Job description

General Purpose
The Leave of Absence (LOA) Manager leads the strategy, governance, and execution of all leave of absence, disability, and paid time off programs across a complex, multi-state healthcare workforce. This role is accountable for delivering a compliant, consistent, and employee-centered experience while ensuring adherence to all federal, state, and local regulations.
Serving as the organization's subject matter expert, the LOA Manager provides clear, high-level guidance on regulatory requirements and complex cases. This role operates as both a people leader and operational owner, leading a team and establishing standards for execution, accountability, and consistency in a decentralized environment.
The ideal candidate combines deep regulatory expertise with strong operational leadership, with the ability to navigate evolving legal landscapes, drive structure and discipline, and deliver scalable, high-quality outcomes across the enterprise.
Essential Duties
Leave of Absence Program Leadership & Execution
  • Lead and oversee all leave of absence and accommodation programs across the enterprise.
  • Own end-to-end leave processes, including intake, eligibility, documentation, tracking, and return-to-work coordination.
  • Ensure consistent, compliant, and employee-centered program delivery at scale.
  • Establish and maintain standardized policies, procedures, and workflows.

Regulatory Expertise & Compliance
  • Serve as the subject matter expert on FMLA, ADA, PWFA, and state/local leave laws.
  • Maintain deep expertise in complex jurisdictions (e.g., CA, CO, OR, WA).
  • Interpret and apply regulations consistently across a multi-state workforce.
  • Monitor regulatory changes and ensure timely updates to policies and practices.
  • Support audits and ensure compliance readiness across programs.

Vendor Management & Operational Excellence
  • Manage and hold the third-party administrator (e.g., Unum) accountable for:
    • Timely and accurate employee communications
    • SLA adherence
    • Quality of case management
    • Consistent application of company policies
  • Partner regularly with the vendor to resolve issues and drive continuous improvement.
  • Ensure seamless integration between internal systems (e.g., Workday) and vendor platforms.

Cross-Functional Partnership & Integration
  • Partner with HR, Payroll, Benefits, Legal, Risk, Facilities, and Operations to ensure alignment.
  • Ensure leave processes integrate effectively with payroll, benefits, and employee data systems.
  • Proactively identify and resolve data, process, or experience gaps.
  • Serve as the central point of coordination for complex or high-risk cases.

Team Leadership & Capability Development
  • Lead, coach, and develop a team of LOA Specialists and Coordinators.
  • Provide guidance on complex cases and escalations.
  • Establish clear performance expectations and monitor workload and quality.
  • Build team capability in regulatory knowledge, case management, and employee experience.
  • Foster a high-performing, accountable, and service-oriented team culture.

Training, Enablement & Communication
  • Provide training and ongoing guidance to human resource leaders, managers, and cross-functional partners.
  • Develop scalable resources, including SOPs, job aids, and recorded training.
  • Lead live and virtual training sessions to improve understanding and consistency.
  • Ensure leaders are equipped to manage leave-related responsibilities effectively.

Data, Insights & Continuous Improvement
  • Analyze LOA data to identify trends, risks, and operational opportunities.
  • Use insights to improve processes, policies, and employee experience.
  • Drive continuous improvement initiatives across leave programs.
  • Provide reporting and insights to HR and business leadership

KEY OUTCOME (12-24 MONTHS)
  • Leave of absence programs operate with high consistency, compliance, and employee experience across all facilities.
  • Leaders and HR partners experience clear, practical guidance on leave and accommodation matters.
  • Third-party administrator (e.g., Unum) performance is reliable, measurable, and continuously improving.
  • Standardized policies, workflows, and tools reduce variability and compliance risk.
  • LOA data and insights provide visibility into trends, risks, and opportunities for improvement.
  • The LOA team demonstrates strong capability, judgment, and operational discipline.

Minimum Qualifications
  • Bachelor's degree in Human Resources, Business Administration, Healthcare Administration, or a related field; or an equivalent combination of education and relevant experience
  • 5+ years of progressive experience in leave of absence administration, including multi-state environments
  • 2+ years of leadership or team management experience
  • Strong working knowledge of FMLA, ADA, PWFA, and state/local leave laws
  • Experience in healthcare or other highly regulated, multi-site industries, with exposure to complex state leave programs (e.g., California, Oregon, Washington, Colorado)
  • Experience managing complex leave and accommodation cases
  • Experience working with leave management systems (e.g., Workday, Unum, or similar platforms)
  • Strong problem-solving, judgment, and decision-making capabilities

Preferred
  • Professional certifications (e.g., SHRM-CP, SHRM-SCP, PHR, SPHR)
  • Certified Leave Management Specialist (CLMS) or equivalent

Work Location
  • This role is based at PACS Headquarters in downtown Salt Lake City, UT. Relocation assistance is available for qualified candidates who reside outside the greater Salt Lake City area.
