Healthcare CFO & Strategic Growth Partner (Medford)

Jennie Joiner with Forum Group PNW is partnering with a respected, mission-driven healthcare organization in Southern Oregon to identify their next Chief Financial Officer (CFO). This is a rare opportunity to step into a highly visible executive leadership role within a growing multi-site healthcare organization serving communities across the region. The organization has multiple locations throughout southern Oregon and continues to expand its impact while strengthening financial strategy, operational accountability, and long-term sustainability.

Position Overview

The CFO will serve as a key member of the executive leadership team, partnering closely with the CEO, Board, and operational leaders to provide financial oversight, strategic forecasting, regulatory compliance, and long-term financial planning.

Culture & Leadership

The organization values leaders who are mission-driven, emotionally intelligent, and comfortable balancing strategy with accountability.

Someone motivated by both the professional opportunity and the “heart paycheck” that comes from serving a purpose-driven organization.
