Executive Director – Premier Senior Living (Lease-Up)


If you are an energetic senior living leader tired of red tape and cookie-cutter corporate management, this is your chance to shine.


We are partnering with a highly respected senior living provider in Northern New Jersey seeking an Executive Director to steer their gorgeous, brand-new community through its lease-up. This operator truly knows the regional market and pairs hands-on, accessible regional leadership with an agile culture that actually embraces new ideas instead of hiding behind bureaucracy.


You are stepping into a beautiful, newly opened Assisted Living and Memory Care community that is already growing occupancy. Best of all, you will have a fully staffed, dedicated department head team ready for an inspiring leader to take them across the finish line.


The Role: Lead with Impact

  • Drive Lease-Up Momentum: Partner closely with sales leadership and community teams to hit occupancy and NOI targets while keeping operations orderly and stable.
  • Lead from the Front: Actively engage with department heads, mentor staff, and serve as a visible advocate for residents and families.
  • Champion Comprehensive Care: Support specialized memory care programming and forward-thinking resident partnerships designed to reduce hospitalizations and allow seniors to age in place.


What It Takes to Lead Here

  • The Background: Proven executive leadership in senior living, with strong experience in Assisted Living and Memory Care environments. (Active CALA certification preferred).
  • The Mindset: A hands-on, sales-minded leader who thrives in a growth environment, leads by example, and loves collaborating with families.
  • Operational Acumen: Ability to guide department leaders, manage community budgets, and hit NOI goals.


Top-Tier Rewards

  • Competitive Base Salary
  • High-Impact Incentive Plan
  • Total Support
