This is an exciting opportunity to build a transformative, justice-centered healthcare system in the Seattle region.

Tubman Center for Health & Freedom is looking for an experienced healthcare administration professional to join our team. We’re searching for a “system defector” that understands the ins and outs of how existing healthcare systems perpetuate harms and is looking to invest their talents in building an alternative model of care -- one that centers on the patient and not the systems. The ideal candidate knows the parameters of “the box” yet is willing to think and design outside of it to develop and implement creative solutions that meet the needs of our communities.

The Tubman Center for Health & Freedom addresses health and wellness from both systemic and clinical approaches. By practicing medicine from the intersection of health and freedom, we address both the health of our patients as well as the factors that determine their health. Tubman Health provides primary and preventative care, community resources, social services, political education and advocacy. Tubman Health is a community

organization committed to the principles of healing and people’s liberation from systems that make us unwell. We work to advance health justice, culturally appropriate care, and integrative medicine. We are laying the groundwork for an innovative community health clinic that specializes in meeting the needs of marginalized communities in

Seattle’s Puget Sound region. The Healthcare Administrator reports to the co-directors, the COO and CEO.
