Chief of Staff

Brockville General Hospital

Located in charming and historic Brockville, in the heart of the Thousand Islands region, Brockville General Hospital plays an important role in the lives and well-being of the more than 100,000 people living within its catchment area. In the fall 2020, BGH expanded into its new patient tower, and was approved to formalize an Ontario Health Team with key community partners.

It is within this exciting context of growth and transformation that BGH is seeking a new Chief of Staff, to fill a 5-year term contract on a part-time (0.40FTE) basis.    

Reporting to the Board Chair, you will play a key strategic and operational leadership role in advancing and supporting BGH’s mission and vision. Working closely with the senior leadership team and Medical Advisory Committee, you will ensure quality medical services are delivered and managed effectively and consistent with the Hospital’s by-laws, strategic and operational priorities. With an eye to the future and an understanding of healthcare's fast-changing environment and its associated risks, opportunities, and trends, you will ensure that BGH remains responsive, innovative, nimble, and able to excel in an increasingly changing healthcare ecosystem. At the senior management and board tables, you will provide colleagues and directors with the counsel, information, and support they need to make sound corporate decisions on a range of topics, from medical program compliance with standards of practice to risk mitigation and growth.

As the ideal candidate, you are a respected physician leader licensed to practice medicine in the province of Ontario with a track record of success providing strategic medical administration counsel at the executive and Board tables.  You are described by your peers and colleagues as a self-motivated, innovative thinker who challenges the status quo with the goal of delivering high quality innovative medical services.  A confident and competent team builder, you have strong communication and interpersonal skills, and a track record of establishing strong relationships with key stakeholders at the local, regional and provincial levels. Your leadership expertise across a broad and varied portfolio of medical programs is critical to your success in this role, as is your ability to effectively lead a Medical Advisory Committee and oversee the work of the standing committees.  Your team orientation and collaborative, professional approach will serve you well, as will your ability to lead, coach and mentor a team of professionals in the development and compliance of standard medical policies, directives, protocols, care plans, and practices.
