Humana is a Fortune 60 market leader in integrated healthcare whose dream is to help people achieve lifelong well-being. As a company focused on the health and well-being of the people we serve, Humana starts from within, and is committed to providing progressive benefits that advance the employment experience and vitality of the associate community. Through offerings anchored in a whole-person view of human well-being, Humana embraces a focus on stimulating positive individual and population changes while nurturing a sense of security, enabling people to live life fully and be their most productive.

Against that backdrop, Humana is building a best-in-class Consumer Marketing organization to drive profitable growth across diverse business lines. We are seeking a talented executive to lead the marketing organization for our Home Solutions segment, which is bringing care to the patient's home across the full spectrum of acuity from Primary Care relationships to Hospital encounters.

Our Home Solutions organization is in the midst of a significant growth strategy that requires not only acquisition of new customers and patients but also the engagement and retention of current ones. The suite of Home Solutions assets (which is comprised of 7 unique companies and offerings) is continuing to refine through partnerships, acquisition and innovation, and has the opportunity to position the company uniquely in service of seniors living with chronic conditions. This will require developing new categories and products, expanding into new customer segments, deploying critical capabilities to win with those segments and redefining the care experience. This strategic shift will add considerable complexity to the marketing function supporting the segment and strong marketing leadership will be key to the successful execution of the strategy.

The AVP, Home Solutions Marketing will oversee portfolio management and marketing strategy for the segment, and will build the marketing team to support the strategic business needs. This individual will have oversight of annual marketing plans as well as longer-term marketing capability roadmaps in close collaboration with business partners. Identifying emerging market trends and bringing innovative solutions to market will be required to help this segment and Humana become a leader in the industry. Partnering with JVs, acquired groups, and aligned partners will require managing complex brand relationships and market approaches that will be unique by partner, but must be additive in power for Humana. The AVP will be expected to develop a broad understanding of the business and how it interacts in the plan space, as well drive marketing strategies that meet business challenges and that also position Humana as a thought leader in this space.

Location is open, but Louisville, KY is preferred. Relocation assistance to Louisville, Kentucky will be provided.
