Assistant Chief Medical Officer (ACMO) A Rare Leadership Opportunity with a Clear Path to Chief Medical Officer

Are you a physician leader ready to take the next step in your career? This is more than an Assistant Chief Medical Officer position-it's a succession planning opportunity designed for a physician who wants to grow into a CMO role.

A well-established, mission-driven community health organization in the Pittsburgh area is seeking an experienced physician leader to partner with its current executive leadership, gain hands-on operational experience, and ultimately transition into the organization's Chief Medical Officer position.

If you've been looking for an opportunity to shape the future of a healthcare organization while continuing to care for patients, this is your chance.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out
  • Balanced schedule with clinical practice and administrative days
  • Oversee and mentor a team of 7+ providers
  • Join an organization where physician leadership has a direct impact on quality, access, patient experience, and strategic growth
  • Play a key role in shaping clinical operations, provider engagement, and future organizational initiatives
Outstanding Benefits

The organization offers one of the strongest benefits packages in the region, including:

  • 100% employer-paid medical, dental, life, short-term disability, and long-term disability insurance for employees
  • 4% employer 401(k) match
  • Four weeks of PTO during your first two years
  • Twelve paid holidays
  • Two weeks of paid parental leave
  • Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA) and Health Reimbursement Account (HRA) options
Position Highlights

As the Assistant Chief Medical Officer, you'll serve as a key member of the executive leadership team while maintaining an active clinical practice. You'll work closely with senior leadership to:

  • Lead and mentor physicians and advanced practice providers
  • Drive quality improvement and patient safety initiatives
  • Improve clinical operations, workflows, and provider productivity
  • Participate in strategic planning and organizational decision-making
  • Recruit, develop, and retain clinical talent
  • Ensure regulatory compliance and clinical excellence
  • Foster collaboration across clinical and administrative teams
  • Continue providing compassionate primary care to patients across the lifespan
Ideal Candidate

We're seeking a physician who combines strong clinical skills with a passion for leadership and building high-performing teams.

Qualifications include:

  • Board Certified or Board Eligible in Family Medicine or Internal Medicine
  • Active or eligible Pennsylvania medical license
  • Minimum of five years of physician leadership or management experience preferred
  • Experience supervising physicians and/or advanced practice providers
  • Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC) experience strongly preferred
  • Passion for serving diverse patient populations and improving access to high-quality care
Build More Than a Career-Build a Legacy

This is an exceptional opportunity for a physician who wants to influence the future of healthcare delivery while preparing for executive leadership. If you've been waiting for the right opportunity to transition into a Chief Medical Officer role with mentorship, support, and a defined succession plan, we'd love to speak with you.
