Principal Talent Partner, Epic & Access Operations

Responsibilities

• The best Epic and patient access talent rarely applies. Your job is to know where they are, and to know this space well enough to earn the conversation.
• You'll operate with significant independence, push back when something doesn't add up, and think of yourself as an extension of the consulting leadership team - not a service provider to it.
• Proactively identify and build relationships with senior Epic professionals and health system access operations leaders whose skills would augment our team , independent of open requisitions - prioritizing people at the architect level and above.
• Maintain a warm, active network over years, with disciplined tracking and communication so your work is visible to others even when it's still in progress.
• Engage credibly with senior-level talent by speaking knowledgeably about patient access, Epic workflows, clinical-technical landscapes, and health system operations - earning trust through substance.
• Advise internal leaders on talent timing: whether to move quickly on a strong candidate or invest in a longer-term relationship for a future need.
• Represent Hummingbird's mission and work in ways that resonate with experienced healthcare professionals who are selective about who gets their attention.
• Think critically through ambiguous talent puzzles - figuring out who the right person is, how their goals and Hummingbird's needs intersect, and how to reach them in ways that don't feel transactional.
• Make recommendations with conviction and the willingness to flex - bring a clear point of view, disagree openly when needed, and commit when a decision is made.
• Build or identify a system for tracking pipeline activity and relationship status, and share your work openly with the team - including the messy, in-progress parts.
• Contribute to broader talent strategy conversations, bringing a peer-level perspective to how Hummingbird attracts and thinks about senior healthcare talent.
