    Director of Case Management

    Sanford, Florida Permanent Day Shift

    The Opportunity

    This is not a lateral move. A Director of Case Management opportunity at a Level II Trauma Center with more than 43,000 annual patient encounters — and a department of 13 to 15 FTEs to lead — is the kind of role that reshapes a career trajectory. You will work directly alongside senior clinical leadership to drive throughput, length-of-stay outcomes, and discharge planning across one of the region's most active acute care environments. If you have been waiting for a position that matches the level of work you are actually doing, this is it.

    One position is available. The schedule is weekday days, with shifts running 7 to 10 hours. Some on-call rotation and extended days may occur given the Director-level scope, and candidates should arrive prepared for the operational demands that leadership at this level carries. That said, a weekday-only structure is a meaningful quality-of-life distinction compared to most acute care Director roles currently on the market.

    The total rewards package is built for a long career, not just a first impression. Comprehensive medical, dental, vision, behavioral health, and telemedicine coverage comes standard. Retirement savings include a 401(k) with a dollar-for-dollar employer match on 3% to 9% of pay based on years of service, plus an Employee Stock Purchase Plan. Education support includes tuition assistance, student loan assistance, certification reimbursement, and a direct partnership with a nursing college for those continuing their academic path. Paid time off, paid family leave, short- and long-term disability coverage, and supplemental insurance round out the package. An annual performance bonus of 17.5% is attached to this position. Relocation assistance is available on a case-by-case basis. Compensation is competitive and commensurate with experience.

    Candidates must hold an active RN license; an RN background is strongly preferred, though LCSW-licensed candidates with the appropriate leadership depth will also be considered. A Bachelor's degree is required — a Master's in Nursing, Health Administration, or Business Administration is preferred. Most critically, a minimum of two years of recent, hands-on acute care case management leadership experience is required, and that experience must fall within the last year. This role demands someone who has genuinely led a case management department, not simply contributed to one. Certification in case management is a meaningful differentiator.

    Positions at this organizational level and with this degree of visibility do not stay open long. If your background fits the profile, the right move is to act now. Submit your information today or reach out to schedule a confidential conversation — a few minutes is all it takes to determine whether this is the right next step for your career.

    Why Sanford?

    Sanford, Florida sits on the southern shore of Lake Monroe, just north of Orlando, and it offers something many Central Florida communities do not: genuine small-city character alongside easy access to everything a major metro provides. Downtown Sanford has seen significant reinvestment over the past decade — independent restaurants, boutique retail, and a waterfront riverwalk that has become a real gathering point for residents year-round. The pace of life here is calmer than Orlando proper, but you are never far from world-class dining, professional sports, international airports, or the entertainment and cultural infrastructure that makes Central Florida one of the most dynamic regions in the country.

    For professionals relocating with families, Sanford and the surrounding Seminole County area carry a well-earned reputation for quality public schools, safe neighborhoods, and an outdoor lifestyle that most parts of the country cannot match in January. Lake Monroe and the St. Johns River put boating, fishing, and paddleboarding within minutes of most neighborhoods. Both the Atlantic coast and the Gulf coast are reachable in under two hours. And with no state income tax, every dollar of a competitive compensation package stretches further here than it would in most other markets. The combination of livability, natural access, and financial advantage makes Sanford a considerably smarter destination than it might first appear on a map.
