Sr. Clinical Manager

Senior Clinical Manager (Respiratory Care)

Location : Greater Chicagoland Area

Reports To : Chief Clinical Officer

About the Role

If you’re an experienced Respiratory Therapist ready to lead at a higher level—developing people, shaping care delivery, and driving operational excellence—this is your opportunity.

The Senior Clinical Manager serves as the day-to-day market leader responsible for the culture, compliance, quality, and performance of the respiratory therapy team in their region. You’ll oversee hiring and development, manage productivity and P&L outcomes, and ensure that every clinical decision balances patient care, compliance, and financial stewardship.

You’ll be a key voice within the patient care pod —collaborating closely with multidisciplinary teams to ensure that each patient has a seamless, world-class experience and receiving care we are proud of. Success in this role requires strong clinical judgment, operational awareness, and an understanding of the local market and sales dynamics that shape the patient experience.

Most importantly, you’ll help lead the way as an ambassador of change —piloting new processes and systems, helping create SOPs and KPIs, and championing the needs of our RTs.

We’re investing heavily in the RT experience, and this role is central to making our organization the best place for Respiratory Therapists to grow and thrive.

What You’ll Do

• Lead, coach, and inspire a team of RTs to deliver outstanding patient care and clinical outcomes.
• Set the tone and culture for your market—own hiring, onboarding, 1 : 1s, and performance development.
• Manage productivity and financial outcomes for your market (you’re a local P&L leader).
• Serve as a key clinical voice within the care pod, collaborating cross-functionally to optimize the patient journey.
• Balance patient-first decision-making with sound compliance and financial judgment.
• Champion process improvement—pilot new workflows, test technology, and help refine KPIs and SOPs.
• Build clinical excellence through ongoing coaching, feedback, and development.
• Create a culture of accountability, collaboration, and continuous improvement.

Why This Role Matters
