Position Summary

We are seeking a VP of Giftcare to serve as the executive owner of Gifthealth’s GLP-1 telehealth program. Giftcare is one of Gifthealth’s largest and highest-visibility programs, and this leader will own its strategy, scale, and day-to-day performance following launch, including the clinical partnership with SteadyMD, the end-to-end patient journey, and the operational metrics that determine whether patients start and stay on treatment.

? Clinical Partnership Ownership: Serve as the primary owner of the clinical partnership with SteadyMD and the broader prescriber network, managing performance, executive-level escalations, and a joint operating cadence with partner leadership.

? End-to-End Patient Journey Ownership: Own the end-to-end patient journey, from intake through the prescription journey to ongoing adherence, ensuring a seamless and compliant experience at every step.

? Operational Performance & Metrics: Define, track, and continuously improve the operational metrics that determine whether patients start and stay on treatment, reporting program health directly to executive leadership.

? Compliance Oversight: Ensure compliance with state-specific telehealth regulations and manage prior authorization (PA) workflows across a scaling program footprint.

? Team Building & Leadership: Build, lead, and develop the Giftcare team as the program scales, hiring and developing managers and directors to own day-to-day execution.

? Cross-Functional & Executive Alignment: Partner cross-functionally with product, clinical, compliance, and customer support leadership to resolve operational issues and improve the patient experience; represent Giftcare in executive forums and align it with company-wide strategic priorities.

? Reporting & Executive Communication: Report on program performance, risks, and opportunities directly to Gifthealth’s senior leadership team.

? Licensure/Certification: Not required. Familiarity with healthcare regulatory and compliance frameworks is preferred.

? Experience: 10+ years of experience in healthcare operations, digital health, or telehealth, including significant experience managing a clinical vendor or provider group relationship (not just a software vendor), and 4+ years in a VP, senior director, or

equivalent executive leadership role, ideally scaling a high-growth program or business line.

 Skills

? Demonstrated experience managing a clinical vendor or provider group relationship, not just a software vendor.

? Strong working knowledge of state telehealth regulations and prior authorization (PA) workflows.

? Comfort operating in a compliance-driven healthcare environment.

? Proven ability to build and lead teams through significant growth, and to drive performance across distributed or cross-functional groups.

? Strong understanding of the GLP-1 prescription journey or specialty pharmacy operations. (Preferred, not required.)

? Excellent executive-level leadership, communication, and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to represent the program credibly with senior internal and external audiences.

? Strong relationship-management instincts with external clinical partners.

? Patient-centric mindset, genuinely invested in helping people start and stay on treatment.

? Regular meetings with SteadyMD’s clinical and operations teams, and with Gifthealth’s product, compliance, and customer experience teams, to ensure alignment.
