People Operational Manager-Urgent

on
Possible is seeking additional People Operations Managers to advance our management systems and organizational culture and to oversee people operations functions for Possible’s team in Achham and Dolakha districts, Nepal.
The Achham-based People Operations Manager will be joining a team of over 120+ full-time staff at our clinical and administrative hub in the Far-West, Bayalpata Hospital. 
The Dolakha-based People Operations Manager will be joining a small but quickly growing team in our second district, where we are rebuilding healthcare infrastructure following the devastating earthquakes of April and May 2015. 
Applications for both positions are being accepted on an immediate, rolling basis for Nepali candidates.
The organization: Possible
Possible is a nonprofit healthcare company that delivers high-quality, low-cost healthcare to the world’s poor. We are pioneering a new approach, called durable healthcare, that brings together the best of private, public, and philanthropic models. Since 2008, Possible has treated over 275,000 patients in rural Nepal through government hospitals, clinics, community health workers, and a referral network.

The opportunity: Are you the right fit?
We are looking for entrepreneurial leaders who will serve as our primary ambassadors and advocates for Possible’sFor-Impact Culture Code and management and performance philosophies in Achham and Dolakha districts. Strong preference will be given to those who can prove they can operate in fast-growth environments with limited resources.
Most importantly, your orientation toward the work should match well with our operating values, captured by our For-Impact Culture Code.
Lastly, you’re a believer, not an employee. And you’re looking for an opportunity to use your time and energy to transform an early stage organization and impact hundreds of thousands of lives.
Must Haves:
  1. Commitment to Possible’s Culture & Vision: The People Operations Manager is the primary ambassador and advocate for Possible’s For-Impact Culture Code and management philosophy in the district(s) in which they work. They need to lead by example in their own conduct, hold others accountable when they fall short, and have an unshakeable commitment to the culture we are trying to build even in the face of resistance and doubt. 
  2. Superior Systems-Building Skills: The People Operations Manager is charged with designing, executing, and coaching others on smart systems (i.e. Asana, BambooHR, SOPs, etc.), and so must be incredibly savvy in their ability both to design smart systems and train others effectively.
  3. Excellent Time & Project Management Abilities: The People Operations Manager will have a large number of demands on their time and significant independence. They must be adept at managing their time and energy, accurately setting expectations with teammates, prioritizing effectively, and mapping out strategies for driving projects to completion.
  4. Courage: The People Operations Manager is responsible first and foremost for putting our patients first, and second, for putting the team as a whole above the self or any single individual. Difficult decisions will inevitably arise; the People Operations Manager must have the courage to do what’s best for our patients and best for the organization in every case.
  5. Humility: One of our core principles at Possible is "We challenge conventional thinking," and People Operations is no exception. To be succesful in People Operations at Possible, the People Operations Manager must approach their work with humility, an open mind, a customer service orientation towards their teammates, and an eagerness to learn (or unlearn!) what People Operations means as the organization evolves.
