Director of Educational and Clinical Services

Groves Learning Organization | St. Louis Park, Minnesota

At Groves Learning Organization, we believe every student deserves the opportunity to learn, grow, and discover what's possible.

Our Learning Center has a strong foundation: experienced professionals, respected programs, and a deep commitment to helping students with learning disabilities and attention differences thrive.

Now, we're looking for a leader who can help us build what's next.

We are at an important moment of change and opportunity. We're taking a thoughtful look at how our programs operate, how we serve families, and how we can extend our impact into the future.

We need someone who sees both the mission and the mechanics. Someone who cares deeply about education but also understands that great outcomes require strong systems, thoughtful financial stewardship, engaged teams, and operational excellence.

Someone who has built something before—and wants to do it again.

Not by starting over, but by building on what's already good.

As Director of Educational and Clinical Services, you'll lead a multidisciplinary team delivering diagnostic assessments, tutoring, ADHD and executive functioning coaching, speech-language services, summer programming, and related student and family supports.

You'll inherit a team with deep expertise and a mission worth believing in. You'll also step into an organization navigating change, strengthening its operations, and exploring new opportunities for growth.

Your work will be both strategic and practical.

You'll listen and learn. You'll build trust. You'll assess what's working, identify what's getting in the way, and bring people together around a clear direction.

You'll help us answer meaningful questions:

• How do we build on our strongest programs while improving the experience for students, families, and staff?

• How can we create more effective systems and sustainable operating models?

• What new services, partnerships, or approaches could expand our reach and impact?

• How do we position the Learning Center for long-term financial health and responsible growth?

• How can we work more closely across Groves to create a connected experience for the families we serve?

We don't expect you to arrive with every answer.

We do expect you to know how to find answers, make thoughtful decisions, and turn good ideas into meaningful progress.

Build on excellence. Shape what's next.

Protect and strengthen the quality of our existing programs while exploring new opportunities to meet evolving student and family needs. Use data, experience, and collaboration to guide decisions about program development, service models, partnerships, and responsible growth.

Bring operational strength to an important mission.

Lead the financial and operational performance of the educational and clinical services offered engthen systems for scheduling, staffing, service capacity, enrollment, family communications, and program delivery.

Lead people through change—with clarity and care.
