Salary From $55,000-60,000

Responsibilities

• Supervise, coach, and develop a team of 3–4 Program Managers in leadership, staff supervision, problem-solving, and program operations.
• Oversee managers’ follow-through on staffing coverage, scheduling, staff development, and daily operational needs.
• Monitor program quality and compliance with Minnesota 245D requirements, identify concerns, and ensure corrective action is completed.
• Ensure required quarterly, annual, and other service documentation is accurate and completed on time.
• Train and guide managers on documentation standards, person-centered practices, and service delivery expectations.

On-call and leadership expectations

Program Managers serve as the primary on-call contact for direct support staff. The CRS Director serves as the next level of support for managers, providing guidance, helping resolve escalated concerns, and determining when additional resources or leadership involvement are needed. Routine staff calls, scheduling, and daily operations remain the Program Manager’s responsibility.

PKT provides care 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Situations may require Director involvement outside regular office hours or temporary hands-on assistance, including direct support, to maintain safety and continuity of care. These situations do not change the position’s primary focus: overseeing programs, developing managers, and ensuring appropriate follow-through. Directors are not routinely assigned to function as Program Managers.

• Strong organization, time management, and follow-through across multiple programs.
