About the Role

The Company is seeking a Chief Information Officer (CIO) to provide strategic leadership and direction for its information technology initiatives. The CIO will be responsible for developing and implementing IT strategies that align with the organization's mission and vision, with a focus on improving operational efficiency, enhancing patient care, and ensuring financial stability. This role demands a deep understanding of healthcare IT, data analytics, and cybersecurity, and the successful candidate will lead a team across all IT functions, including clinical and business applications and technical services. Daily interactions with a diverse clientele, including hospital staff and physicians, are an integral part of the position.

Candidates for the CIO role at the company should have a minimum of 10 years' experience in IT management, with a preference for those holding relevant IT certifications.

A strong understanding of healthcare IT standards, regulations, and best practices, as well as experience in a healthcare setting, is required. The ideal candidate will have a background in EHR systems, IT infrastructure, data analytics, and cloud technologies, and experience in EHR implementations is a plus. The CIO will be expected to handle confidential material with integrity and maintain an ethical and trusting relationship with all staff.
