Translate ambiguous payer challenges into structured, data-driven solutions. Guide and oversee analysts in execution, including data analysis, modeling, and visualization, while ensuring rigor and quality. Maintain sufficient technical depth to review code, validate outputs, and problem-solve alongside the team when needed. Develop clear, compelling narratives and presentations that connect analytics to business value and operational impact. Lead cross-functional collaboration across consulting and analytics teams to deliver integrated solutions. Identify opportunities to innovate and scale analytics capabilities, particularly in payer-focused use cases. Mentor and develop junior team members, providing coaching across both technical and professional skills. Own engagement operations, including work planning, status tracking, and overall delivery accountability.
