About the company
Iterative Health is a healthcare technology and services company powering the acceleration of clinical research to transform patient outcomes.
We built a leading performance-driven network of 100+ sites across the US, Europe, India, and Australia, conducting research directly in the communities where care is delivered across gastrointestinal, hepatology, obesity, and cardiology. By combining deep clinical trial expertise with cutting-edge AI, we connect sponsors’ scientific ambitions with high-performing research teams that expedite and expand access to novel therapeutics for patients in need. Today, Iterative Health is headquartered in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and New York City with 250+ employees world-wide.
Iterative Health is building the operating infrastructure for the next generation of clinical research, and we’re looking for a founder-minded operator to build and run a new business inside it: our non-interventional, biological specimen collections research business.
As the Vice President, Non-Interventional Research at Iterative Health you will have a unique opportunity to build and lead a new business within a rapidly growing healthcare technology company. You will have end-to-end ownership of our non-interventional, biological sample collections business, serving as the leader responsible for defining strategy, driving commercial growth, building operational infrastructure, and delivering financial performance.
You will operate with broad autonomy and accountability, leading the business from concept to scale. This is not a role where you’ll inherit a fully scaled organization—you’ll build it, from developing the go-to-market strategy and establishing operational excellence to building and leading a high-performing team.
We’re looking for a proven builder—someone who has successfully launched, scaled, and led a healthcare services business, thrives in entrepreneurial environments, and is excited by the opportunity to create lasting impact. If you’re energized by turning vision into execution and building businesses that improve patient care and clinical research, this is an exceptional opportunity to do just that.
