Description

Soar Autism Center is building a network of interdisciplinary clinics where children with autism and their families receive life-shaping services that support them to thrive. We prioritize early intervention, comprehensive supportive services, and positive, developmentally-appropriate learning that meets the needs of each unique child and family. Specifically, we focus on integrated autism care and a play-based model of applied behavior analysis (ABA) based on the principles of the Early Start Denver Model.

The Center Operations Director (COD) role is a high-impact leadership position for someone early-to-mid career who is smart, ambitious, and ready to own real responsibility. This is not a back-office role. You’ll run a center, lead a team, partner closely with clinicians, and directly influence growth, quality, and family experience.

Soar is growing rapidly, and many of our CODs grow into multi-site leadership, regional operations, or senior operational roles as Soar continues to expand. If you’re looking for a role where you can learn quickly, be trusted early, and build a meaningful leadership career, this is it.

Serving as the primary people leader for local staff, including clinicians and support team members

Coaching, developing, and motivating team members

Partnering closely with the lead clinician to support clinical excellence, team morale, and retention

Acting as a trusted point of escalation and support for staff, knowing when to solve and when to escalate

Who this role is great for

You enjoy running things, solving problems, and working with people

You’re detail-oriented and big-picture oriented

You want a role where performance matters and growth is earned
