Nursing Director

About the role

What if your nursing leadership experience could help children with serious illnesses spend a week focusing on being kids instead of patients? If you've built a career caring for children and leading teams and are looking for an opportunity where your leadership directly impacts campers and families, we'd love to talk with you. Flying Horse Farms offers a unique nursing leadership opportunity that extends beyond a traditional healthcare setting. It's a place where children with serious illnesses can swim, fish, climb ropes courses, make friends, and simply enjoy being kids, all while receiving exceptional medical support from a dedicated clinical team. We're seeking a Nursing Director who is excited to lead nursing operations while helping create life-changing experiences for campers and their families. This role combines pediatric nursing expertise, leadership, operations, and relationship-building in a way that few healthcare positions can. As a member of the Camp Operations Team, you'll work collaboratively across the organization to support camp-wide readiness, safety, quality, and the overall camper experience. You'll build trusted relationships with campers, families, volunteers, and healthcare partners while helping ensure every camp experience is both safe and unforgettable. You are comfortable in your stretch zone, whether improvising to hang feeding tubing from a bunk bed at 3 a.m. or tackling a complex organizational challenge. You balance advocacy for clinical priorities with shared ownership of camp-wide goals and are excited to dream big, solve problems, and grow the reach and impact of Flying Horse Farms.
