The Opportunity

A pediatric Level 1 Trauma Center is adding CRNAs to its anesthesia care team. This is high-acuity pediatric anesthesia — roughly 13,000 OR cases a year across 15 operating rooms and imaging/IR — without the lifestyle cost that usually comes with it: no call, no weekend shifts, no holiday coverage. You work a set 8- or 10-hour day starting at 0700, and then you go home.

You'll work alongside pediatric anesthesiologists in a care team model with full physician, CRNA, and nursing support in every room. For CRNAs looking to build or deepen neonatal and pediatric expertise, the case volume and trauma designation here deliver exposure most facilities can't — with structured supervision rather than sink-or-swim.

The retirement package stands out for the field: alongside a matched 401(k), the organization offers a mega backdoor Roth option and a deferred compensation plan — vehicles usually reserved for physician packages that meaningfully accelerate long-term wealth building at this income level.

Compensation & Benefits

• Salary: $250K–$290K based on experience (tiers: 0–2 / 2–5 / 5+ years)
• Sign-on bonus scaled to commitment length

• Combined CME/PTO: 291 hours (0–5 yrs) or 331 hours (5+ yrs) — over 7 weeks at the senior tier
• $3,500 annual CME allowance
• 401(k) with employer match, mega backdoor Roth, and deferred compensation plan
• Comprehensive health benefits

What We're Looking For

• BSN and graduation from an accredited, AANA-approved nurse anesthesia program
• Current CRNA certification (NBCRNA)
• Ohio license (or eligibility — credentialing support provided)
• PALS certification

Preferred: 1–3 years of neonatal and/or pediatric experience — but new grads with pediatric interest are encouraged to apply
