About the Role:
As a Fortune 5 business, we’re one of the world’s leading healthcare companies. There are no limits here on the resources you’ll have or the challenges you’ll encounter.
We have been supporting global healthcare systems from Ireland and the UK for more than 20 years, building a dynamic and diverse team of more than 2,100 talented individuals. With a continued record of growth and stability, we're on the constant lookout for fresh talent to join our expanding teams.
Blue Platform is a UHG enterprise data-centric platform that integrates and unifies proprietary and 3rd party data to provide users with easy-to-access insights to drive sustainable growth. This is a C-level priority for UHG to build out the “third leg” of the business, complementing our existing strengths in UHC and Optum. It will involve building strong cross-group, cross-functional collaboration with a wide variety of stakeholders and delivering a viable growth platform for 2024 and beyond.
The Innovation and Growth Platforms and the Blue Program Leadership are looking for a Senior Manager, Technical Product Management to support the Blue Platform build and work closely with the engineering and data teams. We are looking for an ambitious, motivated candidate who is excited to drive one of the company’s biggest strategic priorities.
This role will report to the Sr Director – Blue Product and will drive the execution of the roadmap for the Blue Platform, defining the detailed technical requirements for the platform and its interfaces with other capabilities across the organization. This role will work closely with the data, engineering and user experience teams to integrate and align the requirements, specifications and constraints of each element of the platform. They will also need to help identify gaps in resources, technology, or capabilities required, and work with the Blue Program Leadership to identify and implement solutions.
Careers with Optum offer flexible work arrangements and individuals who live and work in the Republic of Ireland will have the opportunity to split their monthly work hours between our Dublin or Letterkenny and telecommuting from a home-based office in a hybrid work model.
Primary Responsibilities:
You will be rewarded and recognised for your performance in an environment that will challenge you and give you clear direction on what it takes to succeed in your role, as well as providing development for other roles you may be interested in. Required Qualifications:
All telecommuters will be required to adhere to the United Health Group’s Telecommuter Policy.
At United Health Group, our mission is to help people live healthier lives and make the health system work better for everyone. We believe everyone–of every race, gender, sexuality, age, location and income–deserves the opportunity to live their healthiest life. Today, however, there are still far too many barriers to good health which are disproportionately experienced by people of color, historically marginalised groups and those with lower incomes. We are committed to mitigating our impact on the environment and enabling and delivering equitable care that addresses health disparities and improves health outcomes — an enterprise priority reflected in our mission.
