Clinical Director / Board Certified Behavior Analyst

Fort Worth, TX | Hybrid Leadership Opportunity

We Don't Just Need Another BCBA. We Need a Leader.

A growing, privately owned ABA organization in the Fort Worth area is seeking an experienced BCBA for a Clinical Director / BCBA leadership position.

• This role is part clinical leader, part coach, part project manager, and part problem solver.
• We're looking for someone who can keep a clinical team moving, maintain exceptionally high standards of care, hold people accountable, and personally step in when the team needs help.
• If you prefer waiting for someone to tell you what needs to be done, this probably isn't the position for you.
• If you naturally take ownership, solve problems, communicate directly, and make the people around you better, we'd like to talk.

Lead & Manage the BCBA Team

You'll help oversee the day-to-day clinical workload of the organization's BCBAs and ensure important clinical deliverables don't fall through the cracks.

Responsibilities Include

• Reviewing BCBA client workloads
• Establishing and monitoring clinical deadlines
• Ensuring treatment plans and updates are completed accurately and on time
• Monitoring development of clinical materials and programming
• Helping BCBAs prioritize responsibilities
• Maintaining accountability across in-person and remote work
• Supporting clinicians when challenges arise
• Creating a culture of communication, ownership, and follow-through

Handle Clinical Overflow

• Growth doesn't always happen according to a convenient schedule.
• The Clinical Director will help bridge those gaps by:
• Assisting with new clients while additional BCBAs are being hired
• Temporarily absorbing cases when necessary
• Providing clinical coverage during staffing transitions
• Helping build new caseloads
• Ensuring families continue receiving high-quality care during periods of growth or change

Own Quality Control

• This organization takes the quality of its clinical services seriously.
• The Clinical Director will remain connected to what is actually happening with clients rather than managing exclusively from behind a desk.
• The goal will be to visit at least one client per BCBA each week when practical to:
• Maintain familiarity with clients and families
• Evaluate treatment quality
• Observe clinical implementation
• Identify potential problems early
• Ensure parents receive excellent communication and support
• Maintain consistently high clinical standards

The Person We're Looking For

Credentials matter, but they aren't enough for this position.

We're Looking for Someone with Exceptional

• Leadership
• Communication
• Accountability
• Clinical judgment
• Organization
• Initiative
• Reliability
• Emotional intelligence
• Ability to build trust with employees and families
• You should be comfortable having difficult conversations when necessary while still being someone your team respects and wants to work with.
• Most importantly, we're looking for someone who takes ownership rather than saying, "That's not my job."

Qualifications

• Current BCBA certification
• Texas LBA or eligibility for Texas licensure
• Strong ABA clinical background
• Leadership, supervisory, or clinical management experience strongly preferred
• Excellent organizational and project-management skills
• Ability to manage competing clinical priorities
• Strong interpersonal and family-communication skills
• Ability to work independently and collaborate directly with executive leadership

The Opportunity

This is an opportunity for the right BCBA to have a meaningful voice in how a growing clinical operation develops rather than simply becoming another employee inside a large corporate structure.

• The organization is willing to wait for the right person.
• If you're a strong clinician who also has the personality, leadership presence, accountability, and drive to build a great clinical team, we'd like to hear from you.
• All inquiries will be handled confidentially.
