Welcome back to our Chief Data Officer/Chief Analytics Officer JOBS Update through March 2020.

I do hope everyone is safe and healthy. Sincere thanks to our first responders, medical professionals, and all those on the front line.

It is essential for everyone to do their part to flatten the curve of COVID-19, including CDOs and CAOs. Over the next few weeks, our emails will feature some of the things our community has been working on to help in slowing the spread of the corona virus.

For example, I received an email from Caitlin Halferty, Director of IBM’s AI Accelerator and Client Success, inquiring if I knew the Chief Data Officer at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

While I do know the CDC’s super-capable CIO (Suzi Connor) and CTO (Jaspal Sagoo), I did not think the organization had a dedicated CDO. Yet.

Last week on April 1, 2020, the CDC officially announced it was seeking a Chief Data Officer, once again showing the critical importance of the role – especially during a pandemic.

Kudos to Caitlin at IBM for spotting the need and opportunity.

If you want a position with REAL IMPACT, this is it. Your role at the CDC could help save lives.

Regular readers of our JOBS Updates can likely name a dozen top candidates.

Or, perhaps it is YOUR dream to work at the Centers for Disease Control?

Either way, let’s help the CDC get the best possible person into this critical role by providing some qualified candidates ASAP.

Alert your co-workers and colleagues: the CDC job listing can be found on our CAREER PORTAL. You do not need to be a CDO Club member to see that post, or to apply.
