Senior Operations Manager Oncology Center

For the Oncology Center, we are looking for a senior operations manager who, as an important link in operations at a strategic and tactical level, contributes to the further development of the center. Are you the experienced, flexible, and proactive operations manager who will seize this opportunity? We would love to meet you!

In the established centers, processes have been redesigned and new (consultative) structures have emerged. This means the environment in which you will work is dynamic and gives you the opportunity to contribute to a future-proof Radboudumc.

You operate under the direction of the business director and are responsible for developing and implementing policy, coordinating complex projects, and providing management information for strategic steering.

You advise strategic management on complex operational issues and provide oversight in interconnected themes. You collaborate on long-term visions and annual plans, steer based on business results, and translate societal developments into policy.

You coordinate multidisciplinary projects such as efficiency trajectories, procurement issues, and housing. You develop business cases and contribute to an adaptive and performance-enhancing culture. Additionally, you develop and analyze management information, write reports, and, together with the management, manage the planning and control cycle.

Your unique position in a center gives you the opportunity to make connections, bring people together, and improve processes and collaboration. In doing so, your goal is to relieve our healthcare professionals as much as possible by organizing processes more intelligently and saving costs. Together, we keep the care of the future affordable for everyone!

Radboudumc has undergone a period of major organizational changes. Since last year, centers have been responsible for organizing patient care. From the centers, nursing wards, outpatient clinics, and other facilities such as operating theaters are managed. These changes naturally also influence the way of collaborating with medical departments, other centers, and institutes for patient care, education, and research.

The patient care centers are organized by theme. The management of each center looks, together with the departments, the Executive Board, and other stakeholders, at how their care can best take place.

You will work within the operations office of the center. This operations office supports the center management and clinical core teams in the operations of the facilities. This support includes the process of planning, organizing, coordinating, analyzing, and adjusting activities within the center.

You are analytically strong, think ahead, and know how to translate vision into concrete actions. You have persuasiveness, are politically sensitive, and move easily within internal and external networks. You have an affinity for healthcare, education, and research and contribute to the development of future-proof patient care centers within Radboudumc.
