Director Of Finance

Overview

The Director of Finance (DOF) has overall responsibility for the financial leadership of the Hospital and related entities. The DOF assists the Hospital CEO and other hospital leadership in managing the financial and legal aspects of the business. This position has operational responsibility for the accounting, purchasing, revenue integrity, health information systems, and patient access departments (may not have hiring and firing over these departments).

Due to the size of the company, this position must maintain extensive skills in the areas being supervised and will often assist those reporting departments in a direct, hands‑on way. A critical need to balance time spent on operational areas versus strategic management issues requires a fast‑working, confident, critical thinker who can juggle multiple high priority projects simultaneously. The DOF has a dotted line reporting relationship with Surgery Partners (the management company) finance team.

The DOF is ultimately accountable for the financial strategic success of the organization.
