  • Project & Team Leadership

  • Lead cross-functional projects that align with business objectives (marketing, clinical, operations, tech enablement, etc.).
  • Support talent development through collaboration with the operations and clinical managers.
  • Help build a performance-driven culture while supporting employee satisfaction and retention.
