Job description
The Heart & Vascular Institute (HVI) at UVA Health is growing, and we're looking for a Project Management Consultant who wants to help shape that growth from the ground up.
This is a unique opportunity to join a newly formed Institute and contribute to projects that directly support operational excellence, strategic growth, and communication across one of UVA Health's most visible clinical service lines. You'll work with physicians, administrators, analysts, and operational leaders across the organization, helping turn data into decisions and ideas into action.
If you enjoy variety, have strong organizational skills, and are equally comfortable working with data, communications, and project coordination, this role offers the chance to make a significant impact while building relationships across the health system.

The successful candidate will take ownership of critical recurring processes while helping develop new tools, communications, and projects that support strategic priorities.
