• Coordinate cross-functional workstreams across the implementation pillars: strategic partnership readiness, data and utilization, center operations, clinical operations, real estate/space planning, and payer relations
• Build and maintain a single master project plan with named owners, due dates, dependencies, and milestone gates that require sign-off before a project moves to the next phase
• Maintain PMO standards, templates, and tools (e.g., Smartsheet, project charters, RACI, status reports) to keep delivery consistent across the portfolio
• Run go-live readiness activities, including staging, system testing, onboarding and training, dress rehearsals, and command center activation
• Use Agile and sprint-based methods, including sprint planning, backlog management, and committed-work tracking, alongside traditional project management practices as appropriate
• Prepare weekly PMO status updates (BLUF, key milestones, priorities, wins, risks, and decisions) with Green/Yellow/Red status for executive audiences
• Facilitate steering committees, core team meetings, and functional workgroups, including agendas, pre-reads, recaps, action items, and follow-through
• Identify, escalate, and reduce risks, issues, and dependencies early, and bring clear options and recommendations to leadership
• Build strong working relationships with internal stakeholders and external partners, including payers, FQHCs, vendors, and community organizations
• Track project KPIs, budgets, and ROI, and report progress against targets
• Lead end-to-end planning and execution of new site implementations (DeNovo centers, tuck-ins, and new market launches), from kickoff through go-live and post-launch stabilization
• Support 90-day post-go-live stabilization and a criteria-based handoff to market operations, including documenting lessons learned and adding them to the implementation playbook
• Perform other duties as assigned

Requirements:

• Bachelor's degree in Business Administration, Healthcare Administration, or a related field required; additional relevant experience may be considered in lieu of a degree on a year-for-year basis

• Exceptional verbal communication and presentation skills, with the ability to facilitate meetings and present to audiences at all levels, including executive leadership and external partners
