About the job Emergency Services Manager
Manager, Emergency Services
Emergency Department & Trauma Services
Full-Time | Day/Evening | Exempt
Why This Role Is Special
This opportunity is located in one of Washingtons most scenic coastal regions. Think ocean views, ferry rides at sunset, island hopping, hiking, kayaking, and a slower pace of life where community still matters. This is a place where work-life balance is not just talked about, it is lived. If you value meaningful leadership, fresh air, and a strong sense of place, this role offers all three.
The Opportunity
We are seeking an experienced Manager of Emergency Services to support the day-to-day operations of a busy Emergency Department within a respected healthcare organization in the Pacific Northwest. This leader will work closely with the Director to ensure high-quality patient care, strong staff engagement, and operational excellence.
This is an ideal role for a collaborative, hands-on leader who enjoys mentoring teams, improving processes, and stepping in when needed.
