About House of Hearts ABA

At House of Hearts ABA, we're driven by something deeper than just running a company. We're here to deliver truly exceptional care to families - and to build an organization that actually works, for our clients, our team, and for the long term.

This isn't just another company, and we're not interested in being one.

We're building a movement - a new standard for what ABA can and should look like. One rooted in quality, integrity, and people who genuinely care.

We're not looking for someone to simply "fill a role".

We're looking for someone who wants to be part of something bigger - to help shape it, grow it, and leave a real impact along the way.

The Role

This is a Clinical Director position for someone who doesn't just want to manage cases - but wants to lead people, build systems, and help shape how a company operates.

We are looking for someone with prior hands-on experience as a Clinical Director who has already overseen teams of BCBAs and played a key role in refining clinical and operational workflows. This is an important requirement for the role.

You'll be responsible for leading a team of BCBAs while also owning core operational areas like intake, staffing, scheduling, and recruiting. This role sits at the intersection of clinical quality and business performance.

We're looking for a seasoned leader who is confident in building strong teams, improving systems, and operating at a high level from day one.

What You’ll Be Responsible For

• Leading the Clinical Team

• Mentor, support, and develop a team of BCBAs
• Maintain strong clinical standards across all cases
• Be a resource for clinical decision-making and case support
• Ensure compliance while keeping quality at the center

Owning the Operation

• Oversee intake and ensure smooth onboarding for new clients
• Manage staffing and scheduling to maximize consistency and utilization
• Support and collaborate on recruiting efforts (BCBAs & RBTs)
• Identify gaps and fix what's not working - not just maintain it

Driving Growth

• Work closely with leadership on expansion into new areas
• Help build systems that scale, not ones that break under pressure
• Track and improve key metrics like utilization, retention, and team performance

Who This Is For

You're a BCBA in good standing

• You've had leadership experience and actually enjoy leading people
• You understand the operational side of ABA - not just clinical work
• You're a self-starter who doesn't wait to be told what to do
• You take ownership and follow through
• You're energized by growth, not overwhelmed by it
• You want to build something - not just maintain what already exists

What You’ll Get

$90,000 - $135,000 salary (based on experience)

• Fully remote role with flexibility
• Opportunity to travel and connect with teams in service areas
• A real path into higher-level leadership
• The ability to make a meaningful impact on both people and the business

Final Note

This role isn't for someone looking to coast.

It's for someone who wants to step up, take ownership, and grow into a key leader inside the company.

If that sounds like you, we'd love to talk.
