As the Magnet® Program Manager within the Center for Nursing Excellence, you will bring a passion for nursing excellence, professional development, and inter-professional collaboration to this highly visible role.

This is a unique opportunity for a clinical leader with a passion for mentoring, guiding, and inspiring nurses to engage in structures and processes that showcase their expertise. You will serve as an internal expert on Magnet® standards and requirements, while fostering innovation, professional practice, and performance improvement that ensures UCLA Health continues to set the benchmark for patient-centered, evidence-based care.
