Provider Onboarding Navigator

We are seeking a highly disciplined, process-driven Provider Onboarding Navigator to oversee the integration and successful onboarding of new or reactivated providers within our expanding provider network. This is a high-volume, concierge-style operations role—not a general administrative position. Operating as the primary “doorway” and point of contact for providers, the Navigator will drive a best-in-class, “white-glove” onboarding experience. As we launch our new Geo Mode operational strategy, you will own a specific “book of business,” managing and prioritizing application pipelines by region and Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA) to directly support company capacity and recruitment goals.

Key Responsibilities

• Prioritization & Project Management
• Own a Book of Business: Direct the end-to-end applications and onboarding pipeline for all providers within your assigned region, state, or area.
• Strategic Sequencing: Make critical decisions regarding the order of onboarding throughput based on regional capacity constraints, state assignments, and licensure types (factoring in state and plan licensure lead times).
• Cross-Functional Workflow Coordination: Synchronize a complex matrix of onboarding dependent activities including credentialing support, HR processes, IT setup, clinical readiness, and day-one scheduling.
• Maintain Timelines: Build and manage detailed regional project plans and timelines, utilizing the authority to adjust workflows as business needs shift, while holding stakeholders accountable to strict deadlines.
• High-Touch Provider & Stakeholder Engagement
• Primary Point of Contact: Provide dedicated 1:1 onboarding support to providers via phone and email with immaculate professional etiquette, adhering to variable response-time SLAs (including occasional standard and non-standard business hours).
• Leadership Liaison: Partner closely with Regional Directors and executive leadership to recommend the best courses of action to achieve client and network capacity goals.
• Training & Enablement: Facilitate provider education to ensure swift completion of key credentialing activities (e.g., CAQH ProView and MD-APP platforms). Develop and lead live training sessions, job aids, and instructional artifacts.
• Data Integrity & Operations Excellence
• Compliance Oversight: Coordinate and track the timely completion of credentialing paperwork, Learning Management System (LMS) modules, system access provisions, and the shipping/receiving of physical supplies.
• Data Accuracy: Maintain precise records, complete accurate data entry across tracking systems, and generate complex operational reports to present pipeline health data to internal and external stakeholders.
• Continuous Improvement: Assess onboarding workflows to identify bottlenecks, proposing and implementing measurable process enhancements.

Required Qualifications

• Experience: 4+ years of experience working in a high-volume administrative or operational function managing competing priorities under pressure.
• Project & Time Management: Superb prioritization, time-management, and organizational skills with an impeccable attention to detail.
• Communication & EQ: High emotional intelligence with a proven ability to navigate high-touch discussions and build collaborative relationships with clinical providers and corporate leadership.
• Data & Technical Literacy: Experience running complex reports and presenting data to stakeholders. Basic to intermediate proficiency in digital workspaces (Google Workspace/Google Office, Microsoft Office Suite).
• Data Entry: Proven track record of accurate, high-volume data entry and digital record maintenance.

Preferred Qualifications

• Industry Domain: Direct prior experience with healthcare provider onboarding, medical credentialing workflows, or general corporate talent onboarding.
• Software Systems: Familiarity with Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS), credentialing software, or Salesforce is a strong plus.
• Environment: Experience working and collaborating within a virtual or remote team environment.

Education Requirement

• Bachelor’s Degree in Business, Healthcare Administration, or a related field; OR equivalent related professional experience.
