Are you ready to lead—not someday, but soon?

Integrated Real Estate Group’s Executive Director in Training (EDIT) Program is a paid, structured leadership development program designed for high-potential professionals who are ready to advance into executive-level senior living operations.

This is not an entry-level role. It is an immersive, approximately 12-month leadership pathway for professionals with demonstrated leadership experience who want to develop the operational, financial, people-management, and strategic capabilities required to lead a senior living community.

Through hands-on experience, structured learning, executive mentorship, and progressive responsibility, you’ll prepare to oversee a community’s operations, lead multidisciplinary teams, drive financial performance, and deliver an exceptional experience for residents and families.

As an EDIT participant, you will be assigned to a designated senior living host community and work closely with an experienced Executive Director, regional operations leaders, and community department heads.

Throughout the program, you’ll gain direct exposure to every major area of community leadership, including:

• Community operations and executive decision-making
• Financial management, budgeting, and performance reporting
• Sales, marketing, occupancy, and revenue strategy
• Human resources, payroll, hiring, coaching, and retention
• Resident services and family relationship management
• Regulatory compliance, quality standards, and risk management
• Business office operations and accounts receivable
• Team culture, accountability, and leadership development

This is a hands-on, immersive experience. You will actively participate in operating the community, solving business challenges, supporting department leaders, and gradually assuming greater ownership as your knowledge and leadership readiness develop.

Progress is measured through hands-on performance, structured learning modules, milestone assessments, leadership feedback, and demonstrated readiness—not simply time spent in the program.

Upon successful completion, graduates may be considered for placement into an Executive Director, Business Office Manager, or other approved community leadership position
, based on demonstrated readiness, business needs, position availability, and geographic flexibility.

• Participate in daily leadership meetings, operational reviews, and community stand‑ups
• Support the Executive Director in overseeing daily community operations and resolving operational challenges
• Assist with budgeting, financial reporting, accounts receivable, collections, expense management, and performance…
