Summary

We are seeking an experienced Program/Portfolio Manager to support a senior clinical/appeals leader by taking ownership of complex, large-scale program execution across the organization''s highly regulated project portfolio. This role will operate on a dotted line to that leader while officially reporting up through the IT organization. The individual will free up leadership bandwidth by managing programmatic details, guiding project managers, and serving as a steering point of contact on calls and decisions when the leader is unavailable.

Responsibilities:

Own and manage complex, large-scale programs and projects (e.g., a single initiative equivalent in scope and complexity to 10–15 typical projects)
Guide and mentor existing program/project managers on foundational SDLC practices, including requirements gathering, workflow capture, and business process modeling
Build and maintain project plans, adjusting timelines and scope (e.g., determining what can be deferred to a later phase to deliver an MVP on an accelerated timeline)
Serve as an empowered decision-maker on calls and in discussions when senior leadership is not present, keeping conversations focused and driving toward outcomes
Coordinate cross-functionally with IT, vendors, and business stakeholders to keep projects on track
Interface with vendors, support contract negotiations, and coordinate requirements gathering across teams
Track and report on project status using Jira, and know when and who to escalate to (e.g., other resource owners) when blockers arise
Provide informed steering and guidance on SaaS implementations (e.g., Salesforce), including asking the right technical questions around APIs, SSO, DevOps, and automation/RPA concepts
Understand and account for regulatory and compliance requirements tied to highly regulated environments (e.g., FedRAMP, FISMA High) when guiding implementation and deployment decisions
Communicate effectively with both technical and non-technical stakeholders, distilling key information and maintaining momentum in discussions
Support forecasting, resource budgeting, and allocation across multiple concurrent programs

Must Haves:

Strong blend of business acumen and IT experience
Proven experience managing multiple large, complex programs or projects simultaneously (portfolio-level experience, not single-project program management)
Experience mentoring or guiding project/program managers on SDLC fundamentals
Familiarity with Agile and Scrum methodologies and general SDLC processes
Experience with forecasting, resource budgeting, and allocation across programs
Experience with SaaS implementations, including a working understanding of API integrations
Working knowledge of Jira for project tracking and status visibility (navigation-level, not admin or developer-level)
Strong communication skills, with demonstrated ability to work effectively across technical and non-technical audiences
High degree of ownership and independent decision-making ability, escalating only when truly necessary

Nice-to-Haves:

Direct experience with Salesforce implementations or deployments specifically
Experience working in highly regulated industries (banking, medical, Medicaid), including familiarity with compliance frameworks such as FedRAMP and FISMA High
Prior Medicaid program exposure
PMP, PMI, or other Agile/PM-related certifications
Familiarity with SSO, DevOps, Git, and automation/RPA concepts
