This back-fill role will maintain continuity for core Patient Financial Services responsibilities, including day-to-day oversight of program operations, issue resolution, vendor management routines, budget awareness, and executional support for affordability initiatives across brands and therapeutic areas.

As a back-fill role, the Associate Director will provide continuity for existing responsibilities while partnering across the organization to sustain program performance and support future capability improvements.

This individual will oversee and continuously improve patient financial support processes, including copay and affordability program operations, vendor coordination, operational issue management, field and hub support needs, and program health monitoring. The role requires strong partnership with therapeutic area teams, finance, customer operations, legal, HCC, procurement, data/analytics partners, and external vendors to ensure programs are operating effectively and in alignment with business and compliance expectations.

The Associate Director will be expected to manage multiple priorities, translate operational data into actionable insights, support financial governance routines, and help resolve escalations that may impact patient access, provider experience, vendor performance, or program execution.
