In collaboration with the unit director, the manager participates in interviewing and hiring, monitors and evaluates employee performance, assists with learning plans and annual evaluations, and supports disciplinary processes when indicated. The role also contributes to budget formulation, supply management, and compliance with regulatory and nursing standards, and assumes full oversight of departmental operations in the director's absence.

• Bachelor's Degree
• NH RN License or Compact State RN License
• 1+ years of leadership experience (Coordinator, Manager, or higher); will consider a CNC, supervisor, or a seasoned charge nurse (5+ years)
• Critical care experience preferred

Compensation. $100,000 - $148,000 per year
