Who We are
FTI Consulting is the world’s leading expert-driven consulting firm. Our experts serve as the trusted advisor to Fortune 500 companies and the world’s leading law and private equity firms when facing their greatest opportunities and challenges. Our strong performance and continued success are a direct reflection of the ambition, energy, and commitment of our talented professionals to make a positive impact for our clients and communities.
About the Role
The Center for Healthcare Economics and Policy (“Center”) is a business unit of the Economics Practice. The Center applies cutting-edge economics and quantitative methods to assist clients in developing and implementing market-based solutions across the spectrum of healthcare activity. Our analyses utilize economic modelling and simulation applied to real-world data to predict future demand for services to provide organizations insights into how to maintain quality, improve health outcomes and reduce costs, as well as to properly deploy constrained resources. Our advanced capabilities and extensive data sets can address effects of major policy, regulatory, or significant and disruptive changes. We provide predictive modeling capable of evaluating complex “what- if” scenarios for both public and private stakeholders.
The Center’s analytic domains include M&A, antitrust, regulatory reviews, market insight, value-based arrangements, cross-stakeholder and community-level analysis including economic impact of poor health, population health, value assessment, quantification of patient-centered preferences and digital health.
What You’ll Do
The Director will be responsible for executing projects start to finish including designing approaches to address clients’ questions, managing relationships, and communicating results in the form of written reports and oral presentations. The position involves working in small teams to provide healthcare-related and applied microeconomics analytics to clients, as well as overseeing/directing statistical and empirical analysis using large datasets. This is an opportunity to work and grow in a dynamic environment, contributing to projects that help shape the healthcare environment. The position is an integral part of the Center, involved in the development of its core initiatives and client work as well as managing and mentoring junior staff.
