WHAT YOU'LL DO

The Product Solutions Consultant supports the successful implementation and adoption of StaffGarden Competency programs for healthcare clients, reporting to the Senior Product Solutions Consultant.

  • Train end users and new organizations on how to use the StaffGarden Competency program, including ongoing maintenance, so clients can confidently own the program over the long term.
  • Support senior consultants and Account Managers in client design sessions and, occasionally, in Quarterly Business Reviews, contributing product and clinical context and helping clients adopt new features.
  • Perform quality assurance checks on Competency builds completed by the Support team, flagging issues and escalating complex design questions to senior consultants.
  • Capture client feedback during implementation and adoption, and relay it to senior consultants and the Product team to inform prioritization.

  • A self-starter who operates with minimal direction - comfortable navigating ambiguity, independently researching and troubleshooting problems, and driving work forward without close oversight.
  • A clinical perspective that helps guide clients on competency design and best practice.
  • Ability to travel up to 15% travel for client training and engagement.
  • Bachelor's degree required.
