Job Description

Polaris Placement specializes in helping medical professionals like you find a career path that fulfills your needs - personal, financial, and aspirational.

But hey, we know there are no perfect jobs. However, there are better ones.

This is your chance to lead where teamwork and tenacity matter most.

A long-standing, not-for-profit healthcare network — a true cornerstone of medical excellence in New York City — is seeking an experienced, positive, and forward-thinking nurse leader to serve as Director of Nursing for its 55-bed Med-Surg service .

You’ll guide a dedicated care team across both medical and surgical units, where RNs work 12-hour shifts and ancillary staff 8s. The ideal candidate thrives on collaboration, champions shared governance , and keeps the team inspired, accountable, and growing together on a Pathway to Excellence journey.

If you’ve ever been the go-to Nurse Manager, Supervisor, or Charge Nurse who keeps calm when things get wild, this role has your name written all over it.

Why You’ll Love It Here

This respected network has been serving one of NYC’s most vibrant and diverse communities for generations — with compassion, commitment, and pride. You’ll be part of a mission-driven environment that values autonomy, humor, and teamwork as much as clinical excellence.

This is your opportunity to shape the future of nursing practice, mentor emerging leaders, and help drive a culture that celebrates growth, purpose, and gratitude.

What You’ll Bring

  • RN with active state license (BSN required; MSN or CNL preferred or in progress)
  • 3–5 years of leadership experience in acute care, med-surg, or surgical nursing
