Sr. Major Incident Manager

The Major Incident Manager (MIM) for a Healthcare IT Enterprise Operations Center (EOC) is a high-impact leadership role responsible for the end-to-end management of critical IT service disruptions that affect patient care, clinical workflows, and hospital operations. This is senior level, decision authority role within Core Tech, responsible for leading enterprise-level, Tier 1 incidents across the healthcare environment. This role goes beyond traditional incident coordination and requires command authority, strong executive communication, and deep understanding of healthcare IT operations, including infrastructure, networking, clinical imaging, and EHR access. This role exists because the current incident model is not meeting enterprise needs and requires experienced leadership to reset and stabilize Tier 1 incident response across multiple facilities. This role is accountable for incident outcomes, not coordination alone. Role Summary: The Major Incident Manager acts as the "Incident Commander," (single point of command) driving the swift restoration of critical healthcare services (e.g., EHR access, diagnostic imaging, and network connectivity) while maintaining transparent communication with executive leadership and clinical stakeholders. This role is responsible for incident outcomes, not just processes.
