We’re excited to share an opportunity to join Aetna Medical Affairs as a Lead Director, Clinical and Digital Health Programs
At CVS Health, we’re building a world of health around every consumer. Our colleagues are passionate about transforming health care and making it more connected, convenient, and compassionate. Every day, we work with heart to support the people and communities we serve.
About the role
Aetna Medical Affairs is where clinical strategy meets real-world impact - a center of excellence that partners closely with cross-enterprise teams and business leaders across Commercial, Medicare, and Medicaid to ensure high-value care for members, providers, and plan sponsor clients. We’re an industry leader in advancing clinical programs and strategies that meaningfully improve member and provider experience, quality, and affordability.
We’re looking for a dynamic leader to help shape what’s next.
In this high-visibility role, you'll serve as Lead Director, Clinical and Digital Health Programs, partnering with clinical teams, product, digital, analytics, and external partners to lead the design and execution of clinical, population health, and digital member engagement programs. You'll identify opportunities, shape solutions, build cross-functional alignment, and drive programs from concept through pilot, launch, scale, and evaluation, developing new approaches that keep our programs, products, and partnerships clinically relevant, high quality, and ahead of the curve.
If you thrive on solving complex problems, leading across teams and bringing bold ideas to life, this is your next big move
This is a fully remote position that can be performed in any US time zone, but would need to support the needs of the team and business in CST/EST.
What you'll do
You’ll lead collaboration, drive solutions, and ensure performance. As the go-to connector between Medical Affairs and program, product, and digital development teams, you’ll lead the identification design, and implementation of priority clinical, population health, and digital member engagement programs – working in close collaboration with stakeholders across the business and external partners and ensuring strong clinical oversight, business alignment, and successful execution. You’ll also partner closely with analytics, technology, and other business teams to measure performance, improve outcomes, and drive ongoing program optimization. Your work will directly impact quality of care, cost of care, and the member and provider experience, and you’ll help set the tone for how we operate – aligning accountability, setting clear goals and expectations, building effective business and clinical processes, leading executive reviews, and championing change in a dynamic environment.
