We’re an amazing place because of who we are, not just what we achieve.

Prepare to be inspired by your colleagues. From EMTs and pharmacists to security officers and nurse anesthetists, we attract the absolute best in every field for every position. In both clinical and non-clinical work, we are compassionate AND excellent. Quick to embrace challenge. To innovate and empathize. To discover and, most importantly, to listen.

Opportunities to explore new disciplines (and move up the ranks) are virtually limitless. We rely on our empowered and accessible leadership team to set a tone of excellence. That’s why our highest levels of leaders (Dr. Corwin, Dr. Kelly and more) regularly seek insight and feedback.

Meet Dr. Steven J. Corwin, CEO
Our new visionary CEO, Dr. Steven J. Corwin, MD, has taken the helm of NewYork-Presbyterian after serving six years as Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer of the hospital. A nationally recognized healthcare leader, he’s been featured on such programs as NBC's Nightly News.

First joining the hospital in 1986, Dr. Corwin has seen NYP grow from a regional player to a global epicenter. He aims to make us THE world leader.

Dr. Corwin leapt into his new role by conducting a series of town hall meetings and sharing a vision for NYP that raises the bar. To deliver the best for patients and families, he’s launching the next-phase “Capital Plan” for hospital modernization and integrating information systems across all campuses.

Meet Dr. Robert E. Kelly, President
In addition to Dr. Corwin’s new leadership, Dr. Robert E. Kelly, MD, recently transitioned into the role of President of NYP. With the hospital since 1982, Dr. Kelly will now spearhead day-to-day operations and advance our strategic initiatives.

He’s championed the HERCULES project, an efficiency platform that positions the hospital far ahead of healthcare reform changes. Dr. Kelly also makes special a point of speaking to new employees during orientation sessions, which helps everyone appreciate the human impact of our breakthrough work.

NYP Leadership

All this marks just the beginning of Dr. Corwin’s and Dr. Kelly’s plans for this institution. They’re thrilled to position NewYork-Presbyterian as a leader of healthcare’s future—constantly finding new opportunities to bring “We put patients first” to life.

Training and Development
We value your perspective and believe in your potential. To support development, you’ll see senior leadership regularly rounding on all shifts.

From 2008-2011, NewYork-Presbyterian has ranked as one of Training Magazine’s “Top 125 Companies.” Recently, NYP was ranked 84 among global organizations in Training Magazine’s 2011 Training Top 125. The Training Top 125 is the most elite ranking among Fortune 500 organizations for training and learning development. It honors organizations that are unsurpassed in harnessing human capital.

We also sponsor an Emerging Leaders Council, putting our Master’s-prepared colleagues with 2-6 years' experience on a track to senior leadership.

In 2011, NewYork-Presbyterian ranked among Chief Learning Officer Magazine’s “Learning Elite”, the best organizations for learning and development. Forty-three companies spanning multiple industries, made the list. NYP was ranked 29 and one of only four hospitals nationally that were recognized among the best. This is a testimony to NYP’s commitment to enhancing the skills of our employees so they can provide the highest quality, most compassionate care and service to our patients and their families.

Uncommon Focus
By attracting professionals who share our passions, we’ve created an environment that manifests potential. Particularly in you. No matter where you are in your career, we have opportunities to match your goals. Better yet, we have mentors and leaders you can’t find anywhere else.

Unique to NewYork-Presbyterian:

“Celebrity” Colleagues
Your colleagues will be remarkable, awe-inspiring individuals. Newsworthy things are happening everywhere. Our very own Dr. Mehmet Oz has hosted a daily television program since 2009. Esquire magazine listed him as one of the “75 Most Influential People of the 21st Century.”

But it doesn’t stop with Dr. Oz. In summer 2012, ABC News will unveil a seven-part documentary series in the style of “Boston Med,” featuring the work of NewYork-Presbyterian employees and patients. NYP doctors, nurses, families and more will all pitch in to tell our inspiring story.

NYP Green
Decades ago, colleagues approached leadership about what NewYork-Presbyterian could do to improve the environment. These conversations created our sustainability program called NYP Green.

Our efforts today involve all parts of the hospital and generate a great deal of passion. Our trailblazing work hasn’t gone unnoticed. Just a few of our initiatives include:

The NYP Greenmarket - a farmer’s market bringing healthy foods to employees, medical students and the surrounding community.
Conference on Global Environmental Initiatives – a 2010 sustainability summit hosted at NewYork-Presbyterian/Columbia University Medical Center that welcomed world leaders and healthcare institutions.
The Employee Ride-Share Program – a web-based program that connects NYP employees interested in carpooling to work.
NYP Recycling – a hospital-wide effort to recycle the plastic water bottles, metals and non-confidential papers we use every day.
Bike to Work – a collaborative project between NYP and the New York City Department of Transportation to install convenient bike racks at hospital campuses.
