Humana, a Fortune 50 Healthcare Company

Humana is a publicly traded, Fortune 50 healthcare company with a long history of successful innovation and reinvention. It has transformed itself from the largest US nursing home company in the 60’s, to the largest US hospital corporation in the 80’s, to a leading health benefits company beginning in the 90’s. Today, Humana is a leader in consumer-focused health solutions and is one of the largest health benefits organizations in the country.

The Healthcare Strategy team supports Humana’s Insurance segment. This segment, Humana’s largest, comprises the majority of the company’s total revenue and earnings. Team members partner with senior leaders of the business unit, and more broadly with leaders throughout the enterprise, as they deliver strategy projects addressing some of the businesses’ most important opportunities and challenges. These high-profile strategy projects place the team at the forefront of helping to define the future of Humana’s largest businesses.

Humana is seeking a team member, with prior management consulting experience or professional experience leveraging core consulting skills, to support delivering some of the Insurance segment’s highest priority projects and initiatives, with an emphasis on Medicare Advantage strategy development. As a Senior Strategy Advancement Professional, you will deconstruct issues and challenges, perform targeted research and analysis, support core strategy operational work, and craft sound, logical solutions and recommendations.

You will also shape implementation considerations, and work with business owners as appropriate to transition analysis into execution. While deep diving into key areas, you will also have a bird’s-eye view of the business unit’s overall strategy. Your role be instrumental in synthesizing the strategic and operational choices being made across the business unit into coherent plans to drive growth and profitability, while simultaneously improving the lives and health of Humana’s members.

While doing so, you will have the opportunity to collaborate with fellow team members, subject matter experts, members of Humana’s executive Management Team, and corporate, functional, and business unit leaders.

Recent example projects include assessing the performance of strategic initiatives and business areas, evolving key facets of the Medicare Advantage growth strategy, leading the development of the annual Medicare Advantage strategic plan, monitoring segment-wide operational performance, and refreshing the strategy for Humana’s sales organization.
