Led by seasoned healthcare executives, operators, and clinicians, IHS partners with organizations to drive sustainable performance improvement and long-term growth through strategic growth design, operating model transformation, AI and digital enablement, clinical quality and patient care optimization, and revenue strategy-helping clients build resilient, future-ready healthcare enterprises in an increasingly complex environment.

  • Manage scope, risk, and change control to maintain alignment with engagement objectives
  • Ensure benefits tracking and realization tied to EBITDA, cost savings, revenue improvement, or quality metrics
  • Proactively identify and address risks to financial and operational outcomes
  • Lead, coach, and oversee PMO and project support staff
  • Act as a recognized subject matter expert across margin and/or quality improvement disciplines, including workforce productivity, supply chain, revenue cycle, managed care, physician enterprise, strategy, and care transformation


Qualifications
  • 9-15+ years of experience in healthcare consulting, operations, or enterprise transformation
  • Proven track record leading complex, multi-workstream engagements with measurable financial impact
  • Experience working directly with C-suite and senior health system leaders
  • Strong program and project management, governance, and execution capabilities
  • Advanced financial acumen related to margin and performance improvement
