Enterprise Strategy Consultant at GuideWell in Jacksonville, FL

Job description

The Enterprise Strategy Consultant owns a full engagement module — a coherent problem area within a GuideWell strategy engagement — and runs it autonomously from hypothesis to recommendation. The Associate shapes the module’s hypotheses and analytical approach, picks the right methods unprompted, and synthesizes the work into a defensible recommendation that holds up to challenge. Associates also carry the day-to-day relationships with the business-unit stakeholders in their module, and are fluent in a domain — Medicare Advantage, commercial, pharmacy, or similar — to be credible with the subject-matter experts they work alongside. This is the level at which the toolkit becomes judgment: the priority is to be trusted with a whole problem area, and to prepare for Senior Associate, where scope widens to several modules and a small team. GuideWell is building an in-house Enterprise Strategy team — a strategy and internal-consulting group that works on the company’s most important questions — and we are hiring Associates to help form its foundation. As an Associate, you own a full module of an engagement: you frame the hypotheses, decide how the problem gets solved, direct the analysis, and carry it through to a recommendation you can defend to the business. You also own the day-to-day relationship with the stakeholders in your problem area — consulting-caliber ownership and a close-up view of a Fortune 500 health company, without the constant travel. You will thrive here if you would rather shape the approach than receive it, are comfortable being the person who owns a whole problem area, and want to go deep enough in a domain to be credible with the people who live in it every day. What makes GuideWell different: A not-for-profit, mission-driven company — one of the nation’s largest health insurers and a Fortune 500 organization — whose purpose is helping people and communities achieve better health. Core Blue Cross Blue Shield health plans in Florida (Florida Blue) and Puerto Rico (Triple-S), with deep ties to government-sponsored health care and the members who rely on it. A diversified portfolio that reaches well beyond insurance — including GuideWell Health care delivery (Sanitas Medical Centers, GuideWell Emergency Doctors, and Florida Health Care Plans), GuideWell Source, WebTPA, and Lucet — serving tens of millions of people across all 50 states, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. A policyholder-owned, long-term orientation and a strong balance sheet that let us invest in health-care-defining capabilities rather than chase quarterly results. Deep community trust and a genuine focus on impact in everything we do. Why join the team at this level: Own a whole problem, not a slice — a full module you run autonomously, with a recommendation that carries your name on it. Shape the thinking, not just the analysis — you set the hypotheses and pick the methods, and you are expected to have a point of view. Build durable domain expertise — go deep in Medicare Advantage, commercial, pharmacy, or another domain and become someone the business seeks out. Know exactly how to grow — clear, published levels and a competency model show what “great” looks like, all the way to Head of Enterprise Strategy. Or use the team as a launchpad into the business: mobility opens at this level, with optional 6–12 month secondments that carry a guaranteed path back, followed by sponsored placement. If you want to own a real problem area inside a Fortune 500 health company, and you want that work to matter, we would like to meet you. Key Requirements Own a Full Engagement Module Own a full engagement module — a coherent problem area — autonomously, from framing through to recommendation. Set and manage the module workplan, sequencing the analysis and making the trade-offs that keep it on time and on point. Direct the Analysts and Senior Analysts contributing to the module, and own the quality of everything that comes out of it. Escalate early and
