Job description

Mountain View Health Services is seeking an experienced Chief Operating Officer / RHTP Project Director to lead the day-to-day operations of our organization and our Rural Health Transformation Program (RHTP) service lines. Reporting to the CEO/Medical Director and working alongside the CFO, the COO is the organization's operational leader — turning strategy into execution across clinical operations, facilities, technology, workforce, and community partnerships.

This is a high-impact leadership opportunity to help reopen and build an integrated mobile and center-based health center offering primary care, urgent care, medication-assisted treatment (MAT), behavioral health and maternal child health home-visiting programs.

What You’ll Do

• Lead daily operations of the integrated mobile and center-based service lines (primary care, urgent care, MAT, behavioral health, and home-visiting) keeping execution aligned with the organization's goals and budget.
• Build and support the workforce — drive recruitment, onboarding, and development across clinical and support roles, including our Early Life Wellness program.
• Manage facilities, including oversight of a planned clinic minor renovation.
• Direct technology and data systems, ensuring secure, compliant IT and data governance.
• Oversee revenue-cycle operations, credentialing, and enrollment, partnering with the CFO on reimbursement and financial sustainability.
• Champion community engagement — launch and support a Community Advisory Board and partnerships with local organizations.
• Own program implementation and evaluation, coordinating the project workplan and the program's evaluation framework from launch through delivery.
• Steward grant compliance and procurement, managing vendor selection, contracting processes, and reporting in line with federal award requirements.

What We’re Looking For

• Master's degree in a relevant field.
• At least 7 years of progressive leadership experience in healthcare operations, including direct accountability for multi-departmental operations and budgets (operations, facilities, IT, revenue cycle, workforce, and/or community engagement).
• Experience managing or leading operations under federal or state grants.
• Working knowledge of federal grant compliance.
• Eligibility to participate in federal programs (not debarred, suspended, or excluded).

Preferred

• PMP or equivalent project-management credential.

You'll have the opportunity to stand up an innovative, integrated "neighborhood health care system without walls".
