• Hands on experience with intake, staffing, scheduling, and recruiting

• Experienced with in home and school based services

• Passionate about the families you serve and the clinicians you lead

• Ambitious, entrepreneurial, and excited to build rather than maintain

• Someone who leads with heart and holds a high bar for clinical care

What we offer

• Salary of $95,000 to $110,000 per year

• Profit sharing based on performance, so as Michigan grows, you grow with it

• Flexible start: begin part time hourly and transition to full time salary, or start full time salary right away
