UCHealth

Description

The Opportunity

Chief Information Officer

The Chief Information Officer (CIO) serves as the senior executive responsible for the strategic direction, execution, and operational performance of all information technology functions across a complex, multi-site health system including a quaternary academic referral center. This leader will drive enterprise-wide digital transformation, ensuring technology enables clinical excellence, operational efficiency, and a best-in-class patient and provider experience.

The CIO will operate at the intersection of strategy, innovation, cybersecurity, and operational reliability, with accountability for advancing the organization's IT capabilities while maintaining high system availability and information security readiness.

This role requires a visible, dynamic, execution-oriented, and collaborative executive who partners across clinical and administrative leadership to advance institutional priorities and position the organization for continued growth and innovation. This position is an onsite role and does not require hybrid or remote work options.

Reports to: Chief Administrative Officer

Responsibilities

Chief Information Officer

The Chief Information Officer will lead the full spectrum of enterprise technology - from defining and executing a system-wide IT strategy, to ensuring operational performance and cybersecurity resilience, to driving digital innovation that transforms how care is delivered. This is both a visionary and an operator: someone who can partner at the executive level to shape strategic direction while building and leading the high-performing team responsible for bringing that vision to life. In a health system where technology is inseparable from mission, the CIO is a critical leadership voice - translating complexity into clarity, risk into opportunity, and ambition into execution.

  • Develop and drive a bold, forward-looking IT and digital-first strategy that directly advances clinical excellence, quality and operational performance
  • Balance transformational long-term initiatives with operational discipline - ensuring reliability and resilience are never sacrificed for innovation
  • Continuously assess capability gaps and emerging opportunities, translating them into a coherent roadmap for next-generation digital infrastructure
  • Provide unified technology leadership across all sites, establishing scalable architecture, enterprise-wide standards, and a culture of continuous performance optimization
  • Own the availability, resilience, and performance of all enterprise systems - including the electronic health record platform, the enterprise resource planning platform, the imaging platform, clinical applications, enterprise analytics, biomedical equipment, core data and voice infrastructure, end-user computing, and mobile application development
  • Champion scalable digital solutions that meaningfully improve quality and safety, patient access, care delivery, patient experience, research capabilities, and financial performance
  • Exhibit financial discipline in the implementation of IT capabilities ensuring that the returns on investment are clear and achievable
  • Set the strategic direction for enterprise cybersecurity while remaining hands-on in enterprise risk assessment, incident response, and mitigation
  • Ensure full regulatory compliance and uphold rigorous standards for data protection, privacy, and information security across all systems and partners
  • Establish clear accountability frameworks that tie IT delivery to measurable business and clinical outcomes
  • Elevate IT service management with a relentless focus on end-user experience, service quality, and operational responsiveness
  • Build a proactive, intelligence-driven posture that anticipates vulnerabilities rather than reacting to them
  • Lead the integration and adoption of emerging technologies - including artificial intelligence, automation, and advanced analytics - into clinical and operational workflows to drive measurable outcomes
  • Create the organizational conditions for sustained innovation: structured experimentation, rapid iteration, and disciplined scaling of what works
  • Proactively surface emerging risks, opportunities, and tradeoffs to senior leadership, ensuring full transparency and no surprises
  • Build credibility across clinical, operational, and administrative stakeholders by consistently delivering on commitments and communicating with clarity
  • Recruit, develop, and retain a high-performing IT organization capable of executing at the pace and complexity of a leading health system
  • Cultivate a culture defined by accountability, intellectual curiosity, and a bias toward action
  • Lead with humility and service while holding the organization to the highest standards of execution - modeling the behaviors you expect at every level

Candidate Qualifications

The culture at UCHealth is results driven, and each member has high expectations for themselves as well as those with whom they partner and lead. Candidates will be comfortable working in a fast-paced academic and community-based organization.

  • Proven leadership of enterprise IT strategy, digital transformation, and large-scale implementations
  • Deep experience and a successful track record or partnership with clinical leadership
  • Expertise in cybersecurity, data governance, and enterprise risk management
  • Experience integrating artificial intelligence, automation, and emerging technologies into enterprise IT environments
  • Ability to balance strategic vision with operational execution, ensuring high availability and performance
  • Demonstrated success leading and developing high-performing IT organizations
  • Strong partnership with executive leadership to align technology with clinical and business priorities
  • Experience supporting enterprise platforms (e.g., Epic, Infor, ServiceNow) and healthcare technology ecosystems
  • Executive presence and ability to build credibility with clinical, operational, and board-level stakeholders

Pay: $605,196 - $907,774 annual base pay. Pay is dependent on applicant's relevant experience
