Contracts Manager
Our client is a rapidly growing healthcare technology consulting organization that partners with hospitals and healthcare systems to deliver IT consulting and advisory services. Following a recent merger, the company is entering an exciting phase of integration and growth, creating opportunities for professionals who enjoy building processes, driving operational improvements, and making a meaningful impact.
This position can be remote for the right candidate, but a strong preference exists for Southern California candidates. If applying remotely, please confirm you either have:
a.) experience implementing a new contracts management system from the ground up
OR
b.) experience in the healthcare or IT consulting industry.
Without one of these things, candidates outside Southern California will not be considered.
This is not an entry-level position.
Position Overview
The Contracts Manager will serve as the central point of coordination for the company's contract lifecycle management process. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys creating structure (not being told what to do) in evolving environments and can confidently establish best practices where processes may still be developing. The ideal candidate is a self-starter who thrives in dynamic environments and enjoys building structure where it does not yet exist. This position is not suited for someone who requires highly structured daily direction or extensive supervision.
