Job Description
This is an exciting opportunity to join the leadership team at UVA Health's Center for Advanced Practice (CAP) — the health system's professional home for advanced practice providers (APPs). The APP Manager for Medical ICU and Hospital Medicine is more than a "lead APP" role: it is a front-line leadership position responsible for the day-to-day management, professional development, and practice standards of two high-acuity APP teams. The successful candidate will bridge clinical expertise with systems-level administration, serving as the primary point of accountability for team performance, recruiting and onboarding, and local practice standards, while representing MICU and Hospital Medicine APP interests in system-level discussions. This manager will maintain an active clinical practice representing approximately 60-70% of total effort, with the remaining time allocated to management-related responsibilities. This structure ensures the manager remains a credible, front-line clinical leader who understands the realities of the teams they support. The ideal candidate is an experienced and confident clinician with a genuine desire to support fellow clinicians, deliver — and help others deliver — superlative patient care, pursue ways to enhance the contribution of advanced practice to the clinical mission, and both identify and effect change where gaps exist.
