About our client & the role:

Our client is on a mission to deliver palliative care without walls across New Jersey, partnering with leading health systems including RWJBarnabas Health. Our client is hiring a Nurse Practitioner or Physician Assistant to provide hospital-based palliative care at Jersey City Medical Center for patients living with serious illness. Palliative care experience is required for this inpatient role.

Why you'll want this role:

• A strong palliative program behind you: experienced specialists, clinical backup, and data-guided coaching.
• A real interdisciplinary team: physicians, APPs, social work, care coordination, and operational support.
• Clear workflows and quality expectations, not a sink-or-swim field role.
• Primarily a Monday-Friday schedule with flexibility to swap workdays.
• 28 PTO days in year one and a $0/month employee-only medical option.
• Academic pathways, CME up to $1,000/year, and tuition reimbursement up to $2,000.

What you'll do:

• Perform at the top of your license, performing best practice, holistic, patient-centered, evidence-based interdisciplinary palliative medicine.
• Provide palliative care consultations and follow-up visits across the hospital continuum, from high-acuity ED and ICU encounters to ongoing management on medical, surgical, and specialty units.
• Manage complex symptoms for patients with advanced illness and chronic disease.
• Lead goals-of-care and advance care planning conversations with patients and families, coordinating with partner SNFs and/or hospices if and when appropriate.
• Partner with the interdisciplinary team and hospital teams, fully integrating into hospital workflows and shaping the palliative medicine practice.
• Complete timely documentation aligned with clinical, billing, and quality standards.
• Spend as much time on discharge planning as on intake, managing transitions from inpatient to the patient's next setting, considering each patient's longitudinal preference and best interests.

What you bring:

• Active New Jersey Nurse Practitioner or Physician Assistant license and national board certification.
• DEA + CDS registration, or ability to obtain by start date.
• 2+ years of palliative care experience required.
• Palliative care certification (e.g., ACHPN / CHPN) preferred.
• Strong communication, clinical judgment, compassion, and comfort working on interdisciplinary teams.

Compensation & total rewards:

• Competitive base salary: $130,000-$160,000/year.
• Annual performance bonus up to 12.5% of base salary, rewarding both productivity (RVUs) and quality of care.
• 28 days of paid time off your first year, growing to 33 days at 2 years, in one flexible bank.
• Malpractice & professional liability ($1M / $3M), license & DEA renewals, up to $1,000/year CME, up to $2,000 tuition reimbursement.
• Medical via Cigna PPO, including a $0/month employee-only option, plus dental, vision, and an HSA.
• Short- and long-term disability, voluntary life & AD&D, and accident / critical-illness / hospital coverage.
• 401(k) retirement plan, plus pre-tax FSA, dependent-care FSA, HSA, and commuter benefits.
• 24/7 Employee Assistance Program, identity-theft protection, legal plan, pet benefits, and member discounts.

This position is full-time, and full-time is our client's strong preference. That said, exceptional clinicians sometimes need a different arrangement, and for the right candidate, our client is open to discussing part-time or per-diem schedules.
