Full-Time | Monday-Friday + Manager-on-Duty Rotation

Lead With Purpose. Create Meaningful Moments. Help Memory Care Flourish.

Charter Senior Living of Fox Hollow is seeking an experienced and compassionate Memory Care Director to lead our thriving Memory Care neighborhood.

This is an exciting opportunity to step into an established, high-occupancy Memory Care program with a strong reputation in the community and continue taking it to the next level.

Our residents are a high-functioning and engaged group, and our associates are eager to learn and grow. We're looking for a leader who can bring dementia-care expertise, creative programming, positive team leadership, and consistency to an already successful program.

This isn't simply a programming position. Our Memory Care Director is a visible leader who understands how resident engagement, dementia-informed care, family relationships, team development, and operational excellence work together to create an exceptional Memory Care experience.

What We're Looking For

Dementia Care Experience • Meaningful Programming • Strong Team Leadership

Dementia Care Experience

You understand the unique needs of individuals living with Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia and know how to meet residents where they are.

You believe in preserving dignity, independence, choice, purpose, and meaningful connection throughout every stage of the dementia journey.

Meaningful Programming

We're looking for more than someone who can create an activity calendar.

You'll develop purposeful experiences based on residents' abilities, interests, histories, preferences, and strengths, creating opportunities for connection, creativity, movement, engagement, and contribution.

Strong Team Leadership

Our associates care deeply about our residents and are willing to learn. They need a leader who can provide coaching, guidance, consistency, clear expectations, and positive accountability.

You’ll help develop a team that understands Memory Care isn't something that happens only during scheduled programming - meaningful engagement should happen throughout the resident's entire day.

What You’ll Own

As Memory Care Director, you’ll provide leadership and oversight for the Memory Care neighborhood while championing Charter Senior Living's Flourish Memory Care philosophy.

You:

• Lead the day-to-day operations and resident experience within the Memory Care neighborhood

• Champion and consistently implement Charter's Flourish Memory Care philosophy

• Develop and oversee purposeful, dementia-informed resident programming

• Create meaningful engagement opportunities based on individual resident abilities, interests, histories, and preferences

• Lead therapeutic, recreational, educational, social, and life-enrichment programming

• Maintain a vibrant and engaging programming calendar

• Coach, mentor, support, and develop Memory Care associates

• Establish clear expectations while creating a positive and accountable team culture

• Partner with the Health & Wellness Director and clinical team to support resident needs

• Support associates in responding appropriately to dementia-related behavioral and emotional needs

• Build trusted relationships with residents and families

• Provide family communication, education, and support

• Ensure compliance with Memory Care standards, policies, procedures, and applicable regulations

• Monitor resident engagement and continuously identify opportunities to strengthen the program

• Support resident satisfaction and occupancy goals

• Collaborate with the Executive Director and community leadership team

• Participate in the community's Manager-on-Duty rotation

Champion Our Flourish Memory Care Philosophy

The Memory Care Director plays an important role in bringing our Flourish Memory Care philosophy to life through purposeful experiences and meaningful connections.

You’ll support programming and resident engagement through our Flourish distinctions:

• Flourish Restore

• Flourish Enrich

• Flourish Connect

• Flourish Create

• Flourish Engage

• Flourish Contribute

The goal isn't simply to keep residents busy. It's to create opportunities for residents to experience purpose, accomplishment, connection, familiarity, joy, and belonging.

What You Bring

Required Experience

• Minimum 3 years of experience working with seniors

• Minimum 1 year of direct experience working with individuals living with dementia

• Previous experience developing or implementing resident programming

• Demonstrated ability to effectively manage, coach, and develop employees

• Strong understanding of person-centered dementia care

• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills

• Strong planning, organization, and follow-through

• Ability to respond professionally and compassionately to dementia-related behaviors and family concerns

Education

• Associate degree or equivalent experience required

• Bachelor's degree preferred in Recreation Therapy, Social Work, Human Development, Psychology, Gerontology, or a related field

Preferred Experience & Certifications

• Previous Memory Care Director, Memory Care Coordinator, Life Enrichment Director, Programming Director, or comparable leadership experience

• Assisted Living or Memory Care leadership experience

• Certified Dementia Practitioner (CDP)

• Activities Director Certification

• Certified Therapeutic Recreation Specialist (CTRS)

• Other dementia-care or therapeutic-recreation certifications

The Leader We're Looking For

You’ll likely thrive at Fox Hollow if you:

• See the person first and the diagnosis second

• Understand that meaningful Memory Care programming goes far beyond bingo and crafts

• Are comfortable being visible and actively engaged with residents and associates

• Can coach employees positively while still holding them accountable

• Know how to develop a team rather than simply direct one

• Bring creativity and energy while also providing structure and consistency

• Understand how to adapt programming to different cognitive and functional abilities

• Communicate confidently and compassionately with families

• Can recognize what is already working and build upon it

• Believe every resident deserves opportunities for choice, dignity, purpose, connection, and joy
