Director of Clinician Success
North Carolina
KBH Leadership – Clinical Leadership /
Full-Time /
Remote
The Director of Clinician Success is a mission-driven, remote-based clinical leader responsible for elevating clinician capabilities and advancing excellence across the clinician career journey—from RBT to Clinical Director. This role plays a critical part in enabling Kind Behavioral Health’s (KBH) commitment to consistent, high-quality, and person-centered care by building the conditions, competencies, and systems needed for clinicians to thrive.
Reporting to the Chief Clinical Officer, the Director leads the development, alignment, and implementation of clinician-facing systems and content that support onboarding, growth, and professional development. This includes leading KBH’s BACB ACE Provider designation, overseeing our clinician education strategy, and ensuring clinical expectations are clear, aligned, and scalable across the organization. The Director translates regulatory standards and organizational values into cohesive development systems that are embedded in daily practice, equipping clinicians to meet external requirements (e.g., BACB, CASP, CPT codes), reflect key industry movements (e.g., compassionate care, neurodivergence), and deliver on KBH’s internal performance expectations.
The Director also oversees the evolution of KBH’s Fieldwork Program, ensuring RBTs on the BCBA path receive high-quality training and supervision that fosters day-one readiness. In parallel, they ensure onboarding experiences for RBTs, BCBAs, ACDs, and CDs build clinical confidence, clarity, and implementation quality from the outset. Throughout a clinician’s tenure, the Director partners across departments—including Clinical Standards, Learning & Development, Talent, and Regional Leadership—to ensure clinician tools, systems, and messages are connected and cohesive.
This is a remote-based leadership role with regular travel required to support onsite clinic visits and company events
