Job Title: Associate Principal, MEQI
Location: Remote
Description
Founded in 2004, BME Strategies is a Massachusetts-based consulting firm specializing in the design, implementation, and evaluation of public health programs for local, regional, and state government partners. Our work supports evidence-based, community-driven solutions that strengthen public health systems and advance equity across the communities we serve. At BME, our clients are on the front lines of Public Health. Priorities may shift but our commitment to supporting our partners does not.
We take pride in having multi-year, multi-project engagements, often working closely as an extension of their staff. Our success comes from our shared values: a bias toward action; optimistically collaborative; willingness to navigate ambiguity; minimal ego - no job is too small or big; pursuing the equitable solution; always learning, and; committed to quality at every stage.
Position Overview
BME Strategies is recruiting for an Associate Principal within the Monitoring, Evaluation and Quality Improvement (MEQI) practice, with a portfolio spanning state-scale program evaluation and public health data modernization. This may include rural health evaluation design and implementation, multi-site evaluation architecture, performance measurement for complex public health initiatives, public health data strategy, health information exchange (HIE) integration, data governance, and capacity-building for public health agencies
navigating a rapidly changing data landscape.
Candidates may come to this role from a program evaluation background, a public health data systems background, or both. What is consistent across strong candidates is a track record of leading complex engagements at the state level; managing and developing staff; holding client relationships with sophistication and commercial awareness; and contributing to business development with the credibility of someone who has delivered at scale.
This role is an excellent fit for someone who is as committed to growing a practice and developing a team as to delivering excellent technical work.
Key Responsibilities
- BME Org-Wide Responsibilities for Associate Principals: Subject Matter Expert; contributes to practice area knowledge-building and technical standards; may present or publish externally
- Serves as senior technical expert and advisor on projects; may take on account management responsibilities; contributes to project design and quality oversight in a technical and advisory capacity.
- Provides technical guidance across the firm; contributes to practice area development; formal mentorship of Advisors and Senior Advisors without people management responsibilities
- Contributes to exemplary client satisfaction; recognizes business opportunities and surfaces them to leadership; leads technical components of proposals; participates in pitching as a subject matter expert.
- Delivery Leadership: Lead delivery across active engagements, serving as the senior client-facing point of contact and final reviewer on deliverables.
- Oversee state-scale program evaluation engagements, including evaluation design and implementation, multi-site evaluation architecture, metric development and readiness assessment, and performance reporting.
- Lead or oversee public health data modernization engagements, including data strategy, HIE integration advisory, data governance design, data quality frameworks, and capacity-building for public health data staff.
- Identify delivery risks early and escalate to the practice lead with proposed mitigations.
- Contribute to after-action reviews and knowledge capture at project close.
- Account Management & Business Development: Serve as the primary account manager for standing client relationships — the point of contact when clients want to discuss what comes next, not just what is active.
- Provide the technical and methodological substance for proposals: shape technical approach, contribute to budget and pricing, and author or co-author proposal sections.
- Participate in go/no-go decisions as the technical voice, assessing feasibility, capacity, and fit.
- Identify and pursue organic growth opportunities within existing client relationships.
- Partner with the Senior BD Advisor on pursuits they source, contributing technical grounding without taking on day-to-day sourcing or pipeline administration.
- Thought Leadership & Practice Development: Supervisory Capacity: Actively build the capacity of junior and mid-level staff through structured mentorship, skills coaching, and deliberate stretch assignments.
- Develop and maintain a thought leadership platform relevant to state-scale evaluation and/or public health data modernization; present at a minimum of one relevant conference per year (NACCHO, ASTHO, APHA, AEA, PHII Data Summit, or equivalent).
- Author or substantively contribute to capability statements, case studies, and methodology briefs.
