Job description
Client Summary:
Healthcare technology company operating a virtual platform that connects providers with cash-pay, evidence-based medical solutions
Combines a proprietary transaction platform with fulfillment, shipping, and patient support services in a seamless end-to-end model
Partners with FDA-registered manufacturing facilities and accredited pharmacies to ensure product quality and regulatory compliance
Helps provider organizations expand their service offerings and build practice revenue while maintaining continuity of care for patients
Positioned at the intersection of digital health, compounding pharmacy, and direct-pay care delivery with a strong emphasis on compliance and quality
Position Responsibilities:
Full P&L ownership of the operations team, which serves as the revenue engine of the business; accountable for improving the rate of order fulfillment and driving first fills and refills across the patient base
Contact center leadership: multi-omnichannel communication including phone, electronic, and unified communication channels; push AI-enabled call scoring, workforce analytics, and patient journey intelligence to the next level; unify currently disparate electronic communication channels
Fulfillment leadership: oversee fulfillment operations out of the St. Louis headquarters and a network of pharmacy partners; develop current tactical managers into true operational and people leaders
Patient journey optimization: own the patient experience from prescription at the doctor's office through delivery, adherence, and refills; build strategies that improve engagement and reduce drop-off across the patient lifecycle
Supply chain and logistics: build best-in-class inventory management, just-in-time logistics, and fulfillment processes; plan for and lead the transition to multi-location fulfillment as the company scales
Technology and platform development: collaborate on building a patient-facing application for education and engagement; leverage AI and modern tooling to enhance dynamic patient relationship management
Cross-functional partnership: work closely with the sales team and sales operations to ensure the patient journey starts effectively at the point of prescription
Strategic planning: define what the operations function will look like in 2027 and 2028; present and execute a forward-looking operational vision that connects to company-wide growth strategy
Experience & Skills:
Required Experience and Qualifications:
Executive-level operations leadership experience with full P&L ownership of a contact center and fulfillment function; beyond senior staff level, with demonstrated executive accountability for results
Multi-omnichannel contact center experience: you have built, led, or significantly transformed a patient-facing or consumer-facing contact center at scale, with an understanding of how AI, workforce analytics, and modern tooling can elevate performance
Fulfillment and supply chain fluency: experience managing fulfillment operations, inventory, and logistics in a healthcare, specialty pharmacy, e-commerce, or comparable environment
Tech-forward orientation: experience leveraging AI and technology to improve customer or patient journeys; experience building or contributing to patient-facing applications is a strong plus
Scaling experience: you have been through a growth phase where operations needed to be elevated beyond their current structure and you have the playbook to do it again
E-commerce or marketplace background is a meaningful differentiator; candidates who have built and run fulfillment and customer experience operations at companies like Amazon, DoorDash, or comparable platforms bring a valued perspective
Healthcare, specialty pharmacy, or medication adherence experience is preferred but not required; the ability to quickly understand the patient journey and the dynamics of a prescription-based business is essential
Presence: willingness to be in the St. Louis headquarters on a regular basis; this role requires meaningful on-site engagement with the operations team
Compensation $250k, Health Insurance, 401k, Paid Vacation
