About The Position
Optum Insight is improving the flow of health data and information to create a more connected system. We remove friction and drive alignment between care providers and payers, and ultimately consumers. Our deep expertise in the industry and innovative technology empower us to help organizations reduce costs while improving risk management, quality and revenue growth. Ready to help us deliver results that improve lives? Join us to start Caring. Connecting. Growing together. Optum Advisory is seeking a Director of Digital & Design to lead and scale our creative & experience design offering within the Payer Technology practice. This role is a unique opportunity to act as both a Creative Director and consulting leader, responsible for building a high-performing creative function while shaping client engagements and driving business growth. This individual will play a critical role in establishing creative services as a differentiated, in-house capability, elevating the quality and impact of experience design across engagements. In parallel, the Director will operate as a seller-doer, partnering with leadership to originate new opportunities, grow client relationships, and help convert pipeline into revenue. The ideal candidate brings a balance of strategic vision, creative leadership, and commercial acumen, with a proven ability to build teams, influence senior stakeholders, and deliver high-impact digital and service experiences in complex environments. While this is primarily a leadership and capability-building role, there will be times where this individual is expected to step in as a consultant - contributing directly to research, design, and key deliverables during critical phases of an engagement. You’ll enjoy the flexibility to work remotely from anywhere within the U.S. as you take on some tough challenges. For all hires in the Minneapolis or Washington, D.C. area, you will be required to work in the office a minimum of four days per week.
