Chief Executive Officer
Siouxland Community Health Center
Sioux City, IA - United States
WittKieffer is honored to share that we have launched a CEO search with Siouxland Community Health Center (SCHC), a federally qualified health center headquartered in Sioux City, Iowa. This $49M, 350-person FQHC ranks in the top 10% nationally for its exceptional quality care, offering a range of medical services throughout the tri-state region of northwest Iowa, northeast Nebraska, and southeast South Dakota. SCHC is a patient-centered home for medical, dental, pharmacy, lab, behavioral health and social services, a child health program, as well as HIV testing, care, and prevention. SCHC was recently awarded a $5M donation from Mackenzie Scott and her charitable foundation, Yield Giving, based on the center’s service to the community.
With the retirement of their CEO, the Board has launched a national search to recruit a leader with a deep commitment to providing high-quality, comprehensive healthcare and safety net services to the most vulnerable and underserved populations. The new CEO will identify and pursue opportunities to improve and expand services, access, quality, and reimbursement. The organization was founded in 1992 as a collaboration between local hospitals UnityPoint and MercyOne Siouxland Medical Center. Today, with the fundraising efforts by SCHC’s foundation, the center is mostly self-sufficient and can offer services it would not be able to otherwise.
Reporting to the Board of Directors, the CEO is directly responsible for the strategic direction, vision, and operations of Siouxland Community Health Center. Strong communication and relationship building skills are essential to ensuring transparency and collaboration. The experience of leading a geographically disbursed organization will be a real plus, serving patients in urban and rural settings. Senior-level executive experience in an FQHC, community health center, primary care facility, not-for-profit healthcare, or human services organization will be considered.
