Ballinger | Leafblad is honored to partner with Open Door Health Center on the search for its next Chief Executive Officer.

Open Door Health Center is a Federally Qualified Health Center and southern Minnesota's trusted safety-net provider of integrated medical, dental, behavioral health, and chiropractic care. For more than four decades, Open Door has served families and individuals regardless of insurance status, housing, language, or income, reaching more than 7,500 patients across more than 20 counties each year.

The next CEO will lead Open Door at a moment of real momentum — a new clinic recently opened in Shakopee, two school-based health centers underway, and a fresh strategic plan pointing the way forward. This is an opportunity for a steady, people-centered leader to unify a talented team and carry Open Door's model of accessible, whole-person care into its next chapter.

This is a full-time, in-person role based at Open Door's Mankato, Minnesota headquarters, with regular travel to the Shakopee location, school-based health centers, and community and regional meetings.
