The Learning Center serves as the Program Office for a statewide Medi-Cal focused practice initiative, the Equity and Practice Transformation (EPT) program, a $160 million-dollar investment in primary care transformation funded by the California Department of Health Care Services (DHCS).   The Learning Center also works with a diverse portfolio of funders and partners - including Managed Care Plans, purchasers such as Covered California, and foundations including the California Healthcare Foundation and Blue Shield Foundation of California- to build Population Health Management (PHM) capabilities, advance value-based care and improve health outcomes for Californians. We serve as a strategic partner to organizations and institutions committed to advancing health outcomes and equity.  All our efforts are grounded in a shared goal: supporting a more coordinated and person-centered healthcare system that strengthens primary care and advances equitable access across California’s safety net. 

The Position 
The Learning Center is seeking a Program Manager to lead the day-to-day execution of one or more programs and to serve as the primary operational owner for the programs they support. This is the foundational program role on the team, reporting to a Senior Program Manager and working closely with program, evaluation, and communications staff to move complex, fast-paced work forward. 

Building on a strong foundation of coordination and administrative skill, the Program Manager goes beyond execution to take ownership of workstreams, anticipate needs, exercise judgment, and manage tasks and timelines to completion with minimal supervision. The role combines hands-on operational delivery, including meeting and event coordination, documentation, and program administration, with growing responsibility for planning, problem-solving, and stakeholder management. 

This position is ideal for an organized, proactive, and detail-oriented professional who is ready to own programmatic operations end to end in a mission-driven health care organization. The Program Manager will interact with staff at all levels, both inside and outside the organization, and will contribute to the successful execution of high-level work that supports historically underserved populations. 

What the Work Looks Like Day to Day 
This role supports the operational backbone of the Programs Team. On a typical day, the Program Manager may be scheduling meetings, preparing materials, developing and formatting slides, updating workplans and trackers, documenting meeting notes, coordinating logistics for learning sessions, analyzing and summarizing program data, and following up on action items to ensure tasks move forward.
