Reporting to the President and Chief Executive Officer (CEO), the Vice President, Corporate Services and Chief Financial Officer (VP/CFO) is a key member of the Executive Leadership Team (ELT), contributing to setting overall vision, direction, and priorities across a broad portfolio that intersects with all aspects of clinical and corporate operations. In addition to Finance, responsibilities include capital asset planning, budgeting, construction and redevelopment; safe and efficient medical device reprocessing; environmental services and patient porting; engineering services; facilities and property management; logistics, supply chain, procurement services, and leasing. As the senior finance leader, the VP/CFO also provides strategic financial advice to the CEO and Board and leads initiatives related to financial management, efficiency and effectiveness, working closely with senior leadership and government departments. In summary, the VP/CFO is a key player in ensuring the financial and long-term success of the organization and that the delivery of health services continues to meet the province’s needs.
This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced and energetic finance leader who wants to make a significant impact in healthcare and in the lives of New Brunswickers. As the ideal candidate, you are comfortable championing and leading critical change and bring a track record of major transformation initiatives related to financial management.

A professional accounting designation with direct experience in the Finance function in large, multi-site or complex organizations, a minimum of ten years of progressive leadership/financial management experience and demonstrated ability to work effectively in partnership with senior leaders, boards, government officials and departments round out your qualifications.
