Job description

This is an exciting opportunity to build a transformative, justice-centered healthcare system in the Seattle region.

Tubman Center for Health & Freedom is looking for an experienced healthcare administration professional to join our team.

The Tubman Center for Health & Freedom addresses health and wellness from both systemic and clinical approaches. By practicing medicine from the intersection of health and freedom, we address both the health of our patients as well as the factors that determine their health. Tubman Health provides primary and preventative care, community resources, social services, political education and advocacy. Tubman Health is a community

organization committed to the principles of healing and people’s liberation from systems that make us unwell. We work to advance health justice, culturally appropriate care, and integrative medicine. We are laying the groundwork for an innovative community health clinic that specializes in meeting the needs of marginalized communities in

Seattle’s Puget Sound region. The Healthcare Administrator reports to the co-directors, the COO and CEO.
