Project Manager – Healthcare Technical Applications

Contractor Duration: 6 Months + Extensions

Team Size: 12 PMs - all specific to their areas (infrastructure, applications, etc.)

Interview Process: Three rounds (PMO Manager → Director → VP of PMO), typically completed within 1.5–2 weeks.

Overview

The organization is expanding its Project Management Office due to several internal PMs transitioning to a major ERP/Oracle implementation. As a result, we are seeking two experienced contract Project Managers and one full‑time Project Manager to support a wide range of application-focused initiatives across the hospital system.

These PMs will lead projects from initial approval through full implementation—true cradle‑to‑grave ownership. The work is heavily application‑driven and often involves integrating new departmental systems into Epic. Every project is unique, so we need adaptable, confident PMs who can quickly understand a specialty area and drive delivery.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead and manage application-focused healthcare projects from initiation through closeout.
• Coordinate cross-functional teams, including clinical departments, IT, vendors, and executive stakeholders.
• Oversee project planning, scope, timelines, budgets, risks, and communication plans.
• Ensure new departmental applications or systems are successfully integrated into Epic when required.
• Serve as the primary point of contact for project stakeholders at all levels—executive leadership, clinicians, technical teams, and end users.
• Drive project execution once funding and approvals are secured, ensuring timely and high‑quality delivery.
• Provide clear, consistent reporting to PMO leadership.

Required Qualifications

• 8+ years of Project Management experience, ideally in complex, multi‑stakeholder environments.
• Must have experience managing projects of at least 6 months in duration and $300K+ budget.
• Strong interpersonal skills with the ability to engage effectively with both senior leadership and frontline staff.
• Demonstrated experience managing full lifecycle projects with minimal oversight.
• Healthcare industry experience strongly preferred.
• Epic experience is highly beneficial, though not required.

Preferred Qualifications

• PMP certification (preferred but not required).
• Experience managing application implementations across multiple clinical specialties.
• Background working within a hospital or large healthcare system.
