Responsibilities
- Own a portfolio of large, complex PBM partnerships with significant revenue impact —managing the full account lifecycle from contract execution through renewal, expansion, and executive relationship development
- Develop and execute multi-year account plans that align partner goals with Interra revenue objectives, identifying whitespace opportunities across new use cases, populations, and distribution channels
- Lead high-stakes negotiations, QBRs, and strategic reviews independently — presenting to C-suite and VP-level stakeholders with confidence, credibility, and minimal reliance on internal escalation
- Build and maintain relationships across multiple levels of each PBM organization —spanning clinical, operations, product, commercial, and legal — while identifying and cultivating executive sponsors who can champion Interra's initiatives internally
- Manage complex contract lifecycles including amendments, SOWs, renewals, and multi-party agreements, coordinating cross-functional teams (Legal, Product, Engineering, Implementation) to deliver on partner commitments
- Build business cases and financial models to support pricing negotiations, renewal strategy, and upsell/cross-sell opportunities; maintain disciplined pipeline and forecast management with accurate revenue timing and risk visibility
- Monitor and translate market trends, competitive dynamics, and regulatory developments — including CMS mandates, NCPDP standards, and transparency requirements — into actionable account strategy and internal insights for leadership
- Actively leverage AI tools to accelerate account planning, research, communication, and reporting — contributing to Interra's broader AI-first commercial motion
Skills
- Bachelor's degree required; advanced degree a plus
- 7+ years of experience in strategic account management, partnerships, or commercial roles — with a meaningful portion in or selling to the PBM, health plan, or pharmacy benefit ecosystem
- Proven track record managing large, complex PBM or health plan partnerships with multimillion-dollar revenue impact; direct experience with organizations such as Evernorth, Optum, CVS Caremark, Prime, Humana, or MedImpact strongly preferred
- Deep domain knowledge of the PBM landscape: formulary management, prior authorization, pharmacy benefit design, RTPB, cost and coverage transparency, coupon/copay programs, and patient affordability solutions
- Fluency in EHR distribution models, connectivity standards, and how prescriber workflows drive utilization — with an understanding of how Interra's clinical decision support capabilities fit into that ecosystem
- Demonstrated ability to lead contract negotiations and executive presentations without over-reliance on internal support; skilled at navigating matrixed organizations where influence must be earned across functions
- Strong commercial acumen: experience building business cases, financial models, and pricing analyses to support renewals and expansion opportunities
- Exceptional executive communication skills — written and verbal — with the ability to simplify complex concepts for senior audiences and read the room in politically sensitive conversations
- Ownership mentality: you treat your book of business like a P&L, operate with a bias toward action, and bring cross-functional teams along without acting as a lone wolf
- Recognized expert in PBM economics, pharmacy benefit design, and healthcare commercial strategy. Applies advanced domain knowledge independently to complex, high-stakes partnership situations — including novel contract structures, competitive dynamics, and regulatory shifts — without requiring guidance
- Actively uses AI tools to sharpen account intelligence and accelerate commercial execution
- Navigates complex, multi-stakeholder partnership environments with independent judgment — determining approach on ambiguous situations, anticipating risk before it surfaces, and developing creative commercial solutions that balance partner needs with Interra's strategic and revenue objectives
- Builds trusted, multi-threaded relationships across PBM organizations at the executive level, while orchestrating internal cross-functional teams to deliver on partner commitments
- Recognized internally as the authority on the PBM book of business; brings insights and market intelligence to leadership that shape commercial strategy beyond their own accounts
