Facility Director; Nurse Manager – Clinical & Operational Leadership - Correctional Medicine

Overview

Experienced Builder OR Aspiring Culture Architect

At Ivy, we provide high-quality healthcare inside correctional facilities — serving a population with disproportionately high rates of chronic illness, mental health needs, and limited continuity of care often under-supported. Our mission is simple but demanding: deliver clinically excellent care while building trust, professionalism, and partnership inside complex environments.

Facility Directors in our system are responsible for setting the tone of the site. They build and maintain strong relationships with county and jail leadership. They lead and develop clinical teams. They drive operational performance and ensure standards are upheld. They create accountability without ego. They navigate conflict with professionalism. They protect culture while producing results. They serve as the bridge between the facility and Ivy leadership.

You’ll work alongside:

• County Leadership
• Jail Administration/Leadership
• Officers
• Ivy's Executive Leadership

You’ve:

• Managed teams of 5+
• Worked in ER, ICU, Urgent Care, or Family Practice
• Built culture in high-paced or resource-constrained environments
• Navigated conflict without ego
• Coached instead of commanded
• Influenced without relying on hierarchy

You are ready to shape strategy and accelerate cultural momentum.

You don’t say, “I’ve done this before.”

You say, “Here’s what I’ve learned and here’s what I’m still learning.”

You may not have held the full title yet, but you’ve:

• Stepped up before being asked
• Led peers informally
• Taken ownership before authority was given
• Thrived in ER, ICU, Urgent Care, or Psych environments
• Welcomed direct feedback and grown from it

You’re hungry, not for status, but for impact.

You want mentorship.

You want visibility.

You want to build something meaningful.

And you’re ready to earn trust the right way.

Regardless of background, you must be:

• A sophisticated communicator
• High in emotional intelligence
• Comfortable with conflict
• Deeply accountable
• Results-driven
• Curious about mission
• Willing to give credit and take blame

• Autonomy with executive visibility
• Ability to shape culture, not just execute it
• Real scope of impact
• Stability and leadership support

Cultural influence.

Relational leadership.

Operational excellence.

If you are an experienced builder or an aspiring culture architect ready to lead with accountability and heart, we’d welcome the conversation.
