Are you a strategic leader passionate about pharmacy operations and complex compliance environments? This organization is seeking a Program Director to lead the Enterprise 340B Program. In this highly visible role, you will oversee 9 entities within a large health system, owning the operational, compliance, and financial health of the 340B program. You will lead a dynamic, evolving team of 15 employees, driving the strategy, optimization, and continuous improvement of pharmacy business services.

Leadership & Strategy

• Operational Oversight: Manage day-to-day operations for 340B clinic-administered medications, split-billing software, and pharmacy fulfillments across the enterprise
• Team Management: Direct a 15-person team, including hiring, onboarding, mentorship, and performance evaluation
• Strategic Planning: Collaborate with pharmacy leadership to develop and execute business plans that leverage 340B savings to expand care for underserved populations
• Financial Stewardship: Prepare budgets, manage drug spend analysis, forecast financial impacts, and monitor program savings

Compliance & Audit Governance

• Regulatory Expert: Serve as the institutional authority on HRSA/OPA guidelines, Medicaid regulations, and federal compliance
• Audit Readiness: Lead internal and external audits, serve as the primary audit coordinator, and manage remediation efforts to ensure 100% compliance
• Program Integrity: Oversee annual HRSA recertification, maintain database accuracy, and ensure all child sites meet registration requirements

Operational Excellence & Innovation

• System Optimization: Champion the implementation of automation tools (RPA) and software to increase efficiency and compliance
• Contract Management: Evaluate and manage relationships with contracted pharmacies, including data setup, billing services, and contract language
• Process Improvement: Monitor points of service for new 340B opportunities and drive continuous improvement initiatives to eliminate operational barriers

Stakeholder Partnership

• Education & Training: Develop competency materials and conduct ongoing training to keep all staff aligned with program standards
• Communication: Act as the primary liaison for 340B inquiries, presenting key metrics and performance reports to senior administrative and pharmacy leadership
• Collaboration: Build strong relationships with internal leadership, external vendors, and peer 340B institutions

• Exceptional communication and presentation skills
• High-level analytical and problem-solving abilities

• 8–10 years of healthcare experience, with a proven track record in pharmacy operations or 340B program management

• Experience at local/regional systems that have undergone major multi-hospital integrations is highly desirable

• Candidates whose sole experience is managing a single clinic or a retail-focused 340B setup will not be a fit for this scale of operations
• The candidate must have the flexibility to travel on-site on short notice for complex, multi-day government audits or when a specific branch hospital requires immediate, hands-on optimization
