Job Summary

The Director of Outpatient Surgical Services provides strategic, operational, and clinical leadership for Pavilion Surgical Center at Baylor Scott & White Health (BSWH)—a high-acuity surgical center. This leader oversees the full perioperative continuum, ensuring safe, efficient, and patient-centered care while maintaining strong throughput and an exceptional surgical experience.
The Director is accountable for clinical outcomes, operational performance, financial stewardship, regulatory readiness, and team engagement. Success in this role requires close partnership with surgeons, anesthesia, nursing, executive leaders, and system stakeholders to optimize access, scheduling, and capacity across outpatient surgical services.

Essential Functions
1. Operational Leadership & Throughput Optimization

Lead daily operations of outpatient surgical services, ensuring optimal patient flow, case scheduling, and on-time starts.
Drive OR utilization, block management, and throughput strategies to maximize access while maintaining safety and quality.
Align outpatient surgical operations with system-wide perioperative goals and capacity management strategies.
Implement data-driven performance improvement initiatives targeting efficiency, turnover time, and case-volume growth.

2. Clinical Quality & Patient Safety

Ensure delivery of high-quality, evidence-based care for complex outpatient surgical populations.
Maintain compliance with regulatory, accreditation, and safety standards (e.g., CMS, The Joint Commission).
Lead quality improvement initiatives focused on reducing complications, readmissions, and day-of-surgery cancellations.
Partners with infection prevention, anesthesia, and surgical teams to uphold best practices in perioperative care.

3. Financial & Business Management

Manage the department budget, including labor planning, supply chain optimization, and capital prioritization.
Drive cost-effective care delivery while maintaining high clinical standards.
Identify growth opportunities, including service line expansion and appropriate case migration from inpatient to outpatient settings.
Monitor key financial and operational metrics (e.g., cost per case, contribution margin, productivity).

4. Surgeon, Anesthesia, & Stakeholder Engagement

Act as a liaison between medical staff and administration to align operational priorities with surgeon needs.
Address barriers to surgeon engagement, including scheduling constraints, efficiency concerns, and access challenges.

5. Team Leadership & Culture

Directly leads and develops a multidisciplinary team (RNs, surgical techs, support staff).
Fosters a culture of accountability, engagement, and continuous improvement.
Ensures appropriate staffing models to support high-acuity outpatient care.
Leads recruitment, retention, and professional development initiatives.

6. Strategic Planning & Growth

Develops and executes strategic plans for outpatient surgical services aligned with organization priorities.
Identifies and implements innovative care delivery models to expand outpatient capabilities.
Supports system initiatives to shift appropriate cases to the outpatient setting safely and efficiently.
Evaluates new technologies, procedures, and service lines to enhance program offerings.

Key Success Factors
1. Ability to operate at both strategic and tactical levels. This role balances long-range planning with hands-on, day-to-day leadership.

Set direction and directly manage daily operations.
Maintain a visible, approachable presence and remove barriers in real time.

2. Strong surgeon and anesthesia partnership skills. Success hinges on influencing surgeons and anesthesia providers—particularly around block utilization, schedule optimization, and willingness to expand hours or adapt practices.
3. Deep understanding of perioperative operations. Expertise in OR throughput, scheduling, staffing models, and ASC operations is essential—especially for balancing efficiency with the needs of high-acuity patients.
4. Data-driven decision making. Ability to use metrics (utilization, first-case on-time starts, turnover times, cancellation rates) to drive performance and accountability.
5. Change leadership & resilience. Must be able to lead through resistance—particularly in shifting cases, outpatient, extending hours, or redesigning workflows.
6. Financial acumen - Strong command of labor productivity, supply costs, and margin management in a surgical environment.
7. High-accountability mindset. Success requires ownership of outcomes without reliance on layered leadership.

We believe that all people should feel welcomed, valued and supported.
