Weekly outpatient therapy isn't always enough, and a trip to the ER isn't the only answer. Patients and their families rely on Compass Health Center when in crisis – every day, we help people overcome depression, anxiety, suicidality, obsessions/compulsions, trauma, chronic pain, and other obstacles in order for our patients to live freely.
About This Role
As the Manager of Education, you'll provide leadership and oversight for our Education Specialists across multiple Compass sites while helping ensure a consistent, high-quality educational experience for our adolescent patients. You'll partner closely with the Center of Excellence (COE) for Education, clinical leadership, and interdisciplinary treatment teams to support educational programming, staff development, and operational excellence.
This role combines people leadership, clinical collaboration, and program implementation. You'll directly manage Education Specialists, support standardized educational initiatives, oversee complex education cases, and help ensure patients receive compassionate, coordinated educational support throughout their treatment.
Please Note: This is a temporary, fixed-term position from August 2026 through May 2027. This role is expected to begin approximately one week prior to the start of the school year, and will conclude on the last day of the school year. Periodic travel to Illinois may be required.
