    The Senior Policy Advisor performs senior-level research, complex policy analysis, cross-functional project management and coordination to support the OIG's mission, vision, values and core functions.

    In partnership with OIG core functional areas, the Senior Policy Advisor identifies, evaluates and proposes new work, formulating strategic, data-informed recommendations.

    The Senior Policy Advisor develops and presents briefing documents, reports and presentations for OIG leadership, develops and administers trainings to OIG and other HHS staff and third parties, and develops reference materials concerning key topics.

    The Senior Policy Advisor directs and participates in continuous program and process improvement activities.

    (15%) This position responds to inquiries from OIG and other HHS staff that must be timely and tracked. Responses require collaboration with various OIG areas and may also require in-depth research relating to Medicaid policy and/or programs. Responses must be accurate, clear and concise.

    (10%) This position develops trainings and other reference materials for OIG and other HHS staff. In addition, this position represents the OIG on internal and external workgroups and meetings.

    (5%) This position is responsible for tracking and verifying metrics related to Policy and Strategic Initiatives work and performs other duties, as assigned. Keeps manager informed as required or as necessary.

    Knowledge Skills Abilities:
    Knowledge of Texas Medicaid programs.
    Knowledge of state and federal statutes, regulations, policies, and other guidance relevant to Texas Medicaid programs.

    Skills researching, analyzing, and interpreting complex federal and state statutes, regulations, contracts and policies.
    Skills managing high-profile, cross-functional projects.
    Skills synthesizing, analyzing, and relaying information in easily understandable and concise documents and oral presentations.

    Skills collaborating with teams to develop recommendations for OIG leadership's consideration that are attainable, reasonable, and likely to meet the goals and expected outcomes of the initiatives.

    Skills establishing and maintaining effective and supportive working relationships with all levels of staff.
    Skills using office equipment and software (e.g., Microsoft Office suite).

    Ability to learn and reason through complex, nebulous subject matter, and distill research into pragmatic, actionable, data-informed recommendations.
    Ability to manage large, complex projects.
    Ability to identify and collaborate with key stakeholders.
    Ability to clearly communicate with a variety of audiences, both verbally and in writing.
    Ability to appropriately prioritize and manage work and to produce quality work, at times within short deadlines.

    Ability to work under limited supervision; exercise sound, independent judgment; set priorities; meet deadlines and adapt to shifting project developments.

    Ability to identify problems, evaluate alternatives and implement effective solutions.
    Ability to prepare well-written, concise briefing documents and reports, and visually dynamic presentations.
    Ability to professionally represent the OIG.
