Why This Role

• True executive ownership over clinical strategy and provider leadership
• A CEO who wants a partner, not a subordinate
• A stable, mission‑driven organization with deep community ties
• Northern California lifestyle

Northern California offers a quality of life that's hard to match: temperate year‑round climate, easy access to both the Pacific coast and the Sierra Nevada, and a community pace that prioritizes balance over burnout. Outdoor recreation is at the doorstep: hiking, cycling, wine country, redwoods, rivers, and ocean within easy reach.

Major metro amenities (San Francisco, Sacramento) are a short drive when you want them, and a comfortable distance when you don’t. Strong public schools, a robust food and arts scene, and tight‑knit communities make this a place professionals put down roots. Not just a stop along the way.

All inquiries are handled confidentially. Client name, exact location, and full position details are released only after an initial recruiter conversation.
