Position Summary We are seeking a Director, Consumer Marketing & Strategy to define and advance iRhythm’s direct-to-consumer (DTC) marketing strategy and help shape our longer-term approach to consumer growth and engagement. Reporting into the VP, Global Marketing and Commercial Strategy, this highly visible, senior individual contributor will connect consumer insights, market opportunities and commercial priorities to strategies that increase awareness, improve patient education and engagement, and support sustainable business growth. This leader will own the consumer marketing strategy and roadmap across priority business initiatives, establish scalable omnichannel capabilities, and translate market and patient insights into strategic choices, investment recommendations and measurable outcomes. Working through influence rather than direct people management, the Director will convene cross-functional teams and agency partners to bring high-impact programs to market in a compliant and patient-centered manner. As the organization’s consumer capabilities mature, this role is expected to play an increasingly significant role in defining an enterprise consumer strategy, including where and how iRhythm engages consumers throughout their health journey.
