Advanced Practice Manager; NP​/PA​/APP; Critical Care and Hospital Medicine

This is an exciting opportunity to join the leadership team at UVA Health's Center for Advanced Practice (CAP) - the health system's professional home for advanced practice providers (APPs). The APP Manager for Medical ICU and Hospital Medicine is more than a "lead APP" role: it is a front-line leadership position responsible for the day-to-day management, professional development, and practice standards of two high-acuity APP teams.

The successful candidate will bridge clinical expertise with systems-level administration, serving as the primary point of accountability for team performance, recruiting and onboarding, and local practice standards, while representing MICU and Hospital Medicine APP interests in system-level discussions.

This manager will maintain an active clinical practice representing approximately 60-70% of total effort, with the remaining time allocated to management-related responsibilities. This structure ensures the manager remains a credible, front-line clinical leader who understands the realities of the teams they support.

The ideal candidate is an experienced and confident clinician with a genuine desire to support fellow clinicians, deliver - and help others deliver - superlative patient care, pursue ways to enhance the contribution of advanced practice to the clinical mission, and both identify and effect change where gaps exist.

• Desire to not only identify practice or workflow gaps, but to have an active voice in closing them.
• Genuine motivation to elevate colleagues to success, with a track record of mentoring or developing others.
• Demonstrated history of effective collaboration and partnership across disciplines and levels of leadership.
• Strong patient-focused orientation that grounds day-to-day decision-making.
• Ability to articulate a clear team vision and rally others around it.

• Represent MICU and Hospital Medicine APP teams' interests in system-level discussions, committees, and planning forums.
• Identify gaps in practice, workflow, or professional experience and lead efforts to design and implement solutions.
• Build and sustain a team culture grounded in accountability, engagement, and shared purpose.

• Maintain an active clinical practice representing approximately 60-70% of total effort
• Establish and maintain local standards for clinical practice consistent with CAP and divisional expectations.

• Monitor scope-of-practice, credentialing, and competency requirements for team members.

• Manage APP recruiting, interviewing, and onboarding
• Track and report team-based performance metrics, using data to identify opportunities for improvement.
