• Prepare high-quality materials, presentations, and progress updates for executive-level committees and regional governance tables, ensuring follow-through on decisions and action items.

• Develop, monitor, and report on key performance indicators-including referral volumes, wait times, equity measures, and patient experience-to support continuous quality improvement and strategic decision-making.

• Identify opportunities to improve referral management, enhance patient navigation, optimize workflows, and support long-term sustainability and scalability across coordinated access pathways.

• Master’s degree in Health Administration, Public or Business Administration, or related field; equivalent experience considered.

• Undergraduate degree in health, business, or related discipline preferred.

• PMP designation preferred.
