Programs Director

Programs Director

Are you a visionary builder ready to create transformative educational programs from the ground up? Our client is seeking a Programs Director to conceptualize, design, and launch a wide range of enrichment and educational programs that don't yet exist but are central to our mission. This is a unique opportunity to shape a school from its foundation by serving young children, children with behavioral challenges, and teens who struggle in traditional school environments.

If you're driven by innovation, inclusion, and impact, and you're excited to build something meaningful from scratch, we want to hear from you.

Our client is committed to unlocking every child's potential through a nurturing and inclusive approach. They support neurotypical children, as well as those on the autism spectrum or facing behavioral challenges, by combining Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) with child-led learning to create individualized and meaningful educational experiences.

They are now taking an exciting next step : developing a new school model designed to meet the needs of a wide range of learners. Currently in the early stages, their vision is to grow into a full-service educational center offering comprehensive, developmentally appropriate programs across multiple age groups.

As none of their programs are currently established, they're seeking a visionary leader to bring this mission to life, someone who can design and build impactful programs from the ground up.

What You'll Do

From Vision to Reality

• Design, implement, and oversee a range of new, mission-aligned programs, including :

• A small preschool classroom for children ages 2 years to 4 years of age, who are not a good fit for mainstream programs.
