Job Description

Executive Director – Hospice Leadership - Crown Hospice - Salary: $100,000-$120,000 DOE

Hospice leadership requires something rare. Hospice work is deeply meaningful — and deeply demanding. The right leader understands both. It requires the ability to lead with heart while leading with strength - supporting teams who carry heavy emotional loads, while still ensuring accountability, operational excellence, and exceptional patient care.

At Crown Hospice, we are seeking an Executive Director who understands that hospice leadership is both a privilege and a responsibility.

For more than 28 years, Crown Hospice has served our communities with a faith-based mission rooted in compassion, dignity, and unwavering support for patients, families, and the caregivers who serve them. Our longevity reflects a commitment not only to exceptional patient care, but to supporting the dedicated teams who make hospice work possible every day.

This role calls for a leader who can balance compassion with managerial courage -- who can support a team through burnout, celebrate their calling, and still step forward when tough conversations and difficult decisions are required. If you believe leadership means serving your team while guiding them toward excellence, this role was built for you.
