Time Type: Full time
Work Arrangement: Hybrid / field-based
Travel: Up to 75%, including overnight travel across HCN-supported markets
Location: United States; preferred proximity to a major airport, subject to HR confirmation
Manager: Health & Community Navigator Supervisor
Position Summary
This HCN Float role is a hybrid between McKesson distribution centers (DCs) and the community. The role will involve Health & Community Navigator functions and provides temporary or supplemental coverage across assigned HCN-supported markets. A Health & Community Navigator (HCN) is a liaison and provides cultural mediation between the health care system, social services, and the community.
An HCN is a trusted resource and has a close understanding of the ethnicity, language, socioeconomic status, and life experiences of the community served. An HCN assists people in gaining access to needed services and builds individual, community, and system capacity by increasing health knowledge and self-sufficiency through activities such as outreach, navigation and follow-up, community health education and information, social support, advocacy, and encouragement to participate in clinical screenings. This work supports McKesson employees and builds McKesson's presence with community agencies and partners in the local area.
The candidate must be willing to travel up to 75%, including overnight travel, and be flexible with work hours to accommodate different distribution center shifts, temporary assignments, and changing market needs. The Float HCN will meet with employees onsite or virtually to assess and address non-clinical resource and healthcare needs, hold educational sessions, organize volunteer events, and maintain service continuity during PTO, leaves, vacancies, onboarding, new market launches, and periods of increased demand. In the community, the Float HCN will meet with local organizations to build McKesson's presence and identify new programs that can support the community.
