Job description

Huron helps its clients drive growth, enhance performance and sustain leadership in the markets they serve. We help healthcare organizations build innovation capabilities and accelerate key growth initiatives, enabling organizations to own the future, instead of being disrupted by it. Together, we empower clients to create sustainable growth, optimize internal processes and deliver better consumer outcomes.

Health systems, hospitals and medical clinics are under immense pressure to improve clinical outcomes and reduce the cost of providing patient care. Investing in new partnerships, clinical services and technology is not enough to create meaningful and substantive change. To succeed long-term, healthcare organizations must empower leaders, clinicians, employees, affiliates and communities to build cultures that foster innovation to achieve the best outcomes for patients.

Joining the Huron team means you’ll help our clients evolve and adapt to the rapidly changing healthcare environment and optimize existing business operations, improve clinical outcomes, create a more consumer-centric healthcare experience, and drive physician, patient and employee engagement across the enterprise.

Join our team as the expert you are now and create your future.

At Huron, Directors epitomize the pinnacle of professionalism and expertise. They collaborate seamlessly with Huron and client senior leaders to design and implement complex, sustainable solutions that consistently exceed engagement objectives. Their projects foster enduring client relationships, driving profound benefits such as networking, ongoing business development, and sales opportunities.

Directors' talents and leadership qualities ignite passion and trust in clients, junior staff, and Huron management. If you have the ability to lead teams, create customized solutions, and communicate masterfully at every level, you can leave an indelible mark on the future of consulting.
