This is a rare opportunity for a forward thinking, physician executive to transform and lead the MCC in its unwavering commitment to healthcare improvement and impact across Canada.

At its core, the MCC is a national not-for-profit organization committed to ensuring the highest level of medical care through excellence in the assessment of physicians. This commitment is a promise to the patients in Canada it serves, the physicians it assesses, and the many national, provincial, and territorial partners with which it collaborates. The MCC develops, administers, and scores objective, independent examinations, verifies, and stores physician credentials, registers examination candidates from across the country and around the world, and maintains the Canadian Medical Register. MCC assesses close to 10,000 medical students and graduates every year through examinations offered in both official languages in Canada and in 80 other countries. Its ongoing research and development ensure that MCC remains at the forefront of innovation in medical assessment.

Reporting directly to a 12-member, skills-based Council, the CEO, who is also the Registrar of MCC, sets and supports MCC’s strategic direction, vision, and mission. With the goal to enhance MCC’s national profile and critical role in healthcare in Canada, the CEO builds and fosters a high-performing culture that embraces and is resilient to change and committed to delivering value and meaningful impact. The CEO provides mentorship, leadership, and support to the executive team and approximately 130 staff. As a spokesperson and authoritative voice, the CEO plays a national advocacy role, engaging and collaborating with governments, policy makers and academic and healthcare partners across the country on matters related to medical education, physician assessment, health human resources, and health system improvement.

As the ideal candidate, you are an exceptional and innovative, physician leader with vision, strategic foresight, and business acumen. You are respected for your diplomacy, insight, and collaborative nature and for your administrative and organizational management skills in organizations of similar size, scope, and complexity. As a leader, you create the space, time, and environment for your staff and senior leaders to engage in critical and generative conversations. You are a trusted partner and skilled relationship builder with excellent communications skills. You have a Medical Degree and hold the Licentiate of the Medical Council of Canada (LMCC), and throughout your medical leadership career, have demonstrated a commitment to equity, diversity, inclusion, anti-racism, social justice, and Indigenization. Your master’s degree in business, health, public administration or a related field would be an asset as would be your ability to converse in English and French and your willingness to improve your language proficiency.
