VP of Innovation & AI

Parasol Alliance | Remote | Full-Time | ~30% Travel | Reports to CEO

Parasol Alliance is an award-winning Managed Services Provider (MSP) exclusively serving the senior living industry. We've earned 24 Best & Brightest workplace awards and have been named a Top 501 MSP in the world by Channel Futures — five years running. We move fast, think big, and genuinely care about our people and the communities we serve.
