Title:

Donor Specialist (Northwest Colorado)

Belong. Connect. Grow. With KBR

KBR is seeking a Donor Specialist to support our SPARC Program for KBR's Science and Space division. The SPARC program (Service Personnel Advancing Research on CTE) seeks to:

  1. Provide education to service members, veterans, and their families on brain donation; 2 ) Recover whole specimens, process, and prepare for shipping using appropriate methods. This is an onsite position, rotating between various partner locations each day.

The Donor Specialist will be on-call on a rotating and regular basis and must be available to work nights, weekends, and holidays with previously scheduled on-call shifts.

The preponderance of duties and work time of the Donor Specialist will be focused on:

  • Approaching and educating medically competent military members and veterans about the potential to become a brain donor at the time of their death as part of broader outreach and awareness efforts.

  • Lead and implement all aspects of community partner engagement, stakeholder coordination, and direct interactions with service members, veterans, and family members.

  • Performing facility and community stakeholder engagement through ongoing, primarily face-to-face relationship-building interactions with healthcare facilities, medical examiner offices, funeral homes, and other regional partners.

  • Establish and support regional community partnership and outreach event initiatives to strengthen engagement efforts.

  • Approaching and educating families of potential donors about brain donation at the time of death of their military or veteran family, member, including facilitating the informed consent process with next of kin as appropriate.

  • Serving as the primary point of contact to be notified about potential donors and answering questions from families, healthcare workers, funeral home workers, or individuals who would like to know more about the donation program.

  • Screening donors and coordinating with local coroners, medical examiners, and tissue transport providers to facilitate brain donation for research.

  • Collaborating with Peer/Family Educators on recruitment activities.
