His leadership in clinical innovation and digital capability development will elevate our ability to support governments outside the U.S. and deliver stronger outcomes for the people they serve.
“As Paul steps into this role, I want to wish the best for Kevin Reilly as he retires from his role leading our Outside the U.S. Segment and thank him for his significant contributions to Maximus over the past 20+ years.”
Recognised as a leader in occupational medicine, Dr Williams has held senior clinical roles in the UK’s National Health Service, policing and some of the country’s largest businesses.
