Senior Director – IT M&A Integration & Digital Transformation

About this role

Huron helps its clients drive growth, enhance performance and sustain leadership in the markets they serve. We help healthcare organizations build innovation capabilities and accelerate key growth initiatives, enabling organizations to own the future, instead of being disrupted by it. Together, we empower clients to create sustainable growth, optimize internal processes and deliver better consumer outcomes.

Health systems, hospitals and medical clinics are under immense pressure to improve clinical outcomes and reduce the cost of providing patient care. Investing in new partnerships, clinical services and technology is not enough to create meaningful and substantive change. To succeed long-term, healthcare organizations must empower leaders, clinicians, employees, affiliates and communities to build cultures that foster innovation to achieve the best outcomes for patients.

Joining the Huron team means you’ll help our clients evolve and adapt to the rapidly changing healthcare environment and optimize existing business operations, improve clinical outcomes, create a more consumer-centric healthcare experience, and drive physician, patient and employee engagement across the enterprise.

Join our team as the expert you are now and create your future.

At Huron, Senior Directors lead with expertise and collaboration, partnering with Huron and client leaders to create sustainable solutions that drive meaningful results. As a member of our Healthcare Digital Transformation (HDTx) team, you will operate across two high-priority mandates: leading IT integration on complex M&A transactions and delivering digital transformation advisory and implementation engagements for healthcare provider clients alongside those transactions.

In the M&A context, this leader owns end-to-end IT integration delivery, from due diligence and Day 1 readiness through post-close integration, TSA exit, and value realization. In the digital context, you will serve as a trusted advisor to C-level executives and senior IT leaders, guiding them through complex clinical, operational, and financial transformation initiatives powered by EHR, ERP, AI, automation, and advanced analytics.

You will foster a supportive, inclusive environment, empower teams, and create a workplace where diverse perspectives are valued. If you are passionate about driving impactful solutions at the intersection of M&A and digital transformation and believe in the power of collaboration, Huron offers a rewarding path forward.
