Government Business Project Manager

Quest Analytics is a leading healthcare technology company focused on improving provider network management and helping healthcare organizations ensure their members have access to the care they need. Our technology, data, and expertise support health plans, healthcare organizations, and government agencies as they navigate complex provider network, regulatory, and compliance requirements.

As Quest Analytics continues to expand its work with federal and state government organizations, we are helping solve increasingly complex challenges through innovative technology, data-driven solutions, and strong partnerships. This growth creates an exciting opportunity to help shape how we successfully deliver and scale government programs across new markets and jurisdictions.

The Government Business Project Manager will lead the planning, coordination, and execution of high-impact government implementation projects, partnering across Product, Engineering, Client Services, Regulatory, and executive leadership. This role is ideal for someone who thrives in complex environments, knows how to turn broad requirements into actionable plans, and is comfortable holding teams accountable to commitments.

This is not a role focused solely on tracking status or facilitating meetings. We are looking for someone who will actively drive the work forward, surface risks early, resolve ambiguity, and ensure that projects stay on track from initial planning through go-live and steady-state operations.

The right person will bring a strong understanding of government healthcare environments, particularly CMS, Medicare, Medicaid, or related state and federal programs, and will be able to quickly understand how business, regulatory, product, and technology requirements come together.

• Own project delivery for assigned federal and state government initiatives from planning through implementation, go-live, and transition to steady-state operations.
• Translate regulatory and business requirements into clear project plans, milestones, deliverables, owners, and timelines.
• Coordinate cross-functional work across Product, Engineering, Client Services, Regulatory, and other internal teams.
• Create accountability for commitments, dependencies, and deadlines while maintaining strong working relationships across teams.
• Manage project scope, timelines, and budget considerations, identifying tradeoffs and risks before they impact delivery.

• Identify barriers early and actively drive them toward resolution.
• Bring clarity to ambiguous requirements, competing priorities, and unclear ownership.
• Develop mitigation plans for project risks and manage dependencies across multiple workstreams.
• Escalate issues at the right time and with the right level of context and recommended action.
• Maintain RAID logs and other project governance tools to ensure risks, assumptions, issues, and dependencies remain visible and actionable.
• Facilitate project governance and executive steering discussions as needed.

• Build and maintain measurable tracking systems that provide clear visibility into project health, milestones, requirements, dependencies, and risks.
• Prepare executive dashboards and project health reporting for senior leadership.
• Provide data-driven updates that communicate not only where a project stands, but what needs to happen next to keep it moving.
• Ensure stakeholders have the information they need to make timely decisions.

• Use project management methodologies and tools to improve planning, coordination, and execution.
• Leverage AI-enabled tools such as Microsoft Copilot, ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or similar technologies to accelerate project planning, reporting, meeting summaries, documentation, risk identification, and status synthesis.
• Identify opportunities to improve how project information is captured, communicated, and scaled across multiple government initiatives.

• Provide clear, proactive, and accurate project updates to clients and external stakeholders.
• Build confidence by anticipating issues internally and minimizing surprises during client interactions.
• Communicate effectively with technical teams, business leaders, government stakeholders, and executive leadership.
• Represent Quest Analytics professionally in client and stakeholder interactions.
