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.

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.

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.

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.

Support leadership with special projects, reporting, and operational planning.

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.
