Position Summary:

The US Oncology Practice Technology Director is a senior technology individual contributor role, responsible for partnering on practice technology strategy and driving outcomes across a defined set of oncology practices. The Director partners closely with the RVP Technology to translate regional and enterprise technology strategies into actionable plans, operational delivery, and measurable outcomes at the practice level.

This role serves as a trusted technology advisor to practice executives and operational leaders, ensuring technology initiatives improve clinical workflows, operational efficiency, and patient experience while maintaining stability, compliance, and cost discipline. The Director operates with high autonomy, leads complex initiatives through influence, and integrates work across infrastructure, clinical applications, cybersecurity, vendors, and operations. Success requires strong healthcare technology expertise, the ability to manage complexity across multiple practices, and the capability to lead through others without direct authority.

Key Responsibilities:

Practice Technology Leadership & Partnership

• Serve as the primary technology leader for assigned oncology practices or sub region, acting as the day to day technology partner to practice executives and operational leaders.
• Represent practice needs, risks, and priorities to the RVP Technology and enterprise partners, ensuring alignment with US Oncology and McKesson standards.

Strategy Execution & Roadmap Delivery

• Translate US Oncology and regional technology strategies into practice-level roadmaps and execution plans, balancing modernization, operational readiness, cost, and risk.
• Identify sequencing dependencies, readiness gaps, and mitigation plans to ensure successful delivery.

Practice Modernization & Infrastructure Enablement

• Lead execution of practice-level infrastructure modernization, cloud transitions, and decommissioning of legacy on prem solutions in alignment with regional plans.
• Coordinate across infrastructure, application, and vendor teams to ensure smooth transitions with minimal disruption to care delivery.

Operational Stability & Incident Leadership

• Own service stability for assigned practices, leading incident response, executive communications, root cause analysis, and corrective action tracking.
• Partner with operations and service management teams to reduce repeat incidents and improve reliability.

Change Management & Risk Governance

• Act as a practice-level change sponsor, supporting change intake, risk reviews, exception requests, and remediation plans.
• Ensure changes balance patient safety, regulatory compliance, and operational continuity.

Vendor & Solution Enablement

• Support vendor selection, implementation planning, escalation management, and performance reviews for clinical, revenue cycle, infrastructure, and AI-enabled solutions.
• Partner with Vendor Management and Procurement to ensure solutions align with enterprise standards and contractual expectations.

New Solution Intake & Business Case Support

• Oversee intake evaluation, and prioritization of new technology solutions - including workflow analysis, product comparison, market scans, and business case development - before enterprise approval for solutions requested by assigned practices or sub-region.

Financial Stewardship & Cost Transparency

• Partner with Finance and Portfolio teams to validate practice-level cost allocations, explain charge mechanics, and support transparent communications with practice leaders.
• Monitor spend against approved plans and surface risks or variances to the RVP.

Clinical Workflow & Patient Impact Oversight

• Ensure technology initiatives support or improve clinical workflows, patient access, and care delivery, escalating concerns when solutions introduce undue burden.

Cybersecurity & Compliance Support

• Drive execution of cyber hardening and compliance initiatives at the practice level, ensuring remediation timelines are met and risks are clearly documented.

Communications & Executive Messaging

• Develop and deliver clear, executive-ready communications for practice leaders regarding timelines, risks, funding, and technology direction.
• Prepare updates and briefing materials for the RVP Technology and regional leadership.

Project & Portfolio Execution

• Ensure initiatives are properly staffed, sequenced, and governed, partnering with PMO and Operations teams to manage delivery risks.
• Hold delivery teams accountable for commitments within assigned scope.

Practice Transitions & Growth Support

• Support practice acquisitions, divestitures, and new site openings, ensuring technology readiness and continuity of care.

Continuous Improvement & Standards Adoption

• Drive adoption of standardized operating models, documentation, and service practices to reduce variability and improve the practice experience.

Minimum Requirements:
