Healthcare Program Manager


Why We Have This Role

As a Healthcare Program Manager, you will lead complex, cross-solution implementations for our largest enterprise healthcare clients. You will drive program-level execution across multiple concurrent workstreams, managing risks, issues, and scope boundaries in high-velocity, often ambiguous environments. Reporting to the Director, PMO, you will bring strong organizational discipline and influence internal cross-functional teams—including Delivery, Technical, Support, Advisors, and Growth partners—to ensure seamless, high-quality execution. If you excel at driving clarity out of complexity, leading through influence, and delivering high-stakes healthcare software programs, this role will give you significant impact. 


How You’ll Find Success

  • Cross-Functional Influence: Drives follow-through and accountability across diverse internal teams without direct positional authority. 
  • Rigorous Governance & Discipline: Maintains precise program tracking, RAID logs, and executive reporting across complex, multi-workstream implementations. 
  • Proactive Risk & Escalation Management: Surfaces risks early and leads rapid cross-functional responses during critical escalations until issues stabilize. 
  • Executive & Tailored Communication: Crafts concise, clear updates for executive, operational, and technical audiences, even when dealing with incomplete information. 
  • Scope Boundary Discipline: Firmly enforces delivery scope and implementation criteria while protecting client relationships and partnering with Growth on commercial decisions. 

 

How You’ll Grow

  • Lead high-visibility, enterprise-scale healthcare SaaS deployments across our largest health system clients. 
  • Advance your strategic PMO leadership capabilities by refining program governance, risk methodologies, and continuous process improvements. 
  • Build deep relationships across executive, clinical, operational, and technical leadership inside top-tier healthcare organizations. 
  • Expand your expertise in leveraging AI and automation tools to synthesize operational data into executive-ready communication. 

 

Things You’ll Do

  • Own Program Execution: Manage program-level execution for multi-solution implementations across various business units simultaneously. 
  • Establish Program Governance: Maintain integrated project plans, RAID logs, and governance structures using tools such as Wrike. 
  • Lead Issue Resolution & Escalations: Coordinate cross-functional responses to resolve complex client escalations and stabilize workstreams. 
  • Manage Scope & Transition: Enforce scope criteria to declare implementations "done" before transitioning clients smoothly to long-term relationship owners. 
  • Leverage Modern PM Tools & AI: Adapt program templates, synthesize progress data, and utilize AI/automation tools to streamline reporting and communication. 

 

What We’re Looking For On Your Resume

  • 8+ years of program, project, or client delivery management experience (preferably within healthcare, health tech, or enterprise SaaS environments). 
  • Demonstrated track record managing complex, cross-functional programs with competing priorities and multiple workstreams. 
  • Strong domain knowledge in the healthcare industry (patient experience, clinical operations, digital health, or quality improvement). 
  • Bachelor’s degree required; Master’s (MBA, MHA, MPH) or PMP/PgMP certification is a strong plus. 
  • Proven experience utilizing project/program management software (e.g., Wrike) and driving governance structures. 

 

What You Should Know About This Team

  • Enterprise Delivery Focus: We manage the most complex and critical multi-solution implementations across enterprise healthcare systems. 
  • Culture of Influence & Accountability: We partner through strong relationships, clear communication, and persistent follow-through rather than top-down authority. 
  • Innovation & Efficiency: We continuously improve our delivery playbooks, templates, and leverage AI to enhance productivity and visibility. 
  • Structured & Supportive PMO: We operate under clear PMO leadership that values proactive risk management, clear boundaries, and team collaboration. 

 

Our Team’s Favorite Perks and Benefits

  • Comprehensive Health & Wellness Coverage: Premium medical, dental, and vision packages for employees and dependents.
  • Professional Certification Support: Sponsorship and support for continuing education, including PMP, PgMP, and agile certifications. 
  • Generous Paid Time Off: Comprehensive paid vacation, sick leave, paid parental leave, and company holidays.
  • 401(k) Retirement Plan: Competitive company matching contributions to support your long-term financial health.
