About The Position

At Diverge Health we are passionate about improving health access and outcomes for those most in need. We partner with primary care providers to improve the engagement and management of their Medicaid patients, offering independent practices with specialized resources and clinical programs to close gaps in care. Our teams work to address medical, social and behavioral patient needs, lowering healthcare costs and improving patient lives. Guided by our core values of humility, continuous learning and feeling the weight, our team is on a mission to strengthen communities from within, unlocking people's ability to live their healthiest lives. We're looking for an Integration Project Manager to join our team! You'll own coordination, planning, and execution of a structured, multi-phase integration already underway, a focused, high-impact role for someone who can step into a moving process, get oriented fast, and drive execution with precision. If you bring disciplined project management and genuine change management depth, we want to hear from you.

Requirements

PMP certification or equivalent project management credential.
3+ years of project management experience, including multiple (2+) end-to-end M&A integrations.
Proficiency in modern project management tooling, including Aha!, Microsoft Project, and SharePoint.
Comfort with high-availability expectations, including responsiveness during evenings and weekends for escalations.
Healthcare industry experience, particularly in value-based care, technology-enablement clinical services companies, Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs), or managed care organizations.

Nice To Haves

Consulting background or experience working in a consulting-adjacent environment.
Systems thinking, with genuine comfort with complexity, interdependencies, and operating without complete information.
Experience bridging technology strategy and operational execution, including partnering closely with technology leaders to align product and systems decisions with broader integration goals.
Chicago-based with availability for regular in-person presence preferred.

Responsibilities

Serve as the operational backbone of the merger integration effort, keeping workstreams on track, enabling executives to stay at the right altitude, and ensuring both sides of the transaction experience the integration as thoughtful, organized, and human.
Orient quickly to the existing plan, workstream owners, and stakeholders, and drive pre-close milestones to completion alongside our Chief of Staff, who leads this effort.
Build detailed 2026 execution plans across all workstreams and maintain them as a living document, with clear ownership, tracked milestones, and updates as priorities and complexity shift.
Track status across workstreams and facilitate workgroup meetings, proactively surfacing risks and blockers, driving decisions, and documenting outcomes to keep stakeholders aligned and accountable.
Build and execute a change management strategy across both organizations.
Deliver crisp, executive-ready updates and materials for steering committee and leadership reviews, reducing burden on leadership rather than adding to it.
Operate at both altitudes, setting direction at the program level while rolling up your sleeves to execute directly when a task needs it.
Partner with leadership team members to shape the 2027 roadmap, spotting gaps in readiness and coordination as the integration matures.
