Senior Consultant, Healthcare Strategy & Transformation

What You Will Do

• Lead defined workstreams within healthcare strategy and transformation engagements, owning the day-to-day execution, analytic outputs, and storyline development to ensure high-quality, on-time delivery with minimal oversight.
• Translate ambiguous client needs into structured problem solving: frame the problem, develop hypotheses, design the workplan, and drive execution (including task planning, analysis, synthesis, and risk/issue escalation).
• Apply commercial payer/provider expertise to federal health challenges, bringing a pragmatic perspective on how reimbursement, payment structures, and policy-driven incentives influence operations, provider behavior, and performance outcomes.
• Perform and guide analysis to insight: collect/clean data, conduct quantitative and qualitative analyses, and turn findings into decision-ready implications (e.g., trend insights, root cause drivers, opportunity sizing, and prioritization).
• Develop executive-ready deliverables (PowerPoint and brief written products) that clearly communicate "so what" insights—using strong narrative structure, exhibits, and concise recommendations.
• Support operational and performance transformation by mapping current state, identifying pain points, designing target-state processes/operating models, and defining governance and metrics (including performance measurement and reporting approaches).
• Facilitate stakeholder engagement: plan and lead working sessions, interviews, and workshops; synthesize inputs; and manage workstream communications with client and internal stakeholders.
• Coach and mentor junior staff through thoughtful delegation, quality review, and actionable feedback, raising the bar on analytical rigor and client-ready communication.
• Contribute to internal capability building (templates, accelerators, thought leadership) and, as needed, support proposals/capture efforts across the firm.

What You Will Need

• Bachelor's degree.
• 3+ years of experience in consulting and/or healthcare industry roles.
• Demonstrated experience in healthcare strategy and/or transformation, with exposure to payer/provider, operating models, or performance improvement.
• Strong understanding of commercial payer/provider environments, including reimbursement/payment fundamentals and how policy and payment structures affect outcomes.
• Strong analytical skills and comfort working with data; advanced Excel proficiency required.
• Proven ability to lead workstreams, build client-ready deliverables, and communicate effectively (written and verbal).
• Ability to obtain a Public Trust clearance (i.e. US Citizenship required).
• Ability to travel as needed (up to 25%).

What Would Be Nice To Have

• Depth in commercial payer functions (e.g., claims/payment operations, payment policy, network strategy, utilization management, value-based care, risk adjustment, payment integrity/FWA).
• Provider-side strategy/ops experience (e.g., revenue cycle, access, care coordination, clinical operations, service line strategy).
• Experience supporting federal health programs (VA strongly preferred), including working in complex stakeholder environments and navigating policy-informed delivery contexts.
• Experience with analytics-enabled transformation (dashboards/scorecards, governance, and adoption).
• MBA/MHA/MPH or other relevant advanced degree.
