About this role

You run the business. You keep clients close, teams aligned, and the work moving.

  • Turn clinical data into clear, actionable direction for the team

  • Align strategy, creative, and execution across disciplines

  • Spot opportunities to grow the business (and actually act on them)

  • Use data to sharpen performance, not just report on it

  • Stay on top of scopes, budgets, and financial health

  • Requirements

  • 7+ years in account management at a pharma/healthcare agency

  • Deep understanding of MLR and how to work within it (without letting it water things down)

  • Experience leading complex projects and cross-functional teams

  • Strong communicator—clear, direct, and trusted by clients and teams alike

  • Comfortable in data-driven, performance-focused environments

  • Solid financial instincts—you know where the business stands
