This organization is navigating a period of transformational change and seeks a strategic, hands-on Interim Chief Ambulatory Officer (CAO) to stabilize and elevate operations across a broad ambulatory footprint.
This is more than a stopgap assignment — it’s an opportunity to drive meaningful improvements in access, patient flow, clinic performance, and system alignment.

Improve care coordination, operational efficiency, and throughput across the ambulatory enterprise.
Partner with physician leadership and nursing to elevate performance, culture, and outcomes.
Assess current structures and processes, recommending and implementing key improvements.

Contribute to strategic decisions that support both short-term stability and long-term growth.
What Sets This Role Apart
Large-Scale Impact : Oversee operations across dozens of clinic sites serving diverse communities.
Collaborative Culture : Work with forward-thinking executives who welcome expertise and fresh perspective.
California Lifestyle : Enjoy a beautiful and vibrant location with year-round sunshine, whether you're commuting in or relocating temporarily.
Stability Meets Strategy : While the hospital seeks a permanent CAO, this role is critical for continuity and progress.
A proven ambulatory operations leader , ideally at the executive or senior director level.
Skilled in multi-site clinic management , operational turnarounds, and physician partnerships.
Known for your ability to drive change, build trust, and get results.
Previous interim experience is a plus, but not required.
Let’s talk. This is an immediate need, and we’re moving quickly.
