Head of Programme Management

People Encouraging People

Lead a Team That Changes Lives

We're seeking a dynamic, mission-driven leader to oversee our Assertive Community Treatment (ACT) team-an evidence-based program supporting individuals with serious mental illness in the community.

As Program Manager, you'll guide a multidisciplinary team delivering high-impact, community-based care that reduces hospitalizations and helps people build stable, independent lives.

This role is ideal for a leader who thrives in fast-paced environments, values teamwork, and is passionate about improving systems of care.

What You'll Do

Team Leadership & Supervision

  • Supervise and support a multidisciplinary team (therapists, nurses, case managers, peer specialists)
  • Provide clinical and administrative oversight
  • Coach staff to manage complex cases and crisis situations
  • Foster a culture of accountability, collaboration, and resilience

Program Operations

  • Ensure fidelity to the ACT model and best practices
  • Monitor caseloads, staffing ratios, and service delivery
  • Oversee scheduling, coverage, and daily team meetings
  • Manage program performance metrics and outcomes

Quality & Compliance

  • Ensure compliance with state, federal, and payer requirements
  • Prepare for audits and maintain documentation standards
  • Implement continuous quality improvement initiatives

Community & System Coordination

  • Collaborate with hospitals, courts, housing providers, and community partners
  • Support referrals, admissions, and transitions of care
  • Represent the program in community meetings and stakeholder groups

Why This Role Matters

  • You'll directly impact both client outcomes and staff retention
  • You'll shape team culture in a high-need, high-impact setting
  • You'll have the autonomy to improve systems-not just maintain them

What We're Looking For

  • Independent clinical license (LCSW, LPC, LMFT, etc.)
  • 3-5+ years of experience in community mental health or ACT (or similar programs)
  • Prior supervisory or leadership experience strongly preferred
  • Strong crisis management and decision-making skills
  • Ability to balance clinical, administrative, and operational demands

What We Offer

  • Competitive salary & Bonus
  • Clinical supervision and leadership development opportunities
  • Supportive executive leadership and manageable span of control
  • autonomy in program management
  • Generous PTO + holidays

The Kind of Leader Who Thrives Here

  • Calm under pressure and confident in crisis situations
  • Able to support staff without micromanaging
  • Organized but flexible in a constantly changing environment
  • Passionate about serving high-need populations
  • Committed to building and retaining strong teams
