Job description
$375,000–$541,000 Target Compensation | Hybrid | W-2 | Monday–Friday | No Call
Lead. Practice. Innovate. Shape the Future of Psychiatry.
What if you could step into a true physician leadership role without giving up the part of psychiatry you love most — caring for patients?
Join a physician-led, community-focused outpatient psychiatry organization serving diverse and underserved populations across Southern California. An established, growing organization is seeking a Medical Director to help shape the future of clinical care while continuing to maintain a meaningful clinical practice.
You'll provide clinical leadership, physician oversight, and strategic direction , working alongside Psychiatrists, NPs, PAs, Therapists, executive leadership, operations, quality, and research teams to elevate clinical standards, improve patient outcomes, strengthen physician performance, and develop innovative models of care.
Why This Role Stands Out
Hybrid flexibility | Monday–Friday | No weekends or call
Meaningful influence over clinical strategy and physician leadership
Opportunity to shape quality, patient safety, and evidence-based psychiatric care
Established research and clinical leadership infrastructure
Opportunities in interventional psychiatry, clinical research, and value-based care
Continue providing outpatient psychiatric care while serving as a clinical leader
Make an Impact Beyond the Exam Room
As Medical Director, you'll have the opportunity to:
Lead and mentor physicians while supporting recruitment, retention, and professional development
Establish clinical standards, protocols, and evidence-based psychiatric practices
Provide oversight of complex and high-acuity cases
Drive quality improvement, patient safety, and physician performance initiatives
Develop and monitor clinical quality metrics and improve care delivery
Partner with executive leadership on clinical strategy, staffing, and program development
Conduct outpatient psychiatric evaluations and follow-ups in person and via telehealth
Collaborate with research leadership on clinical outcomes and real-world evidence
Participate in clinical research, interventional psychiatry, and value-based care based on your interests
What We’re Looking For
MD or DO | Board Certified Psychiatrist
3+ years of independent psychiatric practice
Experience leading or managing physicians
Experience with clinical quality, patient safety, or performance improvement
Strong clinical judgment and ability to oversee complex psychiatric cases
Excellent communication and interdisciplinary leadership skills
Ability to turn clinical strategy into practical, sustainable processes
Build What’s Next in Psychiatry
This is more than a Medical Director title. It’s an opportunity to have a meaningful voice in how psychiatric care is delivered while staying connected to the patients you serve.
Bring your clinical expertise, leadership experience, and vision to an organization where you can lead with purpose, innovate in psychiatry, and help shape what comes next.
