Position Description:
Emerson Health, located in Concord, Massachusetts, just 20 miles northwest of Boston, seeks an experienced and innovative financial executive to serve as the system’s next Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer (CFO). The CFO will be a key member of a talented, nimble senior leadership team with a focus on financial and strategic leadership as Emerson Health continues to provide high-quality care to the community. Emerson Health is financially strong and has a collaborative and nimble culture which sets it apart from larger, bureaucratic hospitals.

Anchored by a modern hospital with 179 beds, 1,900 employees, over 400 RNs, more than 300 physicians, and 14 ambulatory sites, Emerson provides full-service patient care to over 300,000 people across a 25-town service area in a variety of inpatient and outpatient care settings. Emerson is known for tremendous nursing care, strong medical and surgical programs, and as a leader in quality with its CMS 5-Star and Leapfrog A ratings. Emerson enjoys strong clinical affiliations with Boston’s leading academic medical centers, including Massachusetts General Hospital and Brigham Health and Children’s Hospital, that have led to world class care for their patients.
Responsibilities:
Reporting directly to Christine Schuster, the Chief Executive Officer of Emerson Health, the CFO will be in a pivotal role as the organization furthers their strong positioning in the market and surrounding areas. As a key member of the executive team, the Chief Financial Officer will provide leadership and financial oversight for all financial operations. This includes having direct line responsibility for budget and reimbursement, controller’s office, financial reporting, internal audit, financial planning, revenue cycle, information technology, and managed care contracting. In addition to the financial responsibilities, the CFO will serve as a strategic partner to the CEO and Board. The CFO should be viewed as an approachable and visible leader, serving as both a mentor to their team while at the same time being seen as a strategic financial executive who can move the organization forward to its next evolution.
Requirements:
The ideal candidate will bring a wealth of healthcare finance experience to the role and be a seasoned executive who is a strategic thinker, creative problem solver, and a professional of the highest integrity. The qualified candidate will need to be a senior financial executive with at least 10 years of healthcare financial management experience. She/he should have success in developing financial systems within a hospital/medical center where information is provided in a timely fashion and revenues and cash flows are optimized.
