This position is based at our clinic in Woburn, in the Greater Boston area. Relocation assistance is provided

Clinical Director (Center-Based) | $115K-$125K Base
Full-Time | No Weekends | No Travel

Are you ready to lead a team where every day means real progress for a child? Where a BCBA helps a toddler communicate for the first time, or a Behavior Therapist turns a tough Tuesday into a breakthrough? That's what leading a center at ANNA feels like.

ANNA (Allied Network for Neurodevelopmental Advancement) is where compassion meets evidence, and every child's strength shines. We provide neurodiversity-affirming, play-based therapy to autistic children under 6 across Massachusetts, using NDBI (Naturalistic Developmental Behavioral Intervention) — following each child's lead, building on their strengths, in the context of real play and real life. It's joyful, purposeful work, and as Clinical Director, you're the one who makes sure your whole team can do it well, every day.

Our values: Excellent Care (#wholehearted). Kindness (#platinum). Inclusion (#IDIC). Teamwork (#together). Growth (#rainforest).

POSITION OVERVIEW

Reports To: Market Executive Director

This is a 100% on-site, center-based role.

The Clinical Director is the on-the-ground leader of one of ANNA's centers — effectively the CEO of the clinic. You'll own the clinical excellence, day-to-day operations, and team culture of your center, leading a group of BCBAs and Behavior Therapists (BTs) who deliver NDBI-based care to children ages 18 months to 6 years.

This is a role that blends deep clinical leadership with substantial operational ownership — the job is at least as much about running the clinic as it is about clinical supervision. You'll be the direct people manager for your BCBAs (and a level-two manager for BTs), owning their supervision, development, and performance, while also managing your center's budget, staffing, scheduling, and utilization.

Enjoy a stable Monday–Friday schedule — no nights, weekends, or travel required.
