Job Description Summary
LI-Hybrid
The Community Health unit strives to improve access, health equity and patient outcomes in a sustainable way in countries around the world. The focus of the unit is to reach underserved patient populations whose needs are not addressed through traditional healthcare delivery models.
The Community Health Lead develops and executes innovative Community Health models that address system-level barriers to care, improve access to quality healthcare and drive better health outcomes in underserved populations. The role translates complex healthcare challenges into practical, scalable and sustainable solutions, moving seamlessly from strategy to implementation.
Success requires a combination of healthcare system expertise, stakeholder engagement, strategic thinking and execution excellence to create lasting value for patients, health systems and Novartis' mission to reimagine medicine.
This is not a traditional project management or coordination role. Success requires the ability to independently analyze healthcare system challenges, shape intervention models,



navigate ambiguity and drive implementation across multiple stakeholders with limited direct authority.
