The successful candidate will be responsible for the development and execution of system-wide strategic sourcing, contracting, and value analysis functions. This role involves leading and developing team members, driving clinical sourcing strategies, and managing supplier relationships to ensure the best total value for the organization. The Executive Director will also oversee the value analysis program, non-labor cost management, and the sourcing of annual routine capital equipment projects.

The ideal candidate will be a critical thinker, influential leader, and possess excellent communication skills. Experience in business process improvement, and performance management, and the ability to lead cross-functional teams are also necessary. The Executive Director will be expected to demonstrate personal leadership qualities and business acumen, and to actively contribute to the organization's culture of equity and continuous improvement.
