Job description

A growing, non-profit health system in the Gulf South Region is seeking an accomplished Chief Nursing Officer to lead nursing across its flagship acute care hospital.

This is a significant executive opportunity overseeing approximately 1,500+ FTEs in a 500+ bed trauma center.

The incoming CNO will inherit an experienced nursing leadership team, a strong nurse recruitment and development pipeline, and an organization that has already invested heavily in its nursing infrastructure. This is not a turnaround opportunity - it is a chance to build on a strong foundation and take nursing to the next level.

The Opportunity

Lead approximately 1,500+ FTEs across a large, complex acute care environment

Set the nursing strategy around retention, engagement, staffing, quality and patient experience

Strengthen shared governance and professional nursing practice

Advance nursing technology, virtual nursing and workforce innovation

Help lead the organization's journey toward Pathway to Excellence , with Magnet as a longer-term goal

Who We\'re Looking For

We are seeking an established Chief Nursing Officer , ideally with 3–5+ years of successful CNO experience in a large, complex acute care hospital.

The ideal candidate will bring measurable results in nursing workforce performance, retention, engagement, quality and operational execution, along with the executive presence to lead an experienced team and partner effectively with senior leadership.

RN and Master's degree required (if not in Nursing, must hold a BSN). Doctorate preferred.

Compensation & Relocation

The organization offers a generous executive compensation package, annual bonus incentives and relocation assistance .

For an accomplished CNO who wants significant scale, executive-level autonomy and the opportunity to make a visible impact without layers of corporate bureaucracy , this is an opportunity worth exploring.
