About the Role

FreedomCare is a healthcare company that has been dedicated to revolutionizing the home care industry since 2016. We support our patients by ensuring they have the power to choose a caregiver who will care for them in the comfort of their own homes. Our mission spans coast to coast, supporting patients across the U.S. We pride ourselves on our values which drive the level of care that we deliver to our patients: <ul> <li style="font-weight: 400;">Here For You (An attitude of service, empathy, and availability)</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;">Own It (Drive and ownership)</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;">Do the Right Thing (High integrity)</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;">Be Positive (Great attitude and a can-do positive approach to challenges)</li> </ul> Join our team and make a positive impact on the lives of others! We are looking for a Leadership Development Program Manager for our Business Optimization team.  This role is remote with potential travel to our main office in NY and/or the FreedomCare hub closest to you. Department & Position Overview: FreedomCare is at an inflection point. Our leaders have scaled the organization by navigating ambiguity, operating with limited structure, and collaborating across functions. As FreedomCare continues to grow, we are making a deliberate investment in ensuring our leaders are as capable of scaling the business as they have been building it.  The Leadership Development Program Manager will build the enterprise framework that makes this possible. The mandate is not simply to create more training. The initial priority will be to strengthen leadership capability across existing levels, from Team Leads through senior leadership, and embed leadership development across the leader lifecycle, from selection through advancement.  The broader opportunity is to create an adaptable system that can also support individual contributors preparing to lead for the first time.  This role will define a practical leadership philosophy rooted in accountability, sound judgment, cross-functional partnership, and operational excellence.     This is an opportunity for an experienced leadership development professional to build a robust enterprise capability from the ground up.  Success in this role requires earning credibility with senior and operational leaders, translating business priorities into practical leadership solutions that improve performance.  Within the first year, this role will establish the operating system that shapes how leaders are selected, developed, and prepared for greater responsibility across FreedomCare.
