Lead or co-lead complex, cross-functional quality improvement initiatives from scoping through implementation and evaluation

Build and maintain project charters, work plans, RACI matrices, milestone trackers, and stakeholder communication plans

Coordinate across COE leadership, CMOs, COOs, Finance, IT, and external health plan partners to ensure alignment and accountability

Apply structured methodologies (Lean, PDSA, Six Sigma, Agile) appropriate to initiative type and organizational context

Performance Reporting & Data Storytelling

Develop and maintain the department’s core reporting infrastructure: SACR, MOR, quality scorecards, value-based care dashboards, and ad hoc analytics

Translate raw data from multiple sources (HEDIS, Star Ratings, clinical registries, internal metrics) into compelling narratives for executive and Board audiences

Own presentation development for monthly/quarterly operational reviews, large initiatives, and regulatory reporting requirements

Establish consistent reporting standards, visual templates, and data governance practices across the department

Technology, AI & Process Innovation

Serve as the department’s primary translator between clinical quality priorities and technology/AI capabilities

Identify, pilot, and scale AI and automation tools that reduce manual administrative burden and improve data quality and reporting speed

Evaluate and recommend platforms, tools, and workflow solutions that enhance department efficiency

Build internal literacy around AI-assisted quality monitoring, documentation, and performance improvement tools

Performance Improvement & Change Management

Support SEPTEE framework implementation across service lines, including change management planning, training coordination, and adoption tracking

Facilitate process redesign efforts, using structured PI methodologies to identify root causes, redesign workflows, and monitor sustainability

Assist in development of value-based care performance improvement strategies in collaboration with health plan partners and clinical leadership

Communication & Stakeholder Engagement

Draft, review, and distribute internal and external communications on behalf of the EVP, including department announcements, partner correspondence, and regulatory submissions

Coordinate with HR, Finance, Legal, and other departments to advance quality-adjacent initiatives requiring cross-functional input

Represent the department in key operational forums when the EVP is unavailable or requests surrogate participation

EDUCATION:

Bachelor’s degree required; Master’s degree (MHA, MBA, MPH, or related), preferred.

PMP, CAPM, or equivalent project management certification, preferred.

Lean, Six Sigma Green Belt or Black Belt, preferred.

Clinical education, a plus.

WORK EXPERIENCE/QUALIFICATIONS:

Prior experience in chief-of-staff, operations liaison, performance improvement, clinical analytics, or senior project management capacity, preferred.

Demonstrated experience managing complex, cross-functional initiatives in a matrixed healthcare organization

Proven ability to develop Board- and executive-level reporting, presentations, and data narratives.

Prior experience with value-based care metrics, HEDIS, Star Ratings, or clinical quality and safety programs preferred

KNOWLEDGE, SKILLS, AND ABILITIES:

Exceptional written and verbal communication; able to synthesize complexity for diverse audiences.

Advanced proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite (PowerPoint, Excel, Teams, Outlook); familiarity with AI and automation tools (Copilot, ChatGPT, Tableau, or equivalent).

Strong analytical and data storytelling skills; ability to build compelling visualizations from disparate data sources.

High emotional intelligence; able to operate with diplomacy, discretion, and confidence at the executive level; courage to speak up.

Self-directed, adaptive, proactive, agile, and comfortable managing multiple high priority workstreams simultaneously.

Sound judgment in ambiguous, fast-moving situations; strong confidentiality orientation.

Team-orientation, respect for others, and strong collaboration orientation.
