Resumen
Today, Cardiovascular disease is the #1 cause of mortality in the US, responsible for ~1 in 5 deaths and projected to exceed $1.1 trillion in annual direct health care cost and lost productivity by 2035. By identifying risk factors and taking action early, we could prevent 80% of heart attacks, strokes, and early deaths from cardiovascular disease. Yet, a system built to treat sickness instead of preventing it has kept us from making progress.
This is why we, as a long-time leader in cardiovascular health, have made a commitment to change this. We want to ignite a revolution in US healthcare – a movement that will make prevention of cardiovascular dis-ease the new gold standard. What if the last person to die of heart disease has already been born? We believe it is in our power to make this happen.
Reporting into the Head of Cardiovascular Disease Prevention, this role will be part of the founding team of a new business unit we have created, which will drive concrete, innovative initiatives to bring about ecosystem-wide change. We are looking for innovative minds and entrepreneurial spirits who are not afraid to go after a bold ambition and push the boundaries of the status quo. If you are comfortable with ambiguity and you thrive when going after a big challenge, then this opportunity is for you.
The Director, Employer Platforms, will own the strategy, the design and the execution of employer-led CV prevention programs in partnership with outside execution partners. You will leverage large employers as a core channel to achieve for preventive care delivery through the design of innovative programs that create awareness of cardiovascular health among employees, help them identify and understand their cardiovascular risk factors, and drive behavior change to improve their outcomes and increase their healthy lifespan.
