Position Summary

AIMS Force is seeking a highly organized, proactive, and relationship-driven Healthcare Operations Manager to support healthcare staffing operations across federal and commercial healthcare contracts.

This role will serve as a key operational bridge between recruitment, HR, credentialing, security, project management, employees, and government customers. The Healthcare Operations Manager will help ensure that candidates move smoothly from offer acceptance through onboarding, credentialing, security processing, compliance completion, and successful contract start.

This is not a basic administrative role. We are looking for someone who can manage projects, build trust with employees, communicate professionally with government customers, solve problems, and help create scalable operational systems as AIMS Force continues to grow.

Key Responsibilities

Project Operations & Contract Support

• Support post-award transition and contract startup activities.

• Support contract employees throughout the assignment lifecycle.
• Help ensure staffing commitments, start dates, and compliance requirements are met.

Credentialing & Compliance

• Oversee credentialing progress for healthcare providers and support staff.
• Track licenses, certifications, immunizations, training, and required documentation.
• Ensure credentialing packets are complete, accurate, and submitted on time.
• Monitor expiration dates and renewal deadlines.
• Maintain audit-ready credentialing and compliance documentation.

Security & Government Onboarding

• Coordinate security packet completion, fingerprinting, background processing, base access, CAC-related onboarding, and other government access requirements.
• Communicate with employees and government security offices regarding pending items.
• Track security status and identify delays that may impact start dates.
• Ensure sensitive documents and PII are handled securely and professionally.

Recruitment Operations Support

• Partner with recruiters after candidate selection to support final closing and transition to onboarding.
• Conduct final pre-employment calls to confirm candidate interest, compensation, availability, start date, and expectations.
• Help reduce candidate fall-off between offer acceptance and first day of work.
• Coordinate handoff from recruitment to onboarding and operations.
• Track candidate readiness through first day confirmation.

Employee Relations & Retention

• Serve as a trusted operational contact for employees.
• Conduct welcome calls, check-ins, and follow-ups with contract employees.
• Help resolve employee concerns professionally and timely.
• Support difficult conversations when needed.
• Build employee trust and improve retention.
• Escalate HR-related matters to the HR team as appropriate.

Government Customer & COR Coordination

• Communicate professionally with CORs, KOs, security offices, department leads, and other government contacts as appropriate.
• Support contract startup meetings, transition planning, and operational follow-up.
• Help maintain strong customer relationships through timely communication and problem-solving.
• Escalate sensitive or contractual matters to leadership.

Process Improvement & Leadership Support

• Help develop SOPs, checklists, workflows, and scalable systems.
• Identify process gaps and recommend improvements.
• Coordinate with offshore administrative support teams for non-sensitive tasks.
• Provide quality control and oversight for assigned operational workflows.
• Support leadership with special projects, reporting, and operational planning.

Qualifications

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
• Strong follow-up, organization, multitasking, and problem-solving ability.
• Comfortable handling confidential employee information and PII.
• Able to work independently in a remote environment.
• Prior military, retired military, or military spouse background preferred but not required.

Ideal Candidate

The ideal candidate is someone who:

• Takes ownership without needing constant supervision.
• Communicates clearly and professionally.
• Can manage multiple moving pieces at once.
• Is comfortable with both employees and government customers.
• Can handle difficult conversations with professionalism.
• Understands the importance of documentation, compliance, and follow-up.
• Wants to grow with a fast-growing healthcare government contracting company.

Why This Role Matters

This role is critical to AIMS Force's ability to execute contracts successfully. The Healthcare Operations Manager will help ensure that employees are onboarded properly, credentialing and security requirements are completed on time, customer relationships remain strong, and operational issues are resolved before they become contract problems.

Compensation

Competitive salary based on experience, with opportunity for growth as the operations team expands.

Work Location

This is a remote position. Due to the sensitive nature of credentialing, security processing, and employee documentation, this position must be performed by a U.S.-based employee.
