Please excuse our directness. We only wish to save time. We need a fierce nurse: Someone who is unafraid to make tough decisions, someone who is unapologetic about her/his confidence and determination to be great, someone who is always ready for a challenge! If you are offended by the language and directness so far, we probably won't be a good fit. If you are intrigued, we hope you'll continue to read and we can work together!

We're looking for a Registered Nurse with a unique mix of nursing experience, business mindset, and career goals. You will thrive at our company as a Clinical Manager if you are...

• Driven. You're not afraid to work hard toward your goals and grow in your position to a point where you could potentially retire early and do whatever you want to do with your life once you've put in your time.
• Flexible. You're willing to do what is needed to get the job done—take care of our clients when and where they need us!—and you are willing to change your schedule around to make it happen for our clients.
• Smart. You know all the nursing things, and more importantly, you're not afraid to learn more and more every single day.
• Confident. You are not afraid to take the "bull by the horns" and lead others down a good path. You're not afraid to be the top clinical leader in our office and an integral part of a business leadership team making important decisions.
