Allara is expanding our footprint and volume rapidly, and Payer Operations is the engine that keeps us growing, enrollment, credentialing, and the payer-side processes that let clinicians see patients. The Manager of Credentialing and Payer Operations runs that engine day to day: it owns the throughput, quality, and reliability of payer operations as volume scales, and builds a team that can absorb that growth without a proportional increase in headcount or manual work. Location: Hybrid (NYC) or Remote. We value in-person collaboration and aim for at least three days per week in our NYC office, with flexibility as needed.
