Responsibilities
Position Overview
The Florida Quality Administrator provides strategic and operational leadership for Quality and Safety across the Jacksonville, Florida practice, partnering with physician, nursing, administrative, and other clinical leaders to advance measurable outcomes for patients and teams.
This is an on-site, in-person leadership role based in Jacksonville, Florida. The Administrator is expected to be embedded in and visible across the Jacksonville practice, building strong relationships with clinical and operational leaders and maintaining a close connection to the teams and environments in which care is delivered.
This leader will be responsible not simply for managing quality and safety activities, but for helping shape what Quality and Safety must become. The Administrator will translate enterprise strategy and capabilities into the Jacksonville practice, identify and address site-specific opportunities, and ensure that learning and innovation from Rochester inform and strengthen the broader Mayo Clinic enterprise.
The Administrator will bring demonstrated expertise in quality, safety, healthcare improvement, clinical operations, or a related field and will be expected to lead effectively in a complex, highly matrixed environment. The successful candidate will combine strategic thinking with disciplined execution; use data to identify opportunities and drive accountability; build trusted partnerships with clinical and operational leaders; and simplify, standardize, and improve how quality and safety work is accomplished.
As healthcare and the Quality and Safety field evolve, this leader will also help redesign the work itself—leveraging data, analytics, AI, automation, and emerging technologies to reduce manual and low-value activity, strengthen decision-making, and create capacity for higher-value work. The Administrator will foster a culture of curiosity, continuous improvement, learning, and accountability while modeling Mayo Clinic's values and commitment to the needs of the patient.
