The Senior Implementation Manager, Strategic Partnerships, reporting to the Director, Implementation, will independently lead the onboarding and launch of Spring Health’s most complex strategic partnerships. These partnerships may include integration, referral, reseller, payer or carrier, wellbeing rewards, and other partner models. You will translate the partnership strategy into a clear joint operating model and manage delivery from the point at which scope and solution design are defined through launch, stabilization, and transition to steady-state ownership.

You will partner closely with a Solution Engineer to ensure requirements, scope, and solution decisions are sufficiently defined before execution, and with a Technical Implementation Manager on data integrations, testing, and technical readiness. This role is designed for a strategic project leader who brings strong implementation discipline, sound judgment amid ambiguity, and the influence to align stakeholders across multiple organizations.

What you’ll do:

• Lead end-to-end project management for complex, high-impact strategic partnership implementations, independently establishing the delivery approach, governance, milestones, and path to launch.
• Serve as the primary implementation contact and trusted delivery partner across Spring Health and partner teams, building strong relationships with senior business, operational, and technical stakeholders.
• Translate the commercial partnership into a practical joint operating model, including roles, handoffs, decision rights, communication cadences, escalation paths, launch criteria, and measures of success.
• Partner closely with the Solution Engineer to confirm that requirements, solution design, acceptance criteria, dependencies, and change-control expectations are clear before and throughout delivery.
• Partner closely with the Technical Implementation Manager to coordinate data integrations, technical dependencies, testing, issue resolution, and readiness without taking ownership away from the technical workstream lead.
• Manage integrated project plans and interdependent business, operational, and technical work streams across both organizations, synthesizing status, decisions, dependencies, and risks for delivery teams and senior leaders. Anticipate partnership launch risks, clarify ownership when responsibilities are ambiguous, make timely decisions with incomplete information, and drive mitigation and escalation through resolution.
• Adapt the implementation approach to different partner models while converting recurring patterns, requirements, and risks into scalable operating models, playbooks, templates, and governance standards.
• Use data, automation, and AI-enabled practices to improve portfolio visibility, execution quality, decision-making, and the scalability of strategic partnership implementations.

What success looks like:

• Strategic partnerships launch on time with a clear joint operating model, accountable owners, and no surprises. Spring Health and partner stakeholders have trusted relationships, clear governance, and shared confidence in launch readiness and ongoing operations.
• Business, operational, and technical dependencies are…
