About the role Work on the creation of new MEDLIFE Chapters, clubs and associations in universities, colleges and high schools globally.
Our Chapters are student-led, and thus the primary responsibility for the expansion team is identifying interested students, with the right leadership skills, in various educational institutions and then guiding them through the process of developing a chapter in their school. This means we spend a lot of time talking about MEDLIFE's mission and work in the field, assisting with recruiting within the school, supporting with social media, and working together to get school approval.
