The Corporate Strategy team was established in 2021 to partner directly with the Executive Leadership Team in advancing Shields' strategic priorities, including growth initiatives, operational improvement efforts, business development opportunities, and new business innovation. Team members gain exposure across all aspects of the organization and are uniquely positioned to develop into operational or functional leaders or to lead new growth initiatives across the business.

The Corporate Strategy team works closely with Strategic Operations, with a particular focus on supporting critical internal functions, strategic partnerships, and new product and service launches.

 

This role serves as a strategic and operational partner to the Centralized Operations leadership team, helping drive performance across one of the largest and most impactful functions within the organization.

This is a unique opportunity for top-performing professionals from investment banking, private equity, management consulting, corporate development, or strategic finance backgrounds who are looking to transition into an operating role. Rather than advising from the sidelines, you'll work directly with executive and operational leaders to influence strategy, drive execution, and deliver measurable business results.

With broad exposure to enterprise strategy, operational excellence, growth initiatives, and executive decision-making, this role provides an accelerated path to leadership while offering the opportunity to make a meaningful impact within a rapidly growing healthcare organization.
