We need 15+ years of experienced PROJECT MANAGER.

Program Manager/PMO Lead needed to bring substantial program management experience to lead the IDPH PMO, understanding how the PMO can impact the organization strategically, managing that organizational impact, and continuing to improve processes.

Public health is a partnership of local public health, the Iowa Department of Public Health (IDPH), non-profit organizations, health care providers, policymakers, businesses, and many others working together to protect and improve the health of Iowans. Public health strives to improve the quality of life for all Iowans by assuring access to evidence-based population-health programs, services and activities in the following areas:

• Promote healthy living;
• Prevent injuries and violence;
• Protect against environmental hazards;
• Assure access to quality health services;
• Prevent epidemics and the spread of disease;
• Improve and support public health performance; and
• Prepare for, respond to, and recover from emergencies.

The recent establishment of the Project Management Office (PMO) has helped centralize existing projects throughout the Department, supply the Department with a governed project portfolio, establish PMO project processes, and aid in a culture shift through training, engagement, and PMO successes. The IDPH is seeking a strong PMO leader to guide, mentor, and lead the project management office. Success in this role will require a time-tested, fully dedicated resource who can pull from a great deal of experience to deliver IDPH a significant win across the Department.
