Director of Rehabilitation & Occupational Therapy Services
Hospital-Based Leadership Strategic Influence Program Ownership
What if you could lead rehabilitation services with real authority - not just manage schedules?
We're partnering with a hospital in Central California, minutes from Monterey and wine country, seeking a Director-level therapy leader ready to shape clinical strategy, operational performance, and long-term program growth.
This is not a maintenance role.
This is a build, optimize, and elevate role.
Why Experienced Rehab Leaders Make This Move

• Strategic seat at the table - partner directly with senior leadership
• Authority over program direction, staffing models, and quality initiatives
• Influence across disciplines and service lines
• Ownership of metrics that matter - clinical outcomes, operational performance, and patient satisfaction
• Lifestyle balance in one of California's most desirable regions

If you've been operating within a corporate structure where decisions are handed down instead of shaped collaboratively, this environment offers something different: leadership autonomy with accountability.
The Opportunity
As Director of Rehabilitation & Occupational Therapy, you will:

• Lead strategic planning and execution of rehabilitation and OT services
• Oversee departmental operations: staffing, scheduling, workflow optimization
• Drive performance measurement and continuous quality improvement
• Ensure regulatory compliance and evidence-based clinical standards
• Partner with executive leadership on budget planning and resource allocation
• Develop and mentor high-performing therapy teams
• Promote interdisciplinary integration to enhance patient outcomes

This role blends clinical credibility with administrative authority.

• Significant clinical foundation with progressive leadership experience
• Demonstrated success leading teams and improving performance metrics
• Strong operational, financial, and strategic planning skills
• Experience implementing quality improvement initiatives
• Executive-level communication capability
