• Excellent organizational, communication, and interpersonal skills.
• A commitment to accuracy, confidentiality, professionalism, and exceptional service.

What We Are Hoping For

Why You Should Work With Us

This is an opportunity to make a meaningful impact in a mission-driven, growing FQHC.

The position is based at our Logan Square headquarters and offers the flexibility of some hybrid work.
