Portland, OR Full Time
POSTED ON 4/24/2026

PRAXIS HEALTH — NOW HIRING

Director of Primary Care

Location & Work Model

Location: Portland, Oregon — 100% On-Site

Travel: Approximately 20% regional travel within your assigned area

The Opportunity

Are you someone who thrives in motion — who sees a shifting landscape as an invitation, not an obstacle? Praxis Health is building the future of primary care, and we need a leader ready to build it with us.

As Director of Primary Care, you’ll own a geographic region end-to-end — its performance, its people, and its potential. This is not a role for someone who wants to maintain; it’s for someone who wants to transform. You’ll drive the transition to value-based care, lead a diverse team of clinic managers and providers, and create care experiences that patients remember for all the right reasons.

You’ll have real authority and real accountability: full P&L ownership, a seat at the strategic table, and the autonomy to design regional initiatives that move the needle.

Compensation

This position offers a salary of $140k annually, commensurate with experience, plus a comprehensive benefits package. Final compensation reflects the candidate’s background, qualifications, and alignment with the scope of the role.

What Sets You Apart

  • Builder mentality — you create, you don’t just manage
  • Thrives in ambiguity and leads others through uncertainty
  • Data-driven decision-making with a bias toward action
  • Entrepreneurial energy with a track record of initiating change
  • Exceptional communicator across all levels of an organization
  • Financially fluent — you translate numbers into operational strategy
  • Committed people developer who builds high-functioning teams
  • Deep healthcare knowledge with an eye on what’s coming next

Key Responsibilities

  • Design and execute region-specific objectives that advance corporate strategy
  • Attract and recruit medical providers across employment, partnership, or management models
  • Use predictive analytics, AI dashboards, and operational data to drive informed decisions
  • Supervise and develop clinic managers, nurse care coordinators, and physicians/APPs
  • Manage a regional budget with full P&L accountability and a focus on cost containment
  • Monitor local, state, and national healthcare shifts — then act on them proactively
  • Ensure compliance with Certified Rural Health Clinic (RHC) requirements
  • Ensure compliance with Patient Centered Medical Home (PCPCH) model standards
  • Drive successful execution of quality-based payment models
  • Represent Praxis Health with local and state agencies
  • Champion continuous improvement and innovative process adoption across your region
  • Develop and implement strategic initiatives in alignment with executive leadership

Qualifications

Minimum Education

Bachelor’s degree in Healthcare Administration, Business Administration, Health Administration, or equivalent — or a licensed healthcare professional with relevant management experience.

Minimum Experience

5 years managing employees in a clinic setting or equivalent; proven track record of leading teams through change and organizational development.
