  • Built-In Support Systems – Partner with Area Directors, operations leaders, and the Clinical Excellence Team to ensure your teams and families have what they need to succeed.

  • Assent-Based, Ethical ABA – Champion a clinical model rooted in assent, Practical Functional Assessment, and Skills-Based Treatment, fully integrated into Centria's systems.

  • Career Growth That's Clear – Gain access to advanced leadership training, clinical forums, and opportunities to move into area leadership roles.

  • Support Systems Wherever You Land
    • Clinical Directors, Area Clinical Directors, and Clinical Excellence Leaders
    • Dedicated scheduling, admin, and operational support

  • We Invest in You – From CEU stipends and paid CEU days to exclusive internal training events, we're serious about keeping you sharp and helping you level up.

  • Perks That Actually Matter – Annual, all-inclusive vacation for two, early wage access, 401k with company match, and full benefits package.

Your Role & Impact as a Director of Clinical Services
  • Drive Client Progress – Support your team in making data-driven decisions by reviewing treatment plans, monitoring outcomes, and ensuring every child receives individualized, evidence-based care.

  • Mentor Clinical Teams – Lead, coach, and develop Supervising Clinicians through regular case reviews, performance feedback, and ongoing support to ensure consistent, high-quality therapy.

  • Lead Clinical Excellence – Use Centria's internal tools and standards to evaluate treatment fidelity, supervision practices, and clinical impact across your team.

  • Deliver Targeted Training – Facilitate skill-building workshops and group training for Supervising Clinicians and Behavior Technicians to enhance clinical performance and maintain best practices.

  • Collaborate Across Functions – Partner with Area Directors and Operations Leaders to align staffing, caseloads, compliance, and service quality across your region.

  • Support Elevate Growth – Contribute to the development of future clinicians by supporting our Elevate practicum supervision and mentorship program.

  • Champion the Centria Experience – Conduct caregiver check-ins and ensure families feel supported, heard, and engaged throughout their journey with Centria.
What You'll Need
  • Experience That Matters – At least 3 years of experience working with children diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder in a clinical setting.

  • Leadership Background – 3+ years of supervisory experience preferred, OR a strong track record of successful case oversight and Behavior Technician mentorship at Centria (minimum 2 years), with preference given to those who have mentored practicum students.

  • Crisis Management Skills – Experience navigating challenging clinical situations and supporting teams through high-stress moments is highly valued.

  • Clinical Fluency in Best Practices – Familiarity with Practical Functional Assessment (PFA), Skills-Based Treatment (SBT), and assent-based ABA practices preferred.

At Centria, clinical leadership is about more than managing caseloads; it's about shaping the future of care. Apply today and take the next step in your leadership journey.
