NEAR NORTH HEALTH

Chief Operating Officer

This Is Not a Maintenance Role

Near North Health is 58 years old. We have served Chicago's South, North and West sides through every era of this city's story, through disinvestment, through the opioid crisis, through a pandemic, through neighborhoods that the broader healthcare system decided weren't worth the effort. We are still here. We have never left.

We are also in the middle of the most significant transformation in our history.

We are consolidating to three clinic sites. We are executing a Baldrige Excellence Framework transformation under a five-year True North initiative. We are building a Triad leadership model: COO, CMO, and CEO, that distributes authority and demands genuine partnership at the top. We are in Year One of a build that we intend to carry forward for the next decade.

The person who takes this role will not inherit a finished system. They will help design one. That is not a warning. For the right person, it is the entire point.

The Role

The Chief Operating Officer serves as a strategic partner to the CEO and the incoming Chief Medical Officer, responsible for translating vision into operational reality across the organization. This is a strategy-weighted position within a distributed Triad model — not a traditional command-and-control seat.

The COO holds the enterprise view: the architecture, the alignment, the connective tissue between strategy and execution at every level of the organization.

What You Will Build and Hold

Enterprise operational strategy aligned with the True North Five-Year Plan
A performance management architecture that connects board-level direction to frontline team huddles
Cross-functional systems integration across care coordination, workforce, quality, compliance, and facilities
Strategic relationships with health system partners, managed care organizations, and community stakeholders
A culture of accountability, continuous improvement, and innovation grounded in observable, teachable behaviors
Leadership presence in both boardroom and community settings, with equal fluency in both

The Person We Are Looking For

We have thought carefully about this. The profile that will succeed here is specific.

You have built something from scratch — and carried the weight of it.

Not advised on it. You have owned an initiative, a department, a transformation, where the outcome was yours to own. You know what it costs. You also know what it feels like when it works.

You think in systems.

You see the whole staircase, and you also know that the next step is the one that matters. You are fluent in organizational design, performance frameworks, and change management not as theoretical disciplines but as practical tools you have used under pressure.

You chose mission.

You came from somewhere that had higher pay, more prestige, or an easier path. And you are here, or looking here, because the work matters to you in a way that compensation alone does not explain. We are a Federally Qualified Health Center. Our patients are uninsured, underinsured, and underserved. That is not incidental to this role. It is the center of it.

You are at home in different rooms.

You can present to our Board of Directors, which is 51% consumer composition, meaning people who are patients or community members, not executives and you can sit in a community advisory conversation on the West Side, and you do not shift your substance between them. Only your vocabulary. You build trust with people who have earned the right to be skeptical of institutions.

You push back. Constructively. Consistently.

We are not looking for someone who executes orders. We are building a Triad, which means the COO has a seat and a voice and a point of view. You will disagree with the CEO sometimes. That is part of the design. What matters is how you do it.

What Near North Health Brings

We are not asking you to come fix something broken. We are asking you to come help build something exceptional. There is a difference and it matters for the kind of energy and leadership this role requires.

A financially stable organization. We are building from strength, not managing from scarcity.
A CEO who is invested in your success and in building a leadership team that can outlast any single leader.
A Board Chair who is aligned with the direction and ready to support the transformation ahead.
A Service Excellence Initiative already underway, with a training and accountability infrastructure being built to sustain it.
20,000+ patients who need this organization to be excellent and a staff that comes to work every day because they believe it can be.

Qualifications

Required

Seven or more years of progressive leadership in healthcare operations, strategy, or transformation
Demonstrated experience leading significant organizational change — not advising on it
Track record of building systems, teams, or infrastructure from the ground up
Financial literacy sufficient to partner on operational budget oversight and value-based care strategy
Graduate degree in health administration, business, public health, or a related field — or equivalent demonstrated experience

Strongly Preferred

Experience in Federally Qualified Health Centers or community health settings
Familiarity with Baldrige Excellence Framework, Lean, or comparable performance improvement methodologies
Change Management certification or equivalent formal training
Experience working with consumer-composed or community boards
Chicago-based or committed to Chicago relocation

On Fit

"Every system is perfectly designed to get the results it gets."

— W. Edwards Deming

We are deliberately redesigning the system. That means examining assumptions, dismantling structures that no longer serve patients, and building something more intentional in their place. We need a COO who understands that this work is not comfortable and who shows up for it anyway.

If you have read this far and feel something other than mild interest, if something in this description named a problem you were built to solve, we want to hear from you.
