About Us
Greenbrook Medical is building the new standard in primary care.
We deliver high-touch, relationship-based care through neighborhood clinics, grounded in a simple belief: every senior deserves the kind of care we would want for our own families. Our model prioritizes time with patients, strong care coordination, and a personalized approach that improves outcomes while lowering total cost of care.
We take full accountability for patient outcomes and overall cost of care, aligning clinical excellence with disciplined execution. That commitment shows up in our results, including a patient Net Promoter Score of 91, compared to 32 for typical healthcare organizations.
Rooted in Tampa Bay and partnered with Tampa General Hospital, we are entering an exciting phase of growth. Backed by strong unit economics, experienced operators, and a proven playbook, we are looking for builders and operators who want to help scale a healthcare platform designed to deliver better care, better coordination, and better outcomes for seniors.
About The Role
Greenbrook is scaling patients and clinics aggressively, and growth touches nearly every part of the organization. This seat is where the data, forecasts, and cross-functional dependencies come together to make that growth more predictable and actionable. You'll build the visibility and operating infrastructure that helps Growth move with clarity and keeps the broader organization aligned as we scale.
As Director, Growth Operations, you own four things:
- The analytical foundation: the growth model, budget construction, and the dashboards and data infrastructure the growth function runs on; all with an eye towards making growth observable
- The operating cadence: OKRs, leadership reporting, decision tracking, and documentation, delivered on predictable rhythms
- The cross-functional interface: You own the dependencies growth creates and make sure no partner team is surprised by it, from clinical ops to recruiting
- Strategic analysis: the workstreams behind expansion, payer transfer, and acquisition decisions, driven from framing through recommendation
This is a high-autonomy role. You take ambiguous, high-stakes problems and drive them end-to-end without needing direction. You operate as a peer to the Director of Growth and Director of Marketing: they own outcomes and execution; you make their decisions better-informed and the function's performance visible, measurable, and trusted. You report to the VP of Growth & Population Health.
Location: New York City strongly preferred (Hybrid). Open to exceptional remote candidates.
What You'll Do
Make Growth Predictable and Observable
- Own the growth model: projected conversions by clinic, staffing ratios, panel maturity, and scenario planning for expansions. Proactively surface the cross-functional dependencies the model exposes, such as clinical capacity, staffing, or onboarding throughput, and resolve them directly with those teams
- Develop the Growth budget: translate enterprise CAC targets into channel-specific budgets with the Directors of Growth and Marketing, and report budget vs. actuals to report CAC performance
- Make growth observable: KPIs, business logic, dashboards, and data accuracy. You are the source of truth to understand how the growth team is performing
- Own our HubSpot instance, inclusive of workflow design, dashboards and user management and set the technology investment roadmap for the growth function, including AI enablement
- Identify and execute process improvements to keep the growth team ahead of our scale
Run the Operating Cadence
- Own the annual and quarterly OKR process for the Growth team end-to-end, including alignment with partner teams and the review cadence
- Deliver reporting to the growth team and leadership team on timely, predictable cadences. Own growth leadership team agenda, follow ups and decision tracking
- Manage growth team documentation. Ensure our knowledge hub is up to date and has clear owners across the growth function
Connect Growth and Operations
- Own physician capacity framework and triggers in partnership with the Director of Growth and Operations leaders. Collaborate with recruiting team and advocate for capacity expansion upon capacity framework triggers
- Proactively identify cross-functional dependencies to and from the growth team, document those dependencies and manage them on an ongoing basis
Lead Strategic Analysis
- Own the analytical workstreams behind strategic decisions: payer transfer modeling, acquisition due diligence support, and channel CAC/ROI analysis.
- Provide proactive analyses to guide growth leadership decisions
What Success Looks Like
- Growth Enablement: Growth has the data, systems, and operational clarity needed to consistently achieve panel-fill and year-end patient growth targets.
- Forecasting & Decision Support: Growth forecasts reliably reflect actual performance within agreed-upon tolerance bands, giving leadership confidence to make informed decisions.
- Operational Infrastructure: Dashboards, HubSpot, and the Growth model are accurate, aligned, and trusted as the source of truth for Growth reporting and decision-making.
- OKR & Execution Discipline: Growth OKRs are clearly aligned to company priorities, consistently tracked, and reported on time each quarter.
- Cross-Functional Partnership: Marketing, Growth, and key cross-functional leaders have high confidence in the quality of data, insights, and operational support provided.
- Business Outcomes: Greenbrook achieves its year-end patient count and panel-fill targets.
- Metrics you'll own: Forecasting accuracy, Growth data/reporting confidence, and peer satisfaction among Marketing, Growth, and key cross-functional leaders.
- Shared outcomes: Year-end patient count vs. target and panel-fill rate vs. target.
About You
You bring:
- 8–12+ years of experience in Growth Operations, Strategy & Operations, or a similar function within a high-growth healthcare or multi-site services organization.
- A track record of independently owning complex, ambiguous workstreams end-to-end and influencing executive-level decisions.
- Experience managing people or demonstrated readiness to build and lead a high-performing team.
- Bachelor's degree required; advanced degree preferred.
- A mindset grounded in our core values of Heart, Excellence, Accountability, Resilience, and Teamwork
You'll stand out if you:
- Think analytically: Build models, design dashboards, interpret complex data, and translate insights into clear business decisions.
- Drive complex projects: Lead cross-functional initiatives from strategy through execution, keeping stakeholders aligned and driving results.
- Simplify complexity: Bring structure and clarity to ambiguous problems and turn them into actionable plans.
- Are AI-native: Use modern AI tools thoughtfully and have a track record of building or implementing AI-enabled tools and workflows that support business goals.
- Communicate with clarity: Adapt your communication to different audiences, including executives and cross-functional partners, and proactively close gaps.
- Own the outcome: Bring a high bias for action, follow through on commitments, and consistently close loops without needing to be chased.

Chief Operating Officer Jobs in New York: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a chief operating officer in New York?
Becoming a chief operating officer in New York typically requires an advanced degree, most often an MBA from a recognized institution, combined with a long progression through senior management roles in operations, finance, or a sector-specific discipline. New York does not require a state-issued license for this role, but employers in regulated industries like healthcare or financial services expect relevant certifications such as a CPA, CFA, or healthcare administration credential. Building a record in a major New York sector, particularly finance, media, or healthcare, is the most direct path to COO candidacy.
How much do chief operating officers make in New York?
Chief operating officers in New York earn a median of about $257,980 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $140,410 for the lowest 10% to over $657,630 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire chief operating officers in New York?
Employers hiring chief operating officers in New York right now include Essen Health Care, Regeneron, and Columbia University, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. New York's concentration of global financial institutions, large hospital networks, and major media and technology companies means COO demand is distributed across a wide range of industries rather than confined to a single sector.
Which New York cities have the most chief operating officer jobs?
The cities with the most chief operating officer openings in New York are New York, Brooklyn, and Bronx. New York City dominates due to its unmatched density of corporate headquarters, financial institutions, and large nonprofit and healthcare systems, while Albany draws COO demand from state government agencies and healthcare networks, and Buffalo reflects growing regional employer investment in operations leadership.
Are there remote chief operating officer jobs in New York?
Yes, but they're rare. About 47% of chief operating officer openings tied to New York are remote or hybrid as of August 2026, reflecting the hands-on nature of enterprise operations leadership, which typically requires in-person presence for board engagement, team management, and facility oversight. The portions of the role most amenable to remote work involve strategic planning, financial analysis, and executive stakeholder communication.
How can I get hired as a chief operating officer in New York with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is through a senior director or VP of Operations role at a mid-size New York company, where the scope of responsibility closely mirrors a COO function without the formal title. Large New York hospital systems and financial services firms often run high-potential leadership development programs that advance directors into C-suite pipelines. Lateral moves from roles like director of strategy, VP of finance, or general manager in a New York industry like healthcare, media, or professional services are the most common stepping stones. An MBA from a New York-area institution adds credibility when formal executive experience is limited.
Where can I find and apply to chief operating officer jobs in New York?
You can find and apply to chief operating officer jobs in New York on Migrate Mate, which lists current New York openings updated regularly. Search the listings to find roles that match your experience level, industry background, and location preference across New York City and the broader state, then apply directly to the ones that fit.
