Job Title: Medical Clinic Operations Manager (NP / PA / RN, Bilingual English and Spanish)
Job Type: Full-Time, Exempt
A fantastic opportunity awaits you at Tri City Health Partnership (TCHP), the only completely free medical and dental clinic in Kane County, Illinois.
This role supervises a small, mission-driven clinical support team and works closely with a large and dedicated volunteer provider base.
Join us in creating a healthier community. We look forward to all we can do together!
Tri City Health Partnership is a dedicated, non-profit organization providing free, quality medical and dental care to uninsured residents in Central Kane County in an environment of mutual respect. We promote a healthy lifestyle through education and preventative care to foster the growth of the whole individual.
We are seeking a dynamic and professional health care clinician leader to serve as the Medical Clinic Operations Manager and lead the clinical operations at Tri City Health Partnership. This position may be filled by a Registered Nurse (RN), Nurse Practitioner (NP), or Physician Assistant (PA). Scope of practice, title and compensation will be commensurate with licensure, experience and clinic needs. The ideal candidate will have:
· A passion for patient care,
· Strong leadership skills,
· Exceptional communication skills (the majority of the patients we see at TCHP speak Spanish as their primary language, therefore the ideal candidate will also have a high level of proficiency communicating in Spanish - both orally and in writing.)
· Excellent organizational skills, and
· Effective people skills.
In this position, you will play a pivotal role in making a positive impact on the lives of people we serve. You will be a key member of our leadership team, co-leading the medical clinic with our Clinical Care Manager, and reporting to the Executive Director, with close partnership from the Medical Director.
This role is well-suited for a clinician leader who enjoys wearing multiple hats, values mission-driven work, and thrives in a collaborative, resource-conscious nonprofit environment. The Medical Clinic Operations Manager will have meaningful autonomy, direct access to organizational leadership and the opportunity to shape systems and programs that directly impact patient care.
As the Medical Clinic Operations Manager, you'll be responsible for working with our staff and volunteer providers to ensure the overall delivery of high-quality care to our patients. You'll also oversee the day-to-day operations of the medical clinic, including the onsite pharmacy (note: TCHP does not keep narcotics in our onsite pharmacy), ensure compliance with all state and federal regulations, and train and manage staff and volunteers. You will also engage in community outreach efforts to recruit new volunteers and patients. You will never be alone in your efforts. The Clinical Care Manager will be a close partner in clinic operations, and you will have support from clinic leadership and staff.
Working at TCHP is about more than a job - it's about choosing how and where you want to make an impact.
Why People Choose TCHP:
It's all about the people-the patients we serve, the communities we live and work in, the people we can help. TCHP is a small nonprofit with a big mission. People who thrive at TCHP are motivated by impact, collaboration, and the opportunity to make a tangible difference in patients' lives. Our team values flexibility, shared leadership, and the ability to see work translate directly into improved care and access for the community. While our resources are more limited than large healthcare systems, the work is deeply meaningful-and the relationships, trust, and autonomy that come with it are often what keep people here.
Behind every number, statistic, process, and policy is a patient. We strive to help as many people as we can.
Core Responsibilities:
With the Clinical Care Manager, build teamwork with Medical Director, Executive Director and Board of Directors to ensure the efficient management of the clinic and clinic operations.
