community-focused health system based in Towson, Maryland.
GBMC HealthCare, a Malcolm Baldridge National Quality Award Recipient, is a preeminent not-for-profit comprehensive healthcare system serving a population of 1.4 million. GBMC HealthCare is a 275-bed, approximately $750 million net revenue,
3,900-employee health system well known nationally for its excellence in healthcare.

The system provides a full spectrum of care to the residents of Baltimore County and beyond, including inpatient and outpatient hospital-based services, primary care and specialty physician practices, hospice care, inpatient sub-acute care, and physician office buildings.
The CEO reports to the Board of Directors of GBMC HealthCare and plays a critical role in developing a partnership where they educate, mentor, and guide the board in their charge as the community leaders responsible for the success of GBMC HealthCare. The next CEO will be an innovative, results-oriented executive who will drive accountability and bring a breadth and depth of successful experience leading and developing strategy, fostering and strengthening organizational culture, and building and integrating programs and services that have enhanced community access to high-quality health care. The CEO should have experience as a culture and system builder and in developing exceptional relationships with physicians, caregivers, employees, and the community. The CEO will need to quickly gain an appreciation for the total cost-of-care system, the current policy initiatives, and have the ability to successfully lead GBMC HealthCare within the framework of Maryland’s unique all-payer, rate-regulated system.
The successful candidate will be an authentic, values-driven, relational leader who inspires and collaborates with others. It will be imperative that the CEO be a highly effective communicator committed to strengthening a transparent, collaborative work environment, serving as an effective, visible ambassador of GBMC HealthCare, and becoming part of the fabric of the community. The CEO will be a dynamic, growth-oriented leader with excellent interpersonal and communication skills; they must be comfortable serving as the face of GBMC HealthCare in the community and adept at interacting with all levels of hospital staff and a committed and active group of volunteers.
