Role DescriptionThe Implementation Manager is responsible for leading the successful onboarding of new employer groups onto Oxbridge Health's Episode based benefit plans, across both direct and indirect sales channels. This includes direct sales to employers-where Oxbridge Health implements the benefit directly with the employer group-as well as indirect sales to employers through Episode Advantage Inside, where the implementation is delivered in partnership with other health plans and third-party administrators (TPAs). This role serves as the primary project manager during the implementation phase, coordinating across internal teams, external partners, employer clients, and partner health plans and TPAs to ensure a smooth transition from sale to active coverage.
The Implementation Manager ensures that benefit plans, eligibility data, enrollment processes, vendor integrations, and portals are accurately configured and operational prior to the group's effective date.
This role requires a self-starter with a natural curiosity, strong initiative, and the ability to quickly learn, problem-solve, thrive in a fast-paced environment and handle multiple implementations simultaneously without sacrificing deadlines or quality.
