The consultative nature of the position means there is potential for a high frequency of client facing activities and meetings. This may include on-site or teleconferenced presentations as an individual or team, and written documents for assigned clients and in support of other clients.

Successful candidates will acquire and maintain a deep understanding of CVS Caremark’s business, products, services and support while using critical thinking and effective time management/organization to meet deadlines.
