's scientific mission and values.
ROLE OVERVIEW The Executive Director serves as Chief Executive Officer, reporting to the elected Council and Executive Committee while working in close partnership with volunteer scientific leadership across the ISTH. The Executive Director is the organization's strategic architect and operational leader, responsible for translating ISTH's scientific mission into strategic direction, executing the Council‑approved strategic plan, and ensuring the Society operates with financial health, integrity of governance, and organizational excellence.
