Innovation Strategy Associate

Employers play a vital role in the health and well-being of their people, funding a significant portion of healthcare spending in the U.S. Costs continue to rise while outcomes and experiences lag, and employees struggle to navigate a maze of disconnected digital tools, providers, and benefits.

Entrepreneurial-minded candidates will find a challenging environment, a supportive team, and an opportunity to develop a broad skillset while affecting meaningful change in health care.
