Epic Certified Research Project Manager

At Divurgent, we employ real people on our Team, not just “resources.” We firmly believe our Team is the driving force behind our successes, and because of that, we are solidly focused on evaluation, maintaining, and improving upon the Divurgent culture by integrating our ELITE Values into everything we do. Culture is the SINGLE most important component we have. We want our employees, recruits, clients, prospects, and even our competitors to feel it and believe it! Appreciating and supporting our Team Members—the people behind our success—is at the core of Divurgent’s values, mission, and goals. In addition to our Financial, Health and Wellness, and Community and Culture benefits, we offer team coffee breaks and happy hours, a book club, a grill master competition, March Madness events, a Divurgent Pets group, and team engagement programs – true testaments to the value our Team holds for Divurgent. If you have a passion for healthcare and are excited about your career and joining a TEAM, Divurgent is the place for you. We are always looking for qualified, culture-friendly candidates to join our professional and somewhat quirky family.
