The Sr. Director, Strategy (Oncology & Multispecialty) is the first level of true initiative ownership, owning strategic initiatives end-to-end: framing the problem, designing the approach, leading the analytical team, developing the recommendation, and syndicating it with business leaders through to a decision. This is a senior-level individual contributor role. Initiatives span both commercial segments — provider-facing (GPO, specialty distribution, specialty pharmacy, alternate site infusion, practice management) and biopharma-facing (clinical trial site management, real-world evidence, clinicogenomic data) — and frequently sit at the intersection between the two, where the segment's most distinctive strategic questions live.

The Sr. Director leads cross-functional initiative teams and guides the work of Senior Managers, analysts, and business partners through structured problem solving, analytical direction, and high-quality feedback, while formal performance and development accountability remains with people leaders.

• Lead strategic initiatives end-to-end — from problem definition and workplan design through analysis, recommendation development, syndication, and hand-off to execution owners.
• Structure ambiguous, contested problems into clear hypotheses, workplans, and decision paths; insist on clear problem definition, logic, and evidence.

• Direct and quality-control the financial models built by the team; ensure every significant analysis identifies the assumptions that matter most and translates market shifts into quantified P&L implications.
• Analyze the financial and competitive consequences of regulatory and policy developments — 340B reform, Part B reimbursement policy, oncology care model evolution, biosimilar adoption, and FDA policy on RWE — within the scope of assigned initiatives.
• Contribute to scenario analysis of structural moves by value chain participants — practice consolidation, PBM vertical integration, health system expansion into community oncology, and technology platform entry among others.

Thought Partnership & Syndication

• Act as a credible thought partner to business and customer leaders within the scope of assigned initiatives; challenge assumptions constructively and surface inconvenient facts early.
