Why this is worth applying to

Worth considering if you are a clinically trained professional who already has payer, PBM, managed care, or client-facing commercial experience — this is a strong non-clinical career track with remote flexibility. Skip it if you have no account management or client-facing exposure, since the senior title and commercial scope make it a hard pivot without that background.

Who should apply

Pharmacists (PharmD/RPh) with PBM, managed care, formulary, MTM, or drug utilization experience; nurses or clinicians who have worked in payer, insurance, benefits consulting, or pharma/med device account roles; clinicians with demonstrated client-facing, consultative, or sales-adjacent experience.

CV angle

Reframe clinical experience as client and stakeholder advisory work: highlight formulary/medication policy decisions, drug utilization and cost-management initiatives, clinical program design or rollout, and any cross-functional work with payers, employers, or vendors. Quantify impact where real (e.g., cost avoidance, protocol adoption, panel or program size) and surface presentation, data analysis, and relationship-management skills rather than bedside duties.

Skills to highlight

  • Formulary and benefit design knowledge
  • Drug trend and utilization analysis
  • Client relationship and account management
  • Clinical program implementation
  • Managed care / payer landscape knowledge
  • Data analysis and reporting (Excel, BI tools)
  • Executive-level presentation and communication
  • Cross-functional collaboration with sales, clinical, and operations

Role summary

A senior, remote, commercial-facing account executive position within Cigna's Express Scripts PBM business, focused on managing and growing relationships with commercial (employer/health plan) clients. The role blends clinical pharmacy expertise with consultative account management — advising clients on formulary strategy, drug trend, and clinical programs — rather than delivering patient care.
