About the role
Confidential Search: We're partnering with a growing healthcare organization seeking a senior actuarial leader to help shape and scale innovative value-based care programs.

Key responsibilities:
- Lead the design, pricing, risk assessment, and negotiation of value-based care programs
- Develop financial models and strategies that demonstrate clinical and economic value
- Partner closely with clinical, operational, finance, provider network, and growth leaders
- Lead conversations and negotiations with health plans, including actuarial, sales, and business stakeholders
- Evaluate program performance, utilization, cost trends, reserves, accruals, and financial risk
- Build and lead the Medical Economics function
- Translate complex actuarial analysis into actionable business and growth strategies
- Help shape the organization's broader value-based care strategy and market expansion
Ideal background:
- FSA and MAAA15+ years of progressive actuarial and managed care experience
- Deep, hands-on experience designing and managing value-based care reimbursement and risk models
- Strong executive presence and ability to operate as a strategic leader with actuarial expertise
- Experience working across clinical, provider, operational, financial, and commercial teams
- Exposure to musculoskeletal care, orthopedic bundles, CJR, BPCI Advanced, TEAM, or employer-focused MSK programs is highly valuable
- Experience with digital health outcomes, causal inference, health economics, or advanced predictive analytics is a plus
- Comfortable operating in a fast-paced, high-growth environment
Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
