Summary:
We are seeking a Senior Implementation Project Manager to serve as a high-impact individual contributor, leading complex, client-facing implementations within the behavioral health space. Candidates must bring direct experience in behavioral health technology implementations and/or clinical or operational behavioral health environments.
This role calls for a confident, consultative leader who actively engages both clients and internal stakeholders, drives accountability across cross-functional teams, and successfully leads complex, high-visibility implementations. This is not a passive task management role; the ideal candidate demonstrates strong executive presence, strategic thinking, and the ability to operate at both a high level and in the details of execution. They remain effective under pressure while ensuring progress and alignment across all workstreams. While the role involves coordinating people and initiatives, it does not include direct people management.
What You’ll Do:
- Independently lead end-to-end implementation of Bamboo Health solutions, owning project outcomes across scope, timeline, quality, and client satisfaction with minimal day-to-day oversight.
- Serve as a commanding yet consultative project leader, actively engaging clients and internal stakeholders to drive alignment, informed decision-making, and execution momentum.
- Coordinate and influence cross-functional teams (product, engineering, operations, client stakeholders), driving accountability through clear expectations and follow-through rather than formal authority.
- Own external-facing client engagement, including executive-level status updates, governance forums, escalation facilitation, and alignment on priorities and tradeoffs.
- Lead complex, high-visibility implementations, demonstrating sound judgment and composure in high-pressure situations with executive exposure.
- Establish strong project foundations by developing project structure, governance models, delivery plans, and documentation standards, particularly for new products or net-new client implementations.
- Balance strategic context with hands-on delivery, regularly diving into execution details to identify risks, remove blockers, and maintain momentum.
- Proactively identify risks, dependencies, and constraints; drive resolution through partnership, influence, and thoughtful escalation when appropriate.
- Hold internal and external stakeholders accountable for commitments and milestones through disciplined tracking, transparent communication, and consistent follow-through.
- Manage multiple concurrent projects or workstreams, prioritizing effectively to ensure high-quality execution across competing demands.
- Use project management tools, metrics, and reporting to assess project health, communicate progress, and support timely decision-making.
- Identify opportunities within assigned projects to improve implementation effectiveness, structure, and client experience.
- Explore opportunities to enhance workflows through AI or automation tools (e.g., document summarization, task routing, or data parsing).
