Company Overview:
Blink Health is the fastest growing healthcare technology company that builds products to make prescriptions accessible and affordable to everybody. Our two primary products – BlinkRx and Quick Save – remove traditional roadblocks within the current prescription supply chain, resulting in better access to critical medications and improved health outcomes for patients.
BlinkRx is the world's first pharma-to-patient cloud that offers a digital concierge service for patients who are prescribed branded medications. Patients benefit from transparent low prices, free home delivery, and world-class support on this first-of-its-kind centralized platform. With BlinkRx, never again will a patient show up at the pharmacy only to discover that they can't afford their medication, their doctor needs to fill out a form for them, or the pharmacy doesn't have the medication in stock.
We are a highly collaborative team of builders and operators who invent new ways of working in an industry that historically has resisted innovation. Join us!
This is an onsite position. Blink Health has offices in New York City (Flatiron District), St. Louis (Chesterfield), Pittsburgh (Robinson Twp.) and Seattle (Kirkland).
ABOUT THE ROLE
Blink Health is looking for a Senior Program Manager, People Operations to own our Leave of Absence and Accommodations programs end-to-end, while bringing deep People Ops expertise across a broader set of operational workstreams. This is a senior individual contributor role for someone who thrives in building and running programs at scale — not just executing process, but designing the infrastructure behind it.
You will serve as the subject matter expert on all things LOA and ADA at Blink, partnering closely with HRBPs, legal counsel, managers, and employees to ensure every case is handled with care, consistency, and compliance. Beyond LOA and ADA, you'll flex into other People Ops workstreams — payroll, compliance, systems, onboarding/offboarding — as business needs demand.
WHAT YOU'LL OWN
Leave of Absence Program
- Serve as the primary point of contact for all leave of absence requests across federal, state, and local leave laws (FMLA, CFRA, PDL, PFL, ADA, company leave policies, and beyond)
- Work with our leave vendor, Sparrow to manage the full leave lifecycle — intake, eligibility determination, coordination with Sparrow (our leave platform), employee and manager communication, and return-to-work planning
- Maintain and continuously improve leave administration processes, ensuring accuracy, timeliness, and a high-quality employee experience throughout
- Monitor evolving state and federal leave legislation and update policies and procedures accordingly
- Partner with Payroll to ensure accurate pay continuation, benefits deductions, and coordination during leave periods
Accommodations (ADA / PWFA)
- Own the end-to-end accommodations process in partnership with Disclo, our accommodations platform — from intake through resolution
- Conduct interactive process discussions with employees and managers; assess reasonable accommodations in alignment with regulatory and best practice accommodation standards
- Maintain thorough, confidential documentation for every accommodation case; partner with legal counsel as needed on complex situations
- Train managers on their role in the accommodations process and build their confidence in navigating sensitive conversations
People Ops Infrastructure & Flex Support
- Flex into broader People Ops workstreams — payroll, compliance, HRIS (Workday), onboarding/offboarding, and policy administration — as business needs require
- Identify gaps in existing processes and build scalable solutions; translate recurring problems into documented frameworks and systems
- Contribute to People Ops projects and initiatives across the team, bringing operational rigor and cross-functional coordination
- Support audits, reporting, and compliance workstreams including data integrity in Workday
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
- 7+ years of People Operations experience, with at least 3–4 years of dedicated ownership over LOA and/or accommodations programs
- Deep working knowledge of federal and multi-state leave laws (FMLA, ADA, PWFA, CFRA, PDL, PFL, and equivalent state programs)
- Experience managing a high volume of leave and accommodation cases with precision, empathy, and sound judgment
- Strong Workday HCM experience — comfortable navigating absence management modules, reporting, and employee data
- A builder's instinct: you don't just follow process, you question whether the process is right and improve it when it isn't
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills; able to translate complex compliance requirements into plain language for employees and managers
- High degree of discretion and comfort handling sensitive, confidential employee information
- Ability to manage competing priorities across multiple workstreams without losing the details
NICE TO HAVE
- Experience with Sparrow or another leave management platform
- Experience with Disclo or a similar accommodations platform
- Familiarity with payroll administration and how leave intersects with pay continuity
- Experience in a high-growth technology or healthcare company
Why Join Us:
It is rare to have a company that both deeply impacts its customers and is able to provide its services across a massive population. At Blink, we have a huge impact on people when they are most vulnerable: at the intersection of their healthcare and finances. We are also the fastest growing healthcare company in the country and are driving that impact across millions of new patients every year. Our business model not only helps people, but drives economics that allow us to build a generational company. We are a relentlessly learning, constantly curious, and aggressively collaborative cross-functional team dedicated to inventing new ways to improve the lives of our customers.
We are an equal opportunity employer and value diversity of all kinds. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, or disability status.

People Operations Manager Jobs in Missouri: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a people operations manager in Missouri?
Most people operations managers in Missouri start with a bachelor's degree in human resources, business, or organizational psychology and then build several years of generalist HR experience. Missouri does not require a state-issued license for this role. Earning a nationally recognized credential such as the SHRM-CP or PHR through the HR Certification Institute strengthens your candidacy significantly and is frequently listed as preferred by Missouri employers in healthcare, financial services, and logistics.
How much do people operations managers make in Missouri?
People operations managers in Missouri earn a median of about $130,680 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $81,730 for the lowest 10% to over $225,160 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire people operations managers in Missouri?
Companies currently hiring people operations managers in Missouri include State of Missouri, Blink Health, and Target, per current listings on Migrate Mate as of September 2026. Missouri's concentration of large healthcare networks, regional financial institutions, and distribution operations means demand for this role is spread across multiple industries rather than dominated by a single sector.
Which Missouri cities have the most people operations manager jobs?
St. Louis, Kansas City, and Jefferson City hold the most people operations manager openings in Missouri. Kansas City and St. Louis drive the bulk of listings because of their dense concentrations of corporate headquarters, regional hospital systems, and professional services firms, while Columbia's openings are largely tied to the University of Missouri health system and its affiliated employer network.
Are there remote people operations manager jobs in Missouri?
Yes, and more than most fields, because people operations work is largely desk-based, policy-driven, and executable through digital HR systems. About 52% of people operations manager openings tied to Missouri are remote or hybrid as of September 2026, reflecting how widely distributed workforces have normalized this arrangement. Functions like HRIS management, benefits administration, and HR policy work are the most frequently offered as fully remote positions.
How can I get hired as a people operations manager in Missouri with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is moving into the role from an adjacent HR coordinator, HR generalist, or recruiting associate position at a mid-to-large Missouri employer. Healthcare systems like BJC HealthCare and SSM Health in St. Louis and Kansas City, along with large logistics operators headquartered in the metro areas, regularly hire HR coordinators and post internal promotion tracks into people operations roles. Earning your SHRM-CP or completing a SHRM student membership while in an entry role signals readiness to move up and is a concrete credential Missouri hiring managers respond to.
Where can I find and apply to people operations manager jobs in Missouri?
You can find and apply to people operations manager jobs in Missouri on Migrate Mate, which lists current Missouri openings updated in real time. Search the listings, find roles that match your experience and location, and apply directly to the ones that fit.
