• Monitor staffing performance and implement action plans to improve coverage, responsiveness, caregiver utilization, and service-level performance.
• Establish clear performance expectations and accountability measures for the Staffing Liaison team.
• Identify process inefficiencies and lead operational improvement initiatives that increase productivity, consistency, scalability, and service delivery performance.
• Optimize workflows, technology utilization, and workforce management practices across markets.
• Ensure consistent processes, system utilization, and documentation standards across regions.
• Support strategic initiatives related to organizational growth, workforce planning, capacity forecasting, recruiting strategy, and operational excellence.

Qualifications

• 3+ years of people leadership experience in healthcare, human services, staffing, recruiting, workforce operations, or another high-volume service environment.
• Demonstrated success leading teams against measurable performance goals, KPIs, and accountability standards.
• Experience with workforce planning, staffing optimization, scheduling, recruiting, capacity management, or workforce deployment.
• Recruiting or talent acquisition experience strongly preferred, particularly in high-volume or difficult-to-fill workforce environments.
• Demonstrated ability to use data, analytics, forecasting, and operational reporting to drive decisions and improve outcomes.
• Experience improving workforce utilization, reducing staffing or service gaps, increasing coverage, or improving operational efficiency.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with the ability to translate complex operational data into clear priorities and actionable strategies.
• Experience developing or managing KPIs, dashboards, forecasts, and performance reporting.
• Strong process-improvement skills with experience identifying bottlenecks and implementing scalable operational solutions.
• Proficiency with workforce management systems, scheduling platforms, CRM systems, reporting tools, and other operational technology.
• Excellent communication and stakeholder-management skills with the ability to collaborate across clinical, recruiting, and operational teams.
• Strategic thinker who is equally comfortable analyzing performance data and working hands-on with a team to improve results.
• Ability to operate effectively in a fast-paced, multi-state environment.
