  • Connect NiCE AI capabilities to business goals, operational KPIs, and service improvement opportunities 
  • Help customers and internal teams understand practical considerations for AI adoption in highly sensitive and regulated patient environments 

Support Strategic Customer and Internal Engagements 

  • Participate in executive briefings, workshops, QBRs, and strategic account conversations as an industry advisor 
  • Support account planning and adoption conversations with industry-specific insight and executive-ready recommendations 
  • Help shape practical, high-impact AI narratives for healthcare provider customers 

Raise Industry Readiness Across NiCE 

  • Educate consultants, leaders, and cross-functional teams on provider trends, patient service models, AI opportunities, and operational realities 
  • Contribute to industry playbooks, messaging, point of view content, and best practices 
  • Surface recurring customer needs, market shifts, and industry opportunities to product, strategy, and adoption leaders 

Success Measures 

Success in this role will be measured by: 

  • Improved industry credibility in healthcare provider customer engagements 
  • Stronger alignment between NiCE AI solutions and healthcare provider priorities 
  • Higher quality industry-specific adoption strategies, use case recommendations, and executive narratives 
  • Increased internal readiness and fluency in healthcare provider and AI-related conversations 
  • Meaningful contribution to customer outcomes, workflow improvement, and AI value realization 

Required Qualifications 

  • 12+ years of experience in healthcare provider operations, patient access, contact center leadership, CX transformation, digital health servicing, consulting, or industry advisory 
  • Deep expertise in one or more provider segments such as health systems, hospitals, ambulatory networks, physician groups, academic medical centers, or integrated delivery networks 
  • Demonstrated experience advising on, implementing, or operationalizing AI and automation use cases within healthcare provider service or operations environments 
  • Strong understanding of patient access, contact center, and service operations in provider environments

  • Strong executive communication, facilitation, and consulting skills 
  • Proven ability to influence senior stakeholders and act as a trusted advisor 
  • Willingness to travel as needed 

Preferred Qualifications 

  • Experience working with large enterprise healthcare provider organizations 
  • Experience in patient access transformation, self-service, workflow redesign, or operational excellence

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
