Job Summary
Queen's Health Sciences is currently recruiting for a keystone position at their Lakeridge Health Campus, which hosts the new Family Medicine focused MD program (position will be based in Oshawa). Using their strong relationship building and collaboration skills, the Manager of Operations will apply their inclusive style of leadership to the overall management of the site. With the main campus located in Kingston, Ontario, the Manager of Operations will be required to create meaningful relationships with other leaders whom they do not see in-person often. This means the successful applicant will have to work independently during the implementation of initiatives and be able to build a positive culture within the Oshawa team to achieve the goals of this new program effectively. Additionally, being able to effectively manage individuals and learn the business will be keys to success.
The Queen's-Lakeridge Health Family Medicine MD program launched in September 2023. The first of its kind in Canada, it trains MD students through to family medicine residency and will graduate practice-ready, community-focused physicians who are able to provide comprehensive care to people in southeastern Ontario. This role is a great opportunity for someone who is excited about expanding an established program that is recognized Canada-wide into a new community, with clear goals to positively impact the health outcomes of Canadians both locally and nationally. Because of it's potential to address the deficit in family doctors that the Durham Region, and more broadly Canada, are experiencing, this is a high-profile initiative that other learning institutions will be monitoring and potentially mirroring in their own schools.
If you are an inclusive leader who would like an opportunity to build something new that has the opportunity to positively impact a crisis within Canada's health care system, we encourage you to apply.
