Job description

Are you a licensed behavioral health professional ready to take the next step in your leadership career?

Trinity Employment Specialists is partnering with a mission-driven organization in Tulsa to find an experienced Director of Clinical Risk Management who is passionate about patient safety, clinical excellence, and making a meaningful organizational impact.

This isn't just another leadership position. It's an opportunity to help shape policies, strengthen clinical practices, and drive meaningful change across an organization.

• Lead clinical risk management and quality improvement initiatives.
• Oversee clinical incident investigations and root cause analyses.
• Develop strategies to improve patient safety and reduce organizational risk.
• Collaborate directly with executive leadership, legal counsel, and clinical teams.
• Influence policies, procedures, and organizational improvements.

Master's degree in a related clinical or behavioral health field.

Minimum 5 years of clinical experience.

Minimum 3 years of leadership, quality improvement, compliance, risk management, or clinical operations experience.

Strong clinical judgment, communication, and problem-solving skills.

Here's what I want you to know:

You don't necessarily need to have "Risk Management" in your current job title to be a great fit!

If you're a Behavioral Health Director, Clinical Quality Manager, Clinical Operations Director, or Compliance Leader, I'd love to have a conversation.

Sometimes the next step in your career isn't about doing something completely different. It's about using your experience to make an even bigger impact.

Not looking? Know someone who would be a great fit? I'd appreciate the connection!
