Director of Operations-Independent Supported Living (ISL) Services
📍 St. Louis, MO
💰 $70,000 – $100,000 (flexible based on experience)
Why This Role Stands Out
This is a unique opportunity to step into a high-impact leadership role with a growing, mission-driven organization providing 24/7 supportive living services to adults with developmental disabilities.
You’ll work directly with executive leadership as a true right-hand operator, helping bring structure, accountability, and operational excellence across multiple residential homes.
If you’re a hands-on leader who thrives in fast-paced environments and knows how to lead teams while staying compliant and organized- this role offers the chance to make a real difference.
What You’ll Do
- Lead day-to-day operations across multiple supportive living homes
- Oversee and support house managers, supervisors, and direct care teams
- Ensure compliance with all DMH/state regulations, audits, and documentation standards
- Maintain oversight of:
- ISP/BSP implementation
- MARs and medical documentation
- Staff scheduling and coverage across 24/7 shifts
- Drive accountability, performance, and team development
- Identify operational gaps and implement process improvements
- Partner closely with executive leadership on staffing, budgeting, and overall operations
What We’re Looking For
Prior Director-level experience in ISL / IDD / supportive living
Strong knowledge of DMH regulations, audits, and compliance
Hands-on leadership style- comfortable being in homes and working alongside teams
Experience managing multiple locations or residential programs
Familiarity with:
- ISP / BSP
- MARs
- Medical and compliance documentation
- Ability to lead in a fast-paced, 24/7 care environment
What Will Set You Apart
- Proven ability to step into unstructured environments and build systems
- Strong track record of team leadership, accountability, and retention
- Experience managing state-funded programs and budgets
Compensation & Benefits
- Competitive base salary: $70K – $100K (flexible)
- Full benefits package including:
- Health, Dental, Vision
- 401(k)
- Paid Time Off
- Life Insurance
What to Expect
This is not a desk-only role. You’ll be actively involved in daily operations, supporting staff, and ensuring quality care across the organization.
If you're looking for a leadership role where you can take ownership, build structure, and make a meaningful impact, we’d love to connect.
Apply today to learn more about this opportunity with a growing organization making a difference in the Greater St. Louis community.
