Licensing and Credentialing Manager

Brightline is redefining what pediatric behavioral health care looks like for families across the country. None of that reach matters if a provider cannot legally practice or a payer will not pay the claim. As Manager, Licensing & Credentialing, you own the machinery that keeps every provider licensed, enrolled, and revenue-ready across every state and every payer network Brightline works with. This is a remote role with no direct reports, and it is designed as a high-level individual contributor position. Why This Role This is the role where precision becomes something families actually feel. Every provider you get licensed and credentialed faster is a family that gets care sooner, and every payer relationship you strengthen is revenue Brightline has already earned finally landing where it belongs. You will own the licensing vendor relationship and its budget, direct how that vendor performs rather than simply tracking it, and run payer credentialing end to end. You will keep every roster airtight and turn slow enrollments into fast ones through relationships you build yourself. You will sit at the table with Contracting, Revenue Cycle, Compliance, Clinical Operations, and Legal, representing this function as someone leadership counts on for answers. And you will own the metrics that prove it is all working, while designing the processes that let this function scale as Brightline continues to grow. If you want a role where precision is the whole point and the impact is easy to see, this is it.
