About The Position

The Assistant Vice President (AVP) of Enterprise Transformation partners with organizational leaders to shape, prioritize, and execute the organization’s most consequential strategic, operational, and business model initiatives. The AVP turns enterprise priorities into integrated transformation roadmaps and rigorous business cases that reflect executive decisions and deliver measurable financial, operational, clinical, and organizational outcomes. This leader applies sophisticated consulting disciplines, analytical and financial acumen, and executive influence across a complex, matrixed healthcare organization.

The AVP leads a portfolio of high-priority initiatives, ensuring strategic alignment, sound analysis, disciplined governance, and sustained value. The role guides opportunities from identification and hypothesis development through solution design, implementation, benefit realization, and transition to business ownership. It also identifies and incubates opportunities to strengthen the operating model, improve performance, enhance capabilities, and create long-term enterprise value.

Serving as a trusted advisor to executives, the AVP leads multidisciplinary teams, develops transformation professionals, and establishes repeatable methods that increase the organization’s capacity to manage change. Success requires independent work amid ambiguity, constructive challenge of assumptions, synthesis of complex information, and clear recommendations that support timely executive action. The position works with internal co-workers and external customers, clients, patients, contractors, and vendors, and involves access to sensitive or confidential information. The role requires a comprehensive understanding of healthcare regulatory and compliance standards, such as HIPAA.
