Who We Are

Inspired by Jewish tradition to make the world a better place, JFS empowers and supports people in need to meet their challenges. For generations, our clinical, community, and family programs have been a steady, caring presence in St. Louis — and our staff are the reason for that. We're a team that leads with Kindness, treats every person with Dignity, and holds ourselves to a high standard of Integrity, in how we care for clients and how we treat each other.

We're proud to be a warm, inclusive workplace where people of every background, tradition, and life experience are welcomed and valued — because the work of repairing the world takes all of us.

The Opportunity

We're looking for a Clinical Services Director (CSD) to help lead the next chapter of JFS's clinical programs. This is a hands‑on leadership role: you'll set strategy and direction for our clinical team for in‑office counselors, school‑based therapists, and the Assessment and Psychiatric Services Manager, make sure our clients get consistent, high‑quality, equitable care, and be the kind of leader your team can bring their toughest questions to.

You'll partner closely with our Chief Program Officer and collaborate with clinical, program, and administrative colleagues across the agency.

If you're a licensed clinical leader who wants your work to matter — and wants to build a program grounded in real evidence, real compassion, and real accountability — we'd love to talk with you.

What You'll Do

Lead Clinical Strategy & Innovation

• Set the direction. Guide the planning, development, and day‑to‑day leadership of all JFS clinical programs, with goals and policies that connect back to our mission.
• Bring fresh thinking. Champion creative, evidence‑based solutions that genuinely move the needle on client outcomes and program effectiveness.
• Stay tuned to the community. Track emerging community needs and match them with the interventions most likely to help, using data and good judgment to prioritize where clinical resources go.

Champion Client Care & Equity

• Put clients first. Keep client wellbeing at the center of every decision, maintaining care standards that produce positive, equitable outcomes for everyone we serve.
• Keep us compliant and ethical. Ensure clinical practice meets every applicable federal and state regulation, accreditation standard, and documentation/confidentiality requirement.
• Drive quality, together. Serve on the Performance and Quality Improvement (PQI) team, using data to sharpen how we deliver care.
• Lead with equity. Ensure equitable access and outcomes for all clients, and guide the clinical department’s diversity, equity, and inclusion work.

Grow Our Team

• Build a great team. Hire, train, supervise, evaluate, and promote clinical staff, and cultivate a supportive, high‑performing culture grounded in JFS’s values.
• Invest in people. Organize ongoing training that keeps the team current on best‑practice standards and evidence‑based methods.
• Meet people where they are. Flex your communication and supervisory style to support…
