Lead an Exceptional Community. Build on a Culture of Excellence.

An exceptional community begins with its people. At Saratoga Retirement Community, a premier CCRC, the Executive Director leads a talented director team and dedicated, long-tenured team members who have created a culture defined by meaningful relationships, pride in service, and a shared commitment to residents. Very low turnover reflects the strength of that culture—and the connections that make this community special.

We are seeking an Executive Director who will appreciate these strengths, earn the confidence of residents and team members, and build on a Culture of Excellence.

Our Executive Director provides strategic, operational, and financial leadership for the entire campus, including Independent Living, Assisted Living, Memory Care, and Skilled Nursing. Working with department directors, the board, and regional and corporate partners, you will set clear priorities, develop leaders, and deliver results while preserving the relationships and traditions that make SRC special and advancing the mission, vision, values, and Culture of Excellence of Transforming Age.

Our Executive Director:

  • Leads our people and culture: Build on a culture of excellence grounded in respect, integrity, and accountability; stay visible, recognize long-tenured team members, and develop a talented director team.
  • Builds resident and family relationships: Earn trust through accessibility, attentive listening, and follow-through; partner with resident leadership groups and promote dignity, choice, and independence across the continuum of care.
  • Provides strategic and operational leadership: Set goals aligned with mission and strategic priorities, translate them into measurable plans, and ensure consistent quality across all levels of care.
  • Leads regulatory compliance and readiness: Apply deep knowledge of California CCRC statutes and Title 22 licensing requirements, maintain strong regulator relationships, and sustain survey, emergency, and life safety readiness.
  • Stewards financial performance: Lead operating and capital budgeting and apply a solid grasp of the CCRC financial model, including entrance fees, service fees, care revenue, and occupancy.
  • Partners with the board and guides future success: Serve as a trusted executive partner to the board, support occupancy with sales and marketing, and lead renovations, capital projects, and expansion.

What you need to succeed:

  • Bachelor’s degree in business administration, healthcare administration, hospitality management, gerontology, or a related field, or equivalent education and experience.
  • At least eight years of progressive leadership in senior living or aging services, including five as an Executive Director or comparable senior leader, ideally in a CCRC or Life Plan Community with Skilled Nursing.
  • Knowledge of California CCRC, RCFE, Memory Care, and Skilled Nursing requirements and the oversight roles of the California Department of Social Services (CDSS), Community Care Licensing (CCL), the California Department of Public Health (CDPH), and the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), with experience leading survey readiness, complaint response, and corrective action.
  • Proven success leading multidisciplinary director teams and complex campus operations, and managing substantial operating budgets and capital planning.
  • Current California RCFE Administrator certification in good standing, plus any administrator certification or licensure required for the role.
  • Strong leadership skills: builds trust, coaches and holds leaders accountable, communicates clearly, makes sound decisions, and leads change collaboratively and transparently; Microsoft Office proficiency (Workday highly preferred).

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Master’s degree in a relevant field and prior Executive Director experience at a CCRC, preferably in California.
  • Experience leading a high-end community with strong hospitality expectations, or with campus expansion or major renovation.
  • California Nursing Home Administrator license.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
