Job description
Chief Financial Officer
East Adams Rural Healthcare | Ritzville, Washington
$150,000 to $180,000 DOE | Full-Time | On-Site
This is rural healthcare leadership at its best.
East Adams Rural Healthcare is looking for an experienced Chief Financial Officer to join its leadership team in Ritzville, Washington.
And this is an important hire.
The organization is intentionally taking the time to find the right person. Not simply someone who understands the numbers, but a finance leader who understands what those numbers mean to a rural hospital, its employees, its patients, and the community depending on it.
East Adams is led by a genuinely dedicated rural healthcare leadership team. These are leaders who show up, know their people, care deeply about their hospital, and are invested in keeping quality healthcare available close to home.
For the right CFO, this is an opportunity to become part of that team and have a meaningful voice in where the organization goes next.
What You Will Do
Reporting directly to the CEO and serving as a member of the District Leadership Team, the CFO will provide both strategic and hands-on financial leadership across the organization.
The CFO will oversee financial operations including:
Accounting and financial reporting
Budgeting and long-range financial planning
Revenue cycle oversight
Billing
Payroll and accounts payable
Treasury functions
Payer contracting and contract review
Capital planning, RFPs, and contract negotiations
Financial regulatory and compliance requirements
Patient Navigator and Care Coordination teams
Departmental budgeting and expense management
Audits, tax-related matters, and financial controls
This leader will work closely with the CEO, CNO, COO, department leaders, medical staff, and Board of Directors to ensure the organization remains financially strong while continuing to meet the needs of the community.
This Role Goes Beyond Accounting
East Adams is looking for a CFO who can translate financial information into decisions.
Someone who can sit with department leaders and help them understand the story behind the numbers.
Someone who can identify opportunities, ask good questions, strengthen revenue, control unnecessary costs, evaluate new services, and help leadership plan responsibly for the future.
You will regularly interact with and present to the Board of Directors, participate in operational and administrative leadership meetings, and provide financial guidance throughout the organization.
The CFO will also play an important role in evaluating new programs and services, negotiating contracts, identifying opportunities for performance improvement, and helping East Adams continue building a sustainable future for rural healthcare in the region.
Who We Are Looking For
The strongest candidate will bring significant financial leadership experience specifically within a Critical Access Hospital or small rural hospital environment .
East Adams is seeking someone with:
Previous CFO-level or equivalent leadership experience in a Critical Access Hospital
At least five years of progressive healthcare financial or accounting management experience
Strong knowledge of Critical Access Hospital finance
Demonstrated revenue cycle experience with a track record of improvement and success
Experience in a nonprofit healthcare environment
Experience working directly with executive leadership and governing boards
Strong budgeting, forecasting, financial analysis, and strategic planning skills
Understanding of payer contracting and healthcare reimbursement
Strong written and verbal communication skills
The ability to build relationships across departments and explain complex financial matters clearly
A master's degree and CPA designation are preferred.
Compensation & Benefits
Salary: $150,000 to $180,000 depending on experience
Benefits include:
Health insurance
403(b) retirement plan
Paid time off
Work location: In person in Ritzville, Washington
Why Ritzville?
Ritzville sits in the heart of Eastern Washington, where agriculture, community, and rural life still matter.
This is the kind of place where healthcare leadership is personal.
You are not managing finances from a distance. You can see the impact of the decisions you make, know the people those decisions affect, and become part of a hospital that is deeply connected to the community around it.
For a finance leader who believes rural healthcare deserves strong, thoughtful, experienced leadership, this could be something pretty special.
If this opportunity feels like it could be the right next chapter for you, we would love to learn more about you.
