Chief Operating Officer / Integrator [HT-1060998]

ELEVATE RESPIRATORY THERAPY GROUP

CHIEF OPERATING OFFICER / INTEGRATOR

Are you a smart, thoughtful executive who loves solving big problems and helping good people get even better? Do you bring high standards, strong judgment, and the confidence to challenge ideas and ask hard questions while still leading with empathy? Are you energized by growth, change, and the opportunity to build something exceptional? If you are a positive, low-ego leader who wants to make a meaningful impact, we want to talk to you!

Our ideal COO / Integrator is:

• Sharp and capable. You understand how a business works, quickly see what matters, and ask questions that get to the heart of an issue. People trust your judgment because you come prepared and think things through.
• Decisive with a sense of urgency. You are comfortable making decisions and moving things forward. You know when more discussion will help and when it is time to make the call, pivot, and keep going.
• Empowering and high-trust. You want strong people around you and give them room to lead, creating an environment where people can speak openly, challenge ideas, and take real ownership. You know when your job is to support, coach, or simply get out of the way.
• Highly accountable. Excellence matters to you, and you expect commitments to mean something. When the bar is missed, you address it directly while still taking the time to understand what happened and what needs to change.
• Polished and prepared. You bring a high level of professionalism to how you present yourself, communicate, and prepare. There is a thoughtfulness and attention to detail in how you show up and in the quality of your work that gives others confidence.
• Service-minded and patient-focused. You never lose sight of the people behind the work. Patients, clients, caregivers, and team members matter, and you consider how decisions at the executive level will affect their experience.

ElevateRT is building something ambitious: a company that can grow across the country while continuing to raise the standard of care and invest in the people behind it. As COO / Integrator, you will help shape how ElevateRT grows and build the kind of company capable of sustaining that growth.
