Job Summary

The Senior Vice President for Health Sciences ( SVPHS ) is responsible to the President of the University of Utah for the coordination and administration of the academic agenda and health services in the health–related schools and the health care system of the University of Utah.

The SVPHS is responsible for ensuring the quality of the intellectual mission, the clinical mission, and the fiscal health of all matters relating to the health sciences.

That responsibility requires the SVPHS to exert effective leadership in strategic planning, quality control, the business of health care, the culture of health care, and recruitment.

The SVPHS position is mirrored by the Senior Vice President ( SVP ) for Academic Affairs, who has responsibility for the academic mission of the rest of the University.

These two SVP positions, along with the President to whom they report, form the senior leadership of the University of Utah, and their history of collaboration, collegiality, and shared responsibility have proven remarkably effective for the University.

The SVPHS also serves as Chief Executive Officer ( CEO ) of the University of Utah Health (U of U Health), with fiduciary and fiscal responsibility for more than 70 percent of the University's expense budget as reflected in the academic, clinical, and research enterprises of hospitals and clinics within U of U Health, U of U Health Plans, University of Utah Medical Group, the Spencer Fox Eccles School of Medicine, School of Dentistry, College of Pharmacy, College of Nursing, College of Health, Associated Regional and University Pathologists ( ARUP ), and Eccles Health Sciences Library.

Additionally, the SVPHS represents U of U Health internally and externally with the University academic community, healthcare professionals in Utah, and the surrounding intermountain states, as well as federal and state legislators.

The SVPHS coordinates relationships among U of U Health and its major clinical affiliates.

U of U Health is exceptionally well aligned by structure and shared values yet demonstrates a high level of responsibility and accountability at the unit level.

This unique culture fosters innovation, integration, and rapid response to opportunities, as well as the development and promotion of talent, and is an important component of the organization's success.

The new SVPHS must be an individual who demonstrates a leadership style that is compatible with this culture, as well as one who embraces the change leadership necessary to succeed in a rapidly evolving environment.


Full Job Description:
The role of the SVPHS will include a wide range of responsibilities, including but not limited to the following:


Strategic Vision – Develop, articulate, and implement a strategic vision for U of U Health that is consistent with the U of U Health strategic plan.

Advocate for U of U Health's multiple missions. Exhibit a service and community orientation to unite the community and meet the needs of underserved populations.

Inspire a complex organization to a common purpose with the business acumen required to successfully grow a multi–billion–dollar enterprise that exists for the common good.

Culture – Develop and foster an environment of respect, collaboration, competence, transparency, innovation, and principle–driven management.

Maintain a positive work environment, promoting a service–oriented culture, and a culture of inclusion and engagement where everyone is valued.

Discern and build upon current cultural strengths.

Business and Operations – Leverage the strengths of the clinical enterprise with the academic/research enterprise.

Provide overall guidance and direction to ensure U of U Health is operated in an ethical, efficient, and financially–sound manner and that capital is utilized in the most efficient way.

Develop a structured process to optimize decision–making and process outcomes. Ensure continuation of clinical excellence in quality, cost and patient experience.

Governance – Work in close collaboration with other U of U Health and University of Utah leaders to provide leadership and direction for U of U Health and all health sciences academic programs.

Organizational Relationships – Optimize the internal organization of U of U Health, establishing clear structures of responsibility and authority to support highly efficient and effective patient care, research, and education functions.

Community Relationships – Cultivate strong, credible and trusting relationships with alumni, donors, government leaders, national peers, and related external stakeholders in advancing the mission and goals of U of U Health.

Act as an effective representative, advocate and spokesperson for U of U Health with various community, governmental and citizen organizations.

Fundraising – Serve as an ambassador to donors and industry partners. Convert relationships and strategic vision into philanthropic funding to advance the agenda of U of U Health.

People – Select, recruit, develop and lead a cohesive, results–oriented senior management team. Invest in retention, development and engagement of faculty and staff throughout the organization.

Minimum Qualifications

Executive Leadership in Complex Academic Environments

Substantial and progressive leadership experience within academic health centers at the level of dean, department chair, institute director, or similar leadership role within a large academic health center.

Record of Academic Excellence

Balanced and in–depth knowledge and recognized excellence across the spectrum of community collaboration, education, research, and patient care.

Systems Thinker

Leader with a broad institutional mindset and understanding of how to be a "university citizen".

Business Acumen

Comfort with accountability for a $5.7B operating budget.

Skilled in Philanthropy

Experience with strengthening existing and cultivating new donor relationships.

Terminal Degree in the Health Sciences

With a strong record of scholarship, and national/international recognition and academic credentials sufficient to engender respect within U of U Health and the community at large and recognized history of dedication to clinical care.
