The journey for a patient with a brain tumor is an emotional one. Newly diagnosed patients usually present in the emergency department following a change in vision, balance, or cognitive function. Their world is soon turned upside down in a race to surgery. Far too many patients (~50% for glioblastomas) recur within a few months and are forced, with dedicated family members and clinicians, to navigate treatment options yet again. Unfortunately, it has been over a decade since an innovative option has been cleared by FDA…until GammaTile® Therapy! GT Medical™ technologies exists for those patients, care givers, and clinicians who need a better option. Our Corporate Purpose is to Improve the Lives of Patients with Brain Tumors and that drives us every day. 

GammaTile® Therapy is supported by 100 amazing teammates who collaborate organically, challenge appropriately, and are consumed with assisting the next patient on the table. We have a great core team, an innovative solution, and the finances to support more growth. We are now in need of a Project Manager for our manufacturing facility in Richland, WA. If you have a heart for patients with brain tumors, excellent project management skills, and and a good balance of strategy and tactical execution, we’d love to talk to you!
