Manager, Corporate Strategy

Job Responsibilities

Enterprise Strategy & Portfolio Direction

• Corporate Strategy & Long-Range Planning: Partner with executive leadership and Finance to shape Heartflow’s enterprise strategy, strategic priorities, and long-range plan, linking market opportunity, competitive position, product roadmap, financial ambition, and organizational capabilities.
• Market, Portfolio & Adjacency Strategy: Evaluate where Heartflow should play next across products, clinical use cases, customer segments, geographies, and adjacent markets. Size opportunities, assess strategic fit and right-to-win, and develop clear recommendations on where to invest, sequence, or deprioritize.
• Strategic Opportunity Assessment: Frame and answer high-stakes, ambiguous business questions using market research, competitive analysis, customer and clinical insights, financial modeling, and scenario analysis. Translate analysis into explicit choices, trade-offs, and recommendations.

Strategic Execution & Business Transformation

• Priority Strategic Initiatives: Lead a small number of enterprise-wide initiatives that matter disproportionately to Heartflow’s growth and scale, moving from problem definition and strategy through cross-functional alignment, execution, and measurable outcomes.
• Business Model & Operating Model Evolution: Identify opportunities to improve how Heartflow creates and captures value, including pricing and contracting models, customer economics, operating model, decision rights, organizational interfaces, and scalable processes.
• Resource Allocation & Investment Prioritization: Work with Finance and functional leaders to evaluate competing uses of capital and operating resources. Build fact-based cases that help leadership prioritize investments, sequence capabilities, allocate resources across the portfolio, and make explicit stop-doing decisions.
• Value Creation & Performance Management: Translate strategic priorities into clear objectives, milestones, owners, and measures of value. Establish practical governance and management routines that surface issues early and keep major initiatives tied to enterprise outcomes.

Decision Support & Strategic Intelligence

• Executive & Board Decision Support: Develop strategy narratives, decision memos, and leadership and board materials that synthesize complex information into a clear strategic rationale, financial implications, key risks, and recommended path forward.
• Competitive, Market & Industry Intelligence: Build a forward-looking view of the forces shaping Heartflow’s business, including competitors, technology, reimbursement, clinical evidence, customer behavior, and broader healthcare trends, and translate those signals into implications for strategy.
• AI-Native Strategy Workflows: Use AI tools and LLMs to accelerate research, synthesis, analysis, scenario development, and presentation creation, and help establish modern, repeatable workflows for the strategy team.

Skills Needed

• Exceptional structured problem-solving and strategic thinking, with the ability to deconstruct ambiguous questions, identify the critical issues, and develop clear, evidence-based recommendations.
• Strong market, competitive, and financial analysis skills, including the ability to connect external market dynamics with internal operating and financial implications.
• Executive-level synthesis and communication: able to distill complex analysis into crisp narratives, decision points, and recommendations for senior leadership and board audiences.
• Advanced financial modeling and scenario analysis skills, with expert-level proficiency in spreadsheets and comfort working with imperfect information.
• Cross-functional leadership: proven ability to influence, align, and drive work across teams without direct reporting authority.
• Strong business judgment and curiosity, with a desire to develop deep knowledge of Heartflow’s products, customers, economics, competitive landscape, and the broader medical technology industry.
• High ownership and comfort operating in a fast-paced environment where the most important questions are often not fully defined at the outset.
• AI mindset and comfort leveraging LLMs and modern tools to improve the speed and quality of strategic work.
