Manager, Clinical Operations

Felix Healthcare Team Leader Opportunity

Founded in 2019, Felix is a digital healthcare company that puts the patient in control of their own health and wellbeing. We're passionate about building technology and beautiful customer experiences to make healthcare more accessible (and more enjoyable) for all Canadians.

Felix is Canada's first end-to-end healthcare experience, providing online treatment, prescription delivery and ongoing care. We deliver care across a growing range of daily health categories such as weight loss, birth control, menopause, erectile dysfunction, acne, longevity and more.

The Role

We're looking for an experienced people manager to lead our fast-growing Medical Office Assistant (MOA) team. The team is the first point of contact for our healthcare providers on platform and workflow questions, and supports patients and healthcare providers 7 days a week across lab results and follow-ups, referrals, insurance forms and records, prescription and pharmacy queries. We also help our healthcare providers with vacation coverage, patient reassignments and payouts.

You'll directly manage members of the MOA team and coach and develop our Team Leads and Senior MOAs. Day to day, you'll help run the team, from schedules and coverage to quality, service levels and performance, using data to guide your decisions. Additionally, you will prepare the team for new launches, optimize operational workflows, and support strategic initiatives to improve the patient and provider experience. This role reports to the Senior Manager, Clinical Operations, and works closely with our Manager, MOA Operations. How responsibilities are split across the leadership team will shift as the team grows. This is a key role on our clinical operations team. You'll work cross-functionally with Medical Leadership, healthcare providers, customer support, pharmacy, compliance, data and product teams, maintain quality of care and patient confidentiality, and promote our patient-centric mission of empowering Canadians to take control of their health and well-being.
