Senior Management Engineer - Rockingham Memorial Hospital

Looking for something new? Consider a new start at Rockingham Memorial Hospital, Harrisonburg, Va, as the Senior Management Engineer.

RMH is an independent, not-for-profit community hospital that serves a seven-county area with a population of nearly 200,000. With 266 beds, RMH has 2,100 employees and a credentialed medical staff of more than 260 physicians. Later this year, the hospital will launch a new cardiac surgery program, and in 2010, RMH will move to a new state-of-the-art hospital and health campus on a 254-acre tract of land nearby.

RMH is located in the picturesque Shenandoah Valley, an excellent place to live and raise a family. The hospital is just minutes from many attractions, including the Shenandoah National Forest and Appalachian Trail, the world-class Blackfriars Shakespeare Playhouse, ski resorts, rivers, civil war battlefields and countless other historic attractions. While the area offers a friendly, small town atmosphere, it is convenient to several large metropolitan areas, including Washington, DC, Roanoke, Richmond and Virginia Beach.

The Senor Management Engineer will be responsible for leading new facility cross-functional process design teams for the entire organization. While traditional management engineering projects will likely be the long-term position responsibilities, the first three years of this incumbent's tenure with RMH will be spent specifically focusing on new hospital process design and transition planning activities. The Senior Management Engineer will report to the director of Decision Support Services, but will have significant exposure to the Senior Management team and the New Facility Design steering team.

Qualifications:
Minimum of a BS Degree in a quantitative or health-related field and five years of experience in healthcare operations or quantitative/analytical support. The successful candidate will possess excellent process design, group facilitation and communication skills; be extremely positive and energetic; and show a passion for leading others down the path of healthcare re-design.
