Chief Operating Officer Skilled Nursing at Wealthy Group of Companies LLC

This opportunity sits within a large and well-established skilled nursing organization that has built a strong reputation for stability, operational maturity, and consistent performance across a broad regional footprint. The company manages a substantial portfolio of facilities supported by seasoned regional directors, well-aligned VPs, and a leadership culture that emphasizes accountability, collaboration, and long-term sustainability. The organization is not in "fix-it mode" - it is strong as-is - and the next phase of leadership is about refinement, measured growth, and shaping the future identity of the company.

The incoming COO will lead day-to-day operational strategy, elevate performance across multiple markets, and serve as an executive counterpart to regional and facility leadership teams. The position requires regular travel, including consistent visits to company offices in Indiana, Illinois, and Tennessee, along with monthly corporate leadership meetings. This role carries a clear and intentional pathway to transition into the CEO position and calls for someone who blends operational rigor with strategic vision.
