Project Manager

Summary

Diverge Health partners with primary care providers to improve health access and outcomes for Medicaid patients. The Project Manager will coordinate, plan, and execute consequential cross-functional initiatives, beginning with a multi-phase merger integration and later supporting strategic enterprise projects. The role will manage execution plans, operating cadences, technical project delivery, risk resolution, and executive communications.

Responsibilities

• Orient quickly to the existing integration plan, workstream owners, and stakeholders
• Build and maintain detailed execution plans across all workstreams as a living document, with clear ownership, tracked milestones, and updates as priorities and complexity shift
• Run the operating cadence behind the plan: track status, facilitate workgroup meetings, surface risks and blockers early, drive decisions to closure, and document outcomes to keep stakeholders aligned and accountable
• Own delivery on technically complex projects — systems consolidation, data and platform migrations, tooling decisions — translating between technical leaders and business stakeholders so the right tradeoffs get made and nothing stalls in handoff
• Deliver crisp, executive-ready updates and materials for steering committee and leadership reviews

Skills

• PMP certification or equivalent project management credential
• 3+ years of project management experience, including ability to manage multiple projects in parallel
• Proficiency in modern project management tooling, including Aha!, Microsoft Project, and SharePoint
• Healthcare industry experience, particularly in value-based care and technology-enablement clinical services companies
• Candidates must be authorized to work in the United States without the need for employer sponsorship, now or at any time in the future
• Consulting background or experience working in a consulting-adjacent environment
• Systems thinking, with genuine comfort with complexity, interdependencies, and operating without complete information
• Experience bridging technology strategy and operational execution, including partnering closely with technology leaders to align product and systems decisions with broader integration goals
• Chicago-based with availability for regular in-person presence
