Senior Operations Project Manager - Healthcare

Build programs. Influence leaders. Change how care gets delivered.

If you’re the kind of leader who thrives on turning complexity into clarity, influencing without authority, and watching ambitious healthcare initiatives actually come to life — this role was built for you.

We’re looking for a Senior Operations Project Manager who brings both strategic horsepower and operational grit. Someone who doesn’t just manage projects, but moves organizations forward, improves patient experience, and leaves systems better than they found them.

• You’ll sit at the intersection of strategy, operations, and clinical programs
• You’ll influence leaders at every level including C-suite executives
• You’ll play a critical role in Medicare Advantage, value-based care, and population health
• You’ll launch, scale, and optimize programs that directly impact patient outcomes
• You’ll partner with health plans, providers, and internal teams to drive real results

• Lead complex, high-visibility operational initiatives from concept through execution — and see them stick
• Prioritize and manage multiple work streams independently, solving problems before they become barriers
• Drive performance across key healthcare metrics including HEDIS, KPIs, coding accuracy, and quality outcomes
• Evaluate indirect team performance, providing clear feedback and driving continuous improvement
• Partner cross-functionally to ensure organizational priorities are executed, documented, and scalable
• Develop and facilitate external-facing Joint Operating Committees with health plans and provider partners
• Ensure facilities are safe, compliant, and welcoming for patients and staff
• Navigate compliance requirements including OSHA, CLIA, HIPAA, and risk programs
• Communicate with confidence — whether you’re writing executive-ready materials or presenting to senior leadership

• You’re known for your follow-through
  , collaboration, and ability to lead through influence
• You’re comfortable operating in ambiguity and adapting as priorities evolve
• You combine analytical thinking with strong interpersonal skills
• You’re equally effective in the details and the big picture
• You enjoy working with people across the organization — no matter their title

• Proven experience in healthcare operations
  , ideally within a value-based care environment
• Hands-on experience with:
  • Medicare Advantage
  • Population Health, HEDIS, and HCC coding
  • Claims, utilization management, and care management
  • Launching and sustaining clinical programs
  • Entering and supporting new health plan markets
• Strong command of project management tools such as Smartsheet and MS Project
• Advanced proficiency in Excel, PowerPoint, Word, and Outlook

• MBA or MHA preferred
• PMP or PgMP certification required
• BA/BS in Business, Healthcare Management — or 10+ years of healthcare operations project management experience

This role is for a healthcare operator who wants more than just another project to manage. It’s for someone who wants impact, visibility, and the opportunity to help shape how healthcare programs perform — at scale.

If that sounds like you, this could be the role that finally checks all the boxes.
