Director, Activations Strategy and Operations

We need to output HTML fragment with sections for headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate. We need to parse the posting. Let's extract content: Company description: "Iterative Health is a healthcare technology and services company powering the acceleration of clinical research to transform patient outcomes.We built a leading performance-driven network of 100+ sites across the US, Europe, India, and Australia, conducting research directly in the communities where care is delivered across gastrointestinal, hepatology, obesity, and cardiology. By combining deep clinical trial expertise with cutting-edge AI, we connect sponsors' scientific ambitions with high-performing research teams that expedite and expand access to novel therapeutics for patients in need. Today, Iterative Health is headquartered in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and New York City with 250+ employees world-wide." That's about the company; could be "About the role"? Actually "About the role" heading is for description of role. The posting includes description of role after that: "As Director of Activations Strategy & Operations, you will own the end-to-end activation operating model - diagnosing where time is being lost, designing the processes and systems that compress it, and driving cross-functional execution across Site Operations, Regulatory, Legal, and Commercial to make activation faster, more predictable, and more repeatable at scale. You’ll lead the strategy, processes, and cross-functional execution to achieve a 75 day goal from trial award to site activation needed to achieve that target consistently and sustain it as our portfolio grows.This is an ideal role for a strategic, operationally minded leader who wants to own a business-critical outcome, build scalable infrastructure, and operate at the intersection of strategy, process design, cross-functional alignment, and performance management." That's role description. Then "Where You'll Drive Impact" with subsections: Activation Performance Ownership, Process Design & Systems Thinking, Cross-Functional Alignment & Stakeholder Management, Team & Function Development. Those are responsibilities. Then "What You Bring to the Team" with bullet points (list) of requirements/qualifications/skills. Then "Preferred Qualifications" list. Then "How We Work" (culture) maybe not needed. Then "Benefits That Support You" list of benefits. Then "New York pay range: $160,000 USD - $220,000 USD" Then diversity statement and accommodation request (boilerplate? maybe we keep? It's EEO/equal-opportunity; we should remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. So remove that accommodation line? It's EEO related; we should remove. Thus we need sections: - About the role: maybe combine company description + role description? Usually "About the role" includes description of role and maybe company. We'll include both paragraphs. - Responsibilities: list of bullet points from Where You'll Drive Impact subsections. Could group each subsection as bullet. - Requirements: maybe the "What You Bring to the Team" list (7+ years etc). Those are requirements. - Qualifications: maybe "Preferred Qualifications" list. - Skills: maybe combine some skills from requirements? Could be separate but we might not need separate if content overlaps. The instruction: prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones. We could combine Requirements and Qualifications into one? But they ask to use headings for those categories if content exists. We have both required and preferred qualifications; we can have Requirements (mandatory) and Qualifications (preferred). Skills maybe not needed separately if covered. - Benefits: list from Benefits That Support You. - Pay: include the pay range. - Schedule: maybe hybrid work environment info: "Hybrid work environment with in-office collaboration two days per week in either our NYC, Boston or Southlake office". That's schedule info. Thus we will have sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must not include empty sections. Now format: Use

for each heading. Use

• for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use

  for prose. We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. Let's extract details precisely. About the role prose: combine company description and role description. Company description sentences: "Iterative Health is a healthcare technology and services company powering the acceleration of clinical research to transform patient outcomes.We built a leading performance-driven network of 100+ sites across the US, Europe, India, and Australia, conducting research directly in the communities where care is delivered across gastrointestinal, hepatology, obesity, and cardiology. By combining deep clinical trial expertise with cutting-edge AI, we connect sponsors' scientific ambitions with high-performing research teams that expedite and expand access to novel therapeutics for patients in need. Today, Iterative Health is headquartered in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and New York City with 250+ employees world-wide." Note missing spaces after periods? We'll keep as is but could add space for readability but must preserve info; adding spaces is okay as not altering meaning. We'll keep original but maybe add a space after periods for readability; it's not changing content. Safer to keep exactly? The instruction: preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. Adding spaces is not inventing info; it's fine. We'll keep as is but maybe add a space after each period for readability. Then role description: "As Director of Activations Strategy & Operations, you will own the end-to-end activation operating model - diagnosing where time is being lost, designing the processes and systems that compress it, and driving cross-functional execution across Site Operations, Regulatory, Legal, and Commercial to make activation faster, more predictable, and more repeatable at scale. You’ll lead the strategy, processes, and cross-functional execution to achieve a 75 day goal from trial award to site activation needed to achieve that target consistently and sustain it as our portfolio grows.This is an ideal role for a strategic, operationally minded leader who wants to own a business-critical outcome, build scalable infrastructure, and operate at the intersection of strategy, process design, cross-functional alignment, and performance management." Note missing space after period before "This". We'll add space. Combine into one

  maybe two paragraphs? Could be one

  with both. We'll keep as one

  containing both. Now Responsibilities: list from Where You'll Drive Impact. Subsections: Activation Performance Ownership: - Own the end-to-end activation performance framework: setting targets, tracking milestones, and holding the function accountable to the 75-day activation goal. - Monitor performance against targets, surface risks early, and lead the response before delays compound. - Lead portfolio and site sequencing decisions that maximize revenue opportunity across the activation pipeline. Process Design & Systems Thinking: - Diagnose where time is being lost across the activation lifecycle — regulatory, legal, site readiness, study startup — and identify the highest-leverage opportunities to compress timelines. - Design and implement scalable, repeatable activation processes that reduce variability and make performance predictable across a growing portfolio of trials and sites. - Develop and maintain activation playbooks that can be operationalized across new trials, new sites, and new therapeutic areas. - Work with Product and Technology to build the systems and tooling that give leadership and operational teams real-time visibility into activation status, milestone risk, and portfolio sequencing. Cross-Functional Alignment & Stakeholder Management: - Define roles, responsibilities, and handoffs across the functions involved in activation — ensuring clarity on ownership and accountability at every stage. - Partner with Site Operations, Regulatory, Legal, Commercial, and Study Success to align on activation priorities and resolve cross-functional bottlenecks. - Develop creative approaches to vendor partnerships that accelerate activation timelines — thinking beyond traditional procurement toward relationships that are flexible, performance-oriented, and give IH a competitive advantage. Team & Function Development: - Build and develop the activations team as the function scales. - Establish the operating cadence, reporting structures, and accountability mechanisms that enable the team to perform consistently as volume grows. We need to preserve all details exactly. Use bullet list

  • for each bullet. Now Requirements: from "What You Bring to the Team". Let's extract each bullet: - 7+ years in strategy and operations, management consulting, or a related function — with a track record of designing and implementing operational systems that improve efficiency and scale. - Demonstrated ability to diagnose process inefficiencies, design solutions, and drive cross-functional execution in a complex, multi-stakeholder environment. - Strong systems thinking — you see how the pieces fit together and build processes that hold up as volume grows. - Experience defining roles, responsibilities, and operating models across functions; comfortable having the accountability conversation and driving alignment. - High ownership mindset with clear accountability for outcomes. - Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills — able to influence without authority across legal, regulatory, clinical, and commercial functions. - Experience with vendor identification, evaluation, and management in an operational context; comfortable building the framework for how a company selects and works with external partners. - Comfortable operating in a fast-moving, ambiguous environment where the playbook is still being written. We'll keep as list. Now Qualifications: "Preferred Qualifications" list: - Experience in healthcare, clinical research, or a regulated industry where process design carries compliance implications. - Experience building or managing small teams. - Strong analytical instincts — able to use data to diagnose problems and measure the impact of process changes. - Proficiency in Google Workspace and/or Microsoft Office tools (Excel, Word, Power Note the last line truncated: "PowerHow We Work". Actually original: "Proficiency in Google Workspace and/or Microsoft Office tools (Excel, Word, PowerHow We Work". It seems cut off; likely "PowerPoint". We'll infer "PowerPoint". But we must not invent detail. The text ends abruptly; we should preserve as given? The posting truncated due to formatting. We have: "Proficiency in Google Workspace and/or Microsoft Office tools (Excel, Word, PowerHow We Work". That seems like a mistake; but we must preserve ALL substantive information; we cannot invent "PowerPoint". We'll keep the text as is: "(Excel, Word, PowerHow We Work". That seems weird but it's what we have. However maybe it's a formatting error where "Power" then newline then "How We Work". Actually the original snippet: "Proficiency in Google Workspace and/or Microsoft Office tools (Excel, Word, PowerHow We Work". Likely they meant "PowerPoint" then newline "How We Work". Since we cannot guess, we should keep the exact text as appears: "Proficiency in Google Workspace and/or Microsoft Office tools (Excel, Word, PowerHow We Work". But that seems nonsensical. However we must not invent. We'll keep as given. Now Benefits: list from "Benefits That Support You". Let's extract each bullet: - Hybrid work environment with in-office collaboration two days per week in either our NYC, Boston or Southlake office - Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage, with up to 80% of premiums covered by Iterative Health - Mental health and wellness support through Spring Health - Health HSA or FSA options, and commuter FSA contributions supported by Iterative Health - Unlimited PTO, 12 company holidays, and a company-wide shutdown between Christmas and New Years - 401(k) program with a company match of up to 3% (up to $3,000 annually) - Weekly in-office lunch benefit every Tuesday - 100% company-paid short-term and long-term disability coverage - Annual wellness and professional development stipend to support your health and growth - And more! We'll keep as list. Pay: "New York pay range: $160,000 USD - $220,000 USD". We'll put in

    . Schedule: The hybrid work environment info is also in Benefits; but schedule could be separate. However we already have hybrid work environment in Benefits. The schedule section could be about work schedule: maybe "Hybrid work environment
