Job Description

OUR MISSION AND PERFORMANCE EXPECTATIONS
At Sevita, we believe that everyone deserves to live well. For more than 50 years, our team members have provided home and community-based health care for adults, children, and their families across the United States. Our extraordinary team offers innovative, quality services and support that lead to growth and new opportunities for the people we serve and for our employees.

The Senior Director, Business Transformation leads transformation initiatives and serves as the operational leader of the Integration Management Office (IMO) function, with primary accountability for planning and executing the integration of a large-scale acquisition into Sevita’s operating model. This role owns the transformation and integration portfolio end to end: establishing integration governance, orchestrating cross-functional workstreams (Operations, Finance, HR, IT, Quality, Legal, and Payor/Network), driving synergy identification and value capture, and redesigning processes and organizational structures to create a unified, scalable operating platform. The Senior Director partners directly with the operating group leadership team, functional centers of excellence and enterprise leadership on strategic planning, Day 1 readiness, integration milestone execution, and long-term operating model transformation, bringing rigorous process engineering discipline — root-cause analysis, process redesign, change management, and performance measurement — to ensure transformation outcomes are achieved, sustained, and adopted across the enterprise.

• Synergy & Value Capture: Drives identification, validation, and capture of cost and revenue synergies; builds baselines and tracking mechanisms in partnership with Finance; reports value-capture progress to executive leadership and course-corrects where results lag targets.

• Process Engineering & Change Management: Conducts root-cause analysis, process mapping, and gap identification to inform transformation design; develops implementation strategies including rollout plans, field training, and communication plans; manages change through documentation, training, and adoption measurement to achieve maximum adoption across legacy and acquired organizations.

• Data Analysis & Executive Reporting: Collects, analyzes, and interprets operational, financial, and integration data to inform decisions; prepares and presents integration scorecards, transformation performance reports, and executive briefings to a broad and targeted audience, including the most senior executives in the company.

• Documentation, Compliance & M&A Readiness: Maintains accurate and up-to-date integration and process documentation, including integration playbooks, standard operating procedures (SOPs), and work instructions; ensures all processes are documented and compliant with company policies, industry standards, and regulatory requirements; contributes diligence insights and integration readiness assessments for prospective future acquisitions.
