About This Role
Job Overview
This Healthcare Manager position is about making sure a clinic or department runs smoothly so patients get the care they need. You'll oversee daily operations, manage budgets, and lead a team of clinical and administrative staff. It's a role where policy meets people, every single day. The job is based in Albany, NY, serving the local community.
Duties & Responsibilities
- Manage clinic schedules, staffing levels, and patient flow to optimize efficiency.
- Develop and monitor departmental budgets, finding ways to control costs without cutting corners on care.
- Lead hiring, training, and performance reviews for your team.
- Ensure strict compliance with healthcare regulations, accreditation standards, and privacy laws like HIPAA.
- Act as a liaison between clinical staff, administrators, and sometimes patients to resolve issues and improve services.
- Analyze operational data and patient feedback to recommend and implement process improvements.

What It's Like In This Role
You'll split your time between your desk and walking the floor. One minute you're deep in a spreadsheet, the next you're troubleshooting a staffing gap or calming a tense situation. The team relies on you for clear direction and support. Most days are structured but unpredictable; a missed shipment of supplies or an urgent regulatory audit can change everything instantly. You'll use specialized practice management software alongside everyday tools like Excel and Slack to keep everything connected.
Why You'll Like This Opportunity
The work itself offers incredible variety; no two problems are exactly alike. You'll have significant autonomy in how you manage your team and projects. There's real potential to grow into director level roles or specialize in areas like compliance or finance. Because JobXi lists openings from many employers across Albany, NY, you get exposure to different organizational cultures and challenges through one platform.
