Health Access, comprised of Health Access Foundation, a 501(c)3, and Health Access California, a 501(c)4, a consumer advocacy coalition advocating for more accessible, equitable, affordable, and quality healthcare for all Californians, seeks a bold and strategic leader, builder, advocate, and visionary to serve as its next Executive Director.

Founded in 1987, Health Access was created toward the goal of quality, affordable, equitable health care for all by building a broad coalition of member organizations representing California's diverse communities. Today, Health Access is one of the preeminent consumer advocacy coalitions in the country, a statewide leader and recognized voice in California representing health care consumers and promoting health policies toward securing and expanding coverage, protecting patients, holding the industry accountable for quality, equity, and lower costs, and encouraging a healthier state, through successful campaigns like #Health4All, #Care4AllCA, and others. By building a successful and diverse coalition of dozens of member organizations across California, Health Access has advanced policies through direct lobbying and advocacy, research, organizing, and public education, working for broad and bold solutions while also ensuring that the unique needs and experiences of their diverse constituents are reflected and responded to. In that spirit, as a host of the California LGBTQ Health and Human Services Network, Health Access has also supported advocacy and coalition-building toward advancing LGBTQ health.

Health Access seeks an Executive Director to build upon this legacy, committed to advocating for the needs of consumers, poised to expand the coalition to reflect the needs of diverse communities, and driven by a deep passion for the organization's mission. During a pivotal moment for the future of healthcare, the Executive Director will guide the organization by providing visionary leadership, as well as by enacting a strategic plan that will promote the success of the organization, its members, and California consumers. The next Executive Director will have the opportunity to continue the success of Health Access as a state model in advancing accessibility and affordability for all Californians, not limited to but especially the most vulnerable populations.

To be successful, the Executive Director will be expected to address the following key opportunities and challenges:

• Champion a vision for Health Access as the leading consumer advocacy coalition in California;
• Achieve strategic, tangible, and measurable policy wins that advance health access for all;
• Cultivate a broad and inclusive coalition that reflects the diverse needs of consumers;
• Collaborate closely and effectively with both Boards of Directors;
• Facilitate strong internal operations and ensure the ongoing financial vitality of the organization.
