  • Provide guidance and support to Project Managers throughout the project lifecycle.
  • Personally lead the organization's most strategic, complex, and high-impact initiatives.
  • Develop project charters, implementation strategies, budgets, communication plans, resource plans, and success metrics.
  • Ensure projects are delivered on schedule, within scope, and within approved budgets.
  • Manage cross-functional teams consisting of leaders from Operations, Sales, Recruiting, Clinical Services, Finance, Human Resources, Marketing, Information Technology, and other departments.
  • Partner with executive leadership to identify strategic initiatives and organizational priorities.
