Executive Director

The Company seeks an Executive Director to provide strategic direction and oversee operations across a multi-site behavioral health and social services organization. The role includes guiding the organization through changes in public funding and regulation, overseeing financial health and service quality, and developing sustainable growth opportunities. The Executive Director will lead senior staff, strengthen organizational culture, partner with the Board, and build relationships with government agencies, funders, and community stakeholders. Responsibilities also include ensuring regulatory compliance, managing risk, supporting continuous improvement, and representing the organization in public and policy settings. Candidates should have at least five years of progressively responsible leadership experience in nonprofit or public-sector human services or behavioral health, including executive-level oversight of complex operations and senior teams. Experience with multi-million-dollar budgets, government contracts, revenue development, organizational change, and Board partnership is important; familiarity with public behavioral health systems, clinical services, and residential care regulations is valued. A master’s degree in social work, public administration, business, or a related field is preferred, while clinical licensure is an asset but not required. Strong communication, judgment, resilience, and people leadership are essential; bilingual English and Spanish skills are a plus.
