Lead a state-based mental health practice serving thousands of children and adolescents. Own clinical operations, drive utilization, and build a high-performing team of therapists and psychiatrists while maintaining your clinical roots.
As a Clinical Operating Director, you will own the day-to-day clinical operations for a state-based mental health pod serving thousands of patients annually. You'll drive utilization, patient access, intake workflows, and operational performance while maintaining your clinical credibility as a licensed supervisor and mentor to your team.

This role reports to VP – Behavioral Health.

Clinical Operations & Team Leadership

Hire, onboard, train, mentor staff therapists
Monitor clinical outcomes, functional assessments and drive continuous improvement
