Job description

An exciting opportunity is available for an experienced Nurse Unit Manager or senior perioperative nurse ready to take the next step into a CEO/Director of Nursing position within a small, well-established day hospital in Sydney.

This is an excellent opportunity for a hands-on clinical leader who is looking to step away from the larger hospital environment and take ownership of the day-to-day running of a smaller service.

The hospital operates a single operating theatre with a small recovery unit, providing a close-knit environment where your leadership, clinical expertise and operational skills will have a direct impact. This is a very hands-on leadership role and would suit someone who enjoys being involved in the clinical environment, supporting their team and getting stuck in when needed.

The Role

As CEO/Director of Nursing, you will be responsible for the overall clinical and operational leadership of the day hospital, working closely with the team to ensure the smooth and effective delivery of patient care.

The role will include:

• Providing hands-on clinical and operational leadership
• Overseeing the day-to-day running of the theatre and recovery areas
• Managing workforce planning, rostering and staff performance
• Ensuring accreditation, compliance, risk and quality requirements are met
• Working closely with surgeons, specialists and other key stakeholders
• Supporting business development and the ongoing growth of the service
• Being actively involved in the clinical environment and assisting the team when required
• Building a positive and collaborative workplace culture
