About the Role

Preference will be given to candidates residing in Western United States due to the geographic focus of this work and travel requirements.

The Senior Improvement Advisor provides advanced quality improvement, technical assistance, education, and project leadership to healthcare organizations seeking to improve quality, safety, and health outcomes. Working collaboratively with healthcare leaders, clinicians, and community partners, the Senior Improvement Advisor applies quality improvement science, implementation methods, and change management strategies to support healthcare organizations in achieving measurable and sustainable improvements in quality, safety, patient experience, and health outcomes.

The role requires building trusted relationships while supporting healthcare improvement efforts that honor the unique strengths, priorities, and cultures of the communities served.

Success in this role requires the ability to facilitate organizational change, lead healthcare quality improvement activities, and support healthcare transformation efforts within complex healthcare environments.

What You'll Do

• Partner with Tribal, Indian Health Service (IHS), and Urban Indian healthcare organizations to improve quality, safety, patient experience, and health outcomes.
• Lead healthcare quality improvement initiatives using improvement science, data-driven decision making, and change management strategies.
• Provide coaching, technical assistance, facilitation, and education to support implementation and sustainability of improvement efforts.
• Build trusted relationships with healthcare leaders, clinicians, quality staff, Tribal leaders, and community partners.
• Guide project planning, implementation, documentation, reporting, and contract deliverables across multiple initiatives.
• Analyze performance data, identify improvement opportunities, and support organizations in achieving measurable outcomes.

• 7+ years of experience leading or supporting healthcare quality improvement, clinical operations, patient safety, performance improvement, accreditation, health system transformation, or related healthcare initiatives.
• Experience facilitating organizational change and healthcare transformation within complex healthcare environments.
• Experience managing multiple projects and competing priorities while meeting reporting, documentation, and contract deliverable requirements.

• Experience providing coaching, technical assistance, education, or facilitation to healthcare teams and leaders.
• Experience working in remote or geographically dispersed healthcare settings.

Work Environment & Travel
