How This Role Makes a Difference

The Director, Community Strategy & Operations is a senior strategic and operational leader within Community Engagement, responsible for turning community engagement strategy into scalable operating plans, execution systems, and measurable outcomes. This role sits at the intersection of public health strategy, field operations, partnerships, analytics, and cross-functional execution.

This person will help shape how Care Access builds trusted community partnerships, scales community-based health screening and clinical research education programs, improves participant access, and strengthens the operating system that supports Community Engagement across geographies. The Director will serve as a central integrator across Community Engagement, Study Operations, Logistics, Quality, Technology, Finance, People Operations, and other partner teams to ensure priorities are clear, decisions move, risks are surfaced, and execution is disciplined.

A strong candidate will be a high-caliber operator with structured problem-solving ability, and experience leading complex work in matrixed environments. A candidate with top-tier consulting experience and public health or healthcare delivery experience would be especially well suited.

How You'll Make An Impact

  • Own the design, implementation, and evolution of Community Engagement operating systems and execution frameworks, goals, and milestones; support annual and quarterly planning, resource allocation, budget inputs, and portfolio and strategy prioritization.
  • Lead cross-functional integration across Community Engagement and partner functions, aligning priorities, owners, timelines, risks, decisions, and handoffs across departments so key initiatives move forward without gaps.
  • Strengthen community partnership strategy and field enablement by supporting national and regional partnership models, partner prioritization, field playbooks, event-readiness tools, escalation pathways, and scalable community activation practices.
  • Lead development and execution of scalable governance and performance-management systems for priority workstreams. Establish and monitor performance targets for strategic Community Engagement initiatives and recommend corrective actions to improve outcomes.
  • Design and improve operating processes, playbooks, roles-and-responsibilities models, workflows, implementation plans, and change-management materials that improve Community Engagement scalability, quality, participant experience, and execution discipline.
  • Other Responsibilities: Prepare content for leadership meetings, business reviews, decision forums, operating reviews, and strategic planning sessions. Support cross-functional program design, relaunch efforts, market expansion, staffing models, partner activation models, and technology adoption tied to Community Engagement priorities. Facilitate recurring operating reviews and track decisions, risks, dependencies, and action items to completion across departments. Translate performance data, qualitative field feedback, and stakeholder input into recommendations and practical action plans. Partner with analytics and reporting teams to improve visibility into partnership pipeline, event execution, participant experience, screening outcomes, staffing, quality, and team performance. Identify process breakdowns, recurring risks, and operational bottlenecks; lead improvement efforts to address root causes. Contribute to system, workflow, and change-management efforts that improve clarity, accountability, communication, and execution.

The Expertise Required

  • Strong strategic planning, PMO, business operations, or management consulting experience in complex, matrixed environments.
  • Ability to act as a central integrator across functions, ensuring alignment, follow-through, and clear decision-making on shared priorities.
  • Strong public health, healthcare, clinical research, community health, health equity, or field-based program judgment.
  • Experience preparing executive presentations, briefing materials, operating reviews, business cases, and decision support for senior leaders.
  • Strong stakeholder management skills across executive leaders, operations teams, community-facing teams, external partners, and enabling functions.
  • Demonstrated experience with process mapping, playbook development, governance cadences, escalation routines, and accountability structures that improve execution.
  • Strong analytical skills, including KPI design, dashboard interpretation, funnel analysis, and translation of findings into practical action plans.
  • Comfort coordinating multiple workstreams simultaneously, including budgets, timelines, staffing, resourcing, risks, decisions, and dependencies.
  • Ability to build scalable operating systems, including workflows, templates, role clarity, reporting cadences, and performance-management routines.
  • Ability to lead through influence, not just authority, in fast-moving environments where roles, workflows, and priorities may need to be clarified or redesigned.
  • Fluency with Microsoft Suite, Business Intelligence platforms such as Power BI or Tableau, and project/reporting platforms such as MS Project, Smartsheet, ClickUp, Monday.com, Asana, or similar tools required. Comfort building agentic AI workflows.
