Program Director - Internal Medicine Residency
HonorHealth
Location: Scottsdale, Arizona
Lead an established ACGME-accredited Internal Medicine Residency Program while helping shape the future of medical education in Arizona. HonorHealth, one of Arizona’s largest nonprofit healthcare systems, is seeking a Program Director for its Internal Medicine Residency. Candidates must be board certified and have at least five years of experience in an ACGME-accredited Internal Medicine residency program. Ambulatory, hospitalist, and internal medicine subspecialty physicians are encouraged to apply.
Why This Opportunity Stands Out:
As a smaller residency program, this position offers a unique opportunity to have a meaningful impact on every resident. As the teaching affiliate for the first medical school actually founded in the Phoenix metro area (now fifth largest city in the US), you will be on the ground floor to create the new American Medical School. AI is moving fast, and so is HonorHealth and ASU. If you are seeking an environment where new ideas are welcomed and innovation is embraced, consider joining HonorHealth, the region’s only physician lead, locally owned and managed, non-profit healthcare system.
The ASU Affiliation:
Arizona State University’s John Shufeldt School of Medicine and Medical Engineering accepted its first class in July 2026. As the school’s primary clinical affiliate, HonorHealth sits at the center of a new model of medical education — and this role carries direct influence over how that partnership develops.
- Dual Degree program earning a Master’s in Engineering
- AI Forward Teaching and Learning – Grasp of next generation Healthcare
- Excellent playground for device creation, wearables, capstone projects etc.
- ASU Academic Appointment commensurate with experience.
- ASU Tuition discounts - Core faculty receives for immediate family
- Access to cutting-edge technologies and potential device-industry collaborations
HonorHealth Commitment to Education and Research:
- 20 ACGME Residency and Fellowship Programs (and growing.)
- HonorHealth Research Institute - established in 2007 and leader in first in human clinical trials and vast clinical research division.
- Thompson Peak Medical Center, the primary teaching hospital, ranked #3 among the nation’s Top Teaching Hospitals by Fortune and recognized by Newsweek among the World’s Best Hospitals (2025).
- Arizona’s only locally owned and managed nonprofit healthcare system.
- Multiple national and regional honors for Best Places to Work, Best Hospital, Highest Physician Engagement, and Highest Patient Satisfaction.
Position Highlights:
- Generous protected administrative time with dedicated GME support.
- Open to Ambulatory, Hospitalist or Sub-specialty Clinical Practice.
- 18 IM Residents (6 per year) + 4 Transitional Interns.
- Lead curriculum development, faculty advancement and program growth.
- Teach and mentor residents and medical students.
- Competitive compensation and comprehensive benefits.
- Meaningful personal and professional influence within a smaller, close-knit residency program.
Why HonorHealth is Seeking:
- Board Certified Internal Medicine (can also be BC IM Subspecialty).
- Demonstrated success in medical education, mentorship, faculty development and scholarly activity. Current or former Program Directors are welcome, along with accomplished Associate Program Directors and experienced core faculty members ready to advance into program leadership.
Why Phoenix?
Enjoy more than 300 days of sunshine, excellent schools including #1 nationally ranked BASIS, family-friendly communities, outstanding dining and year-round access to hiking, golf, lakes and mountains.
Confidential inquiries and applications are welcomed.

Mid Level Program Director Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get a mid level program director job?
Position yourself around demonstrated ownership. Highlight programs you managed from planning through delivery, decisions you made without close supervision, and measurable results like timelines hit or budgets managed. A strong application shows you've already operated at this level, not that you're ready to try it. Tailor your resume to reflect scope and accountability, not just tasks completed.
Which companies hire mid level program directors?
Companies hiring mid level program directors right now include Jobot, Lifepoint Health, and Touro University, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of September 2026. Hiring at this level covers large enterprises with structured program offices as well as mid-size organizations that rely on program directors to carry significant operational responsibility without a large support layer beneath them.
Are there remote mid level program director jobs?
Yes, remote and hybrid opportunities are widely available at this level. About 23% of mid level program director openings are remote or hybrid as of September 2026, reflecting how much of this work, stakeholder coordination, reporting, and cross-team facilitation, can be done effectively without being on-site every day.
How do I move up to a mid level program director role?
The path from entry level to mid level is built on accumulating ownership, not just time. Focus on taking on progressively larger projects, documenting measurable outcomes, and developing skills in stakeholder communication, risk management, and resource coordination. Mentoring newer colleagues and seeking roles where you make decisions independently are the clearest signals that you're operating at a mid level standard.
Which industries hire the most mid level program directors?
Mid Level program director roles concentrate in Healthcare & Medical Services, Education, and Staffing & Recruiting, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of September 2026. These sectors tend to run complex, multi-team initiatives that require experienced program directors who can manage scope and keep stakeholders aligned without requiring day-to-day direction from senior leadership.
