Background

About Josh Cherrix

I’m a strategic healthcare leader with over 13 years of experience driving operational excellence and service line growth across both academic and non-academic health systems. With a foundation in nursing and advanced degrees in business and healthcare leadership, I bring a unique lens to leading complex, multidisciplinary teams in high-stakes environments. My career spans cardiovascular and oncology operations, with a proven track record in strategic planning, financial oversight, and process redesign. I’ve led large-scale initiatives to improve access, optimize workflows, and enhance patient care—all while building strong physician and team engagement. Whether it's launching new programs, navigating market dynamics, or guiding teams through change, I approach each challenge with curiosity, collaboration, and a commitment to purpose-driven leadership. Currently, I’m proud to serve as Director of Business Operations for the Oncology Service Line at UVA Health, where I support enterprise growth through data-driven strategy and service line integration.
