Responsibilities

Provide overall leadership for subcontract program management activities and the orderly transition out of all RHRP services, ensuring plans, milestones, resources, communications, and execution activities are aligned with program and contract objectives.
Own the subcontract program management operating framework, including governance, performance management, issue escalation, action-item accountability, financial oversight, and standards for subcontractor execution. Establish and refine procedures and operating practices as program requirements, contract conditions, and transition needs evolve.
Serve as the senior internal leader and primary escalation point for significant subcontractor matters, including executive-level performance issues, commercial or contractual concerns, service delivery disruptions, corrective actions, and matters requiring coordination across multiple organizational functions.
Direct transition-out strategy and execution for all RHRP workstreams, including development and management of transition plans, timelines, dependencies, decision points, resource requirements, communications, knowledge transfer, records, closeout activities, and disposition of outstanding contractual or operational obligations.
Lead cross-functional execution with Contracts, Finance, Provider Relations, Information Technology, Facilities, Human Resources, program operations, and other stakeholders to coordinate subcontractor performance and transition activities and to resolve complex issues that could affect schedule, cost, service continuity, compliance, or customer commitments.
Partner with Contracts and other functional leaders on subcontract agreements, statements of work, modifications, closeout requirements, and transition actions. Ensure contractual terms, obligations, deliverables, and acceptance criteria are understood and incorporated into execution and transition plans.
Engage directly with subcontractor executives and senior customer or government representatives on significant contractual, operational, performance, and transition matters. Conduct senior-level briefings, governance reviews, and decision meetings and ensure clear ownership and timely resolution of commitments.
Hold subcontractors accountable for performance against established cost, schedule, quality, service, compliance, and customer requirements. Direct performance reviews, corrective action plans, escalation pathways, and remediation efforts for material deficiencies or recurring issues.
Direct continuous improvement and transition-readiness activities using performance data, cost trends, customer feedback, audit results, lessons learned, and operational experience to strengthen execution and reduce disruption during transition out.
Provide senior-level recommendations and decision support to program and company leadership on subcontract strategy, transition sequencing, resource requirements, material issues, and options that affect program performance, contractual commitments, or business outcomes.
Maintain awareness of material program and subcontract risks that could affect transition or contract performance; coordinate with the program risk-management process to identify, escalate, mitigate, and communicate significant risks without serving as the primary program risk owner.
Provide executive reporting on subcontractor performance, transition status, significant issues, financial trends, key decisions, and material risks. Prepare and present senior-level briefings, presentations, and other decision-support materials for program and company leadership.
Perform other duties and responsibilities as assigned.
