About The Position

Director of Operations – South Willamette Valley (SWV) - Eugene & Springfield, Oregon
Praxis Health is seeking a collaborative, grounded, and performance-minded leader to serve as Director of Operations for our Southwest Valley region, supporting clinics across Eugene and Springfield. This role guides multi-site clinic performance through strong relationships, practical leadership, and consistent follow-through.
The Director of Operations partners closely with the Regional Administrator to ensure alignment on regional goals, financial performance, provider support/recruitment, and team development. Together, this leadership partnership supports clinic Managers, providers, Medical Assistants, and Medical Office Support teams to create stable, high-performing clinics rooted in their local communities.
The Director of Operations leads with clarity, consistency, and collaboration. This role requires an action-oriented mindset balanced with relational leadership. Success in SWV depends on earning trust, communicating transparently, and bringing teams together around shared goals.
This leader maintains strong working relationships across all levels of the organization, including providers, clinic support staff, clinic Managers, community partners, and the broader Praxis Health leadership team.
Supporting the SWV
Eugene and Springfield are communities that value relationships and local connection. Healthcare here is personal.
This role requires someone who can balance urgency with patience and move initiatives forward without losing the human element.
You understand that high performance is not about pressure, it is about clarity, partnership, and consistent follow-through.
Praxis Health is an independent, physician-founded organization built on the belief that primary care works best when it remains local, relational, and deeply connected to the communities it serves. We are not a national platform dictating from a distance. We are an Oregon-rooted organization committed to strengthening clinics from the inside out.
We empower our regional leaders to shape their markets thoughtfully, honoring the identity of each community while aligning around shared standards of accountability, quality, and sustainability. Our structure allows leaders in places like Eugene and Springfield to make decisions that fit their teams and patients, while still benefiting from the support, infrastructure, and partnership of a broader organization.
At Praxis, we believe high performance and strong culture are not opposing forces. The best clinics are built when expectations are clear, relationships are strong, and leaders show up consistently. We invest in our people, we value transparency, and we expect ownership at every level.
If you are someone who leads with integrity, builds trust across providers and staff, and believes that sustainable clinics are built through collaboration and steady follow-through, we would welcome the opportunity to connect.
Join us in strengthening independent primary care in Southwest Valley and across Oregon.
