Dr Alex Senciuc
Associate Director
As an Associate Director in New and Emerging Markets, I bring over 10 years of experience in healthcare planning and architecture, underpinned by a PhD in strategic healthcare planning. I have led the planning, design, and delivery of major healthcare infrastructure and transformation programmes across the UK, Europe, Africa, and North America. My expertise lies in driving system-wide change through data-driven and collaborative approaches that integrate clinical, workforce, infrastructure, and financial strategies.
From treatment to prevention, hospital to community, and generic to personalised care, I specialise in distilling complex challenges into clear, actionable solutions, aligning diverse stakeholders around shared objectives, and enabling sustainable transformation.
At Archus my role involves...
My role involves helping global healthcare organisations address complex, system-wide challenges through the strategic planning of major transformation and infrastructure investment programmes. I work with a diverse portfolio of clients, guiding projects from initial concept through to completion, across primary, acute, specialist, and community services. My work spans from optimising individual services to shaping integrated regional strategies, ensuring that investment and transformation deliver measurable, sustainable impact.
I was drawn to healthcare by...
The work that I do in healthcare is usually very complex and fast-paced. That is why I always strive to think on my feet and search to innovate. When I do succeed, it means my work will lead to improvements in the lives of many patients for generations to come. This makes it all worthwhile.
Memorable career moment?
The "A-ha!" moments when multi-disciplinary stakeholders realise the impact of the strategies they propose in an Integrated Care System planning workshop. These workshops were organised as part of my PhD and reunited clinical, workforce, infrastructure, and finance stakeholders from primary, acute, and community healthcare organisations, with the objective to plan services and resources across the ICS. These moments marked step changes in their understanding of how the healthcare system works, and led to significant improvements in whole system strategy development.
Why Archus?
Having previously collaborated with many of the people working here as well as seeing their growth path over time have been compelling reasons for joining Archus.
Most significant trend for healthcare in the future?
Globally, the largest challenge in healthcare is finding sensible ways of doing more with less, a.k.a. integrated care. The most significant barriers to this are the established institutional silos, processes and procedures. And the most significant opportunities lie in the data and the digital technologies that can bridge the divide and accelerate change.
