Old Toronto, Canada Greenshield Holdings Full time
p>WHO WE ARE

When it comes to health, we’re always looking for ways to push for better. In 1957, our founder, pharmacist William Wilkinson, witnessed a mother sacrifice her health by forgoing her own medicine to pay for her sick daughter’s prescription. So, he introduced North America’s first prepaid drug plan, and GreenShield was born as a not-for-profit with a mission to support better health for all Canadians.

We aren’t just a health and benefits company. We’re the only not-for-profit social enterprise that brings worlds of coverage and care together, all in one place. We’re noble challengers, purposefully building a better way and we need the best people to help us create a more holistic approach that takes care of the mind and body.

Our mission is to create better health for all Canadians, and we know that starts with our employees.

GreenShield Health is on a mission to improve your mental health at home, at work and beyond. We offer accessible, affordable and effective digital mental health solutions for individuals and organizations that care. With secure virtual counselling, personalized therapist matching services and digital-first employee wellness programs, we’re helping over a million people start feeling better without the wait.

Want to help people get the support they need when they actually need it? span>

In support of these goals, the Health Policy and Partnerships Manager will leverage their extensive health policy and sector domain knowledge to analyze Canada’s changing health policy and organizational practice landscape, provide strategic briefings to GreenShield leadership teams, build and maintain robust health sector relationships across health systems, authorities, government and industry in initiatives led by the Enterprise Clinical Office and advance its mandate in providing strategic organizational leadership and oversight of GreenShield’s clinical quality, credibility and public impact. b>
