Leadership & Operations (≈25%)

  • Lead and directly supervise a team of APPs within the service line

  • Coach and mentor providers to improve clinical quality and performance

  • Monitor key metrics (clinical, operational, patient satisfaction) and drive improvements

  • Partner with Medical Directors and site leaders on staffing, workflows, and provider utilization

  • Support onboarding, training, and ongoing development of APPs

  • Promote a culture of collaboration, accountability, and continuous improvement

What We're Looking For
