Executive Director - Assisted Living

Emerson House

Executive Director

In short, you are the CEO of the assisted living/memory care community, driving comprehensive business results forward at that community. This includes ensuring we are caring for each resident the absolute best we can, ensuring all team members are trained and educated, we are staffed appropriately, a budget is being adhered to, our occupancy is in alignment with company goals, and more. We want you to run the community as if it is your own business, and we have the support to help you and are excited to partner with you to achieve all of these goals.

Why join the Prestige Care Family in the Executive Director role?

Not all Executive Director roles in the assisted living space are the same – we like to think we have something different and exceptional to offer!

  • We have a strong promote-from-within culture, with a defined career path so you can level up your career to a regional or multi-site role.
  • A competitive and comprehensive benefits package (medical/dental/vision/EAP/401k match, etc.) coming with 3 weeks of PTO on top of standard holidays.
  • Strong regional team to support you every step of the way – you would have a regional sales, nurse, and operational partner to help you.
  • Comprehensive onboarding and training/development program for all new Executive Directors.
  • Our 35+ year old, family-owned and operated organization (with over 80 locations in 8 states) means we aren't too small, but not too big. You are known here.

In this job, every day you will…

  • Provide direct and indirect supervision of the community operation along with training, coaching, counseling, and performance evaluations of all staff members.
  • Ensure that the nursing services provided meet the needs of the residents in accordance to the developed service plans and the service plans meet the required state codes and company policies.
  • Ensure that census expectations are met and that the resident admission process documentation is completed in a timely manner and in accordance with established policy and procedure.
  • Oversee the recruitment and retention of qualified staff throughout the residence, making sure background checks, reference checks and licenses are cleared before the employee is released to work on the floor.
  • Motivate employees through staff appreciation, recognition, and incentive programs. Promotes positive employee relations, addresses concerns timely and resolves grievances as quickly as reasonably possible.
  • Oversee the community budget, providing guidance and training to department heads on the maintenance of the overall community budget.
  • Monitor operations of the community on regular basis and prepares quality review audits and monthly variance reports.

Education & Experience needed to qualify:

You will need the appropriate certification or license by state regulations to run an assisted living/memory care/residential care facility, etc. An Associates Degree and a minimum of two years working in geriatrics or three years in a management position, with experience with budgeting, staff development, training and scheduling. Additional coursework in management are an asset. Ability to creatively problem-solve in both resident care and employee management situations. Must be able to perform essential job duties with or without reasonable accommodations.

Ways you can advance beyond the Executive Director role:

Once you master this role, you could consider the Sr. Executive Director, Operations Specialist, Regional Director of Operations jobs with Prestige Care.

EOE/M/F/VETS/DISABLED – At Prestige, it is our promise to personally touch lives every day. It is a philosophy of caring based on our core values of integrity, trust, commitment, and respect, that are at the center of all that we do. We are committed to a diverse and inclusive workforce that represents all of us, coming from different experiences, cultures, backgrounds, and viewpoints.
