Build the Financial Engine Powering the Future of Healthcare

At EPIC Health, we are more than a healthcare organization—we are a rapidly expanding, multi-entity healthcare ecosystem committed to increasing access to high-quality, integrated care nationwide.

Our organization spans medical practices, laboratories, pharmacies, technology platforms, and healthcare-related real estate. With national expansion underway, we are building a finance infrastructure designed to scale intelligently and sustainably.

We are seeking a high-performing, growth-minded NextGen Controller who is ready to step into executive financial leadership within 9–12 months. This is not a traditional back-office role. This is a strategic succession opportunity for an ambitious accounting leader prepared to build, optimize, and lead.

You will work directly with the Finance Director and current Controller, gaining mentorship while taking ownership of critical accounting functions immediately.

If you’re ready to accelerate your career and help architect the financial backbone of a national healthcare platform, this is your opportunity.
