About PLC-Network's History & Mission | Physician Leadership Career Network

The Physician Leadership Career Network (PLC-Network) is the only career resource exclusively for physician leadership opportunities

We launched Physician Leadership Career Network in January 2019, just prior to the start of the pandemic. It was a concept that had been brewing in the mind of Founder and CEO, Kurt Scott, for years. He’d been building and leading physician and physician executive recruitment programs for decades, but he knew there was a huge void: there was no dedicated space for physician leaders and healthcare organizations to connect.

The PLC-Network was created to fill that significant resource gap for physician leaders and for those aspiring to lead.

We offer:

A highly trafficked job board that’s exclusively for leadership opportunities. Positions are targeted exclusively to physician leaders – members are not pursuing staff positions – and there is no cost for physicians.
Membership is free to physicians, and the organization provides a direct connection between physician leaders and healthcare organizations.

What truly sets us apart is that physicians connect directly to employers on PLC-Network. We’re not growing a database, we are the great connector and growing resource center that includes:

Career counseling
Leadership training
A private credentials “vault” to house all their most important documents.
The PLC-Network Scholarship Program to help reduce tuition costs for graduate education and additional leadership training

We offer an expanding resource center with informational and educational assets targeted to healthcare organizations that need to fill their critical leadership roles. Because the organization is not a staffing firm, clients never pay placement fees.

Today, weekly page view stats are coming in at between 2.2k and 3k on average! In addition to our job posts, our blog is a physician and healthcare client favorite.

Over the next year, our focus is on continuing to grow our reach and continue coordinating and offering career resources for our physicians. We’re also in the process of creating an Advisory Board of like-minded physicians and healthcare leaders to better guide our growth and direction.

“We have a real opportunity to help physicians, driven to lead, to advance their career futures, and improve their lives. Our intent is not just another job board. We are continuing to evolve in the creation of a full career center exclusive to physician leadership.”
