About the job

Founding Clinic Director, BCBA

New ABA Center Opening in McDonough, Georgia

Salary: $100,000–$120,000 per year, plus sign-on bonus

Schedule: Full-time, Monday through Friday

Location: McDonough, Georgia, on-site

Big Dreamers ABA is preparing to open a new center in the McDonough area, and we’re looking for an experienced BCBA to lead it from the beginning.

This is not just another BCBA position. You’ll help establish the clinical standard, build and develop the team, shape clinic operations, and play a major role in what the center becomes.

What You’ll Do

  • Lead the day-to-day clinical operations of the McDonough center
  • Supervise, mentor, and support a team of BCBAs, RBTs, and clinical staff
  • Work closely with our QA and leadership teams to maintain strong clinical standards
  • Oversee treatment plans, behavior intervention plans, progress monitoring, and clinical programming
  • Lead case reviews and provide regular performance feedback to clinicians
  • Help recruit, onboard, and develop the clinic team
  • Partner with intake and operations to support steady, responsible clinic growth
  • Build relationships with referral sources, schools, providers, and community organizations
  • Ensure compliance with BACB standards, Georgia regulations, payer requirements, and company policies
  • Carry a limited billable caseload that decreases as the clinic grows and leadership responsibilities increase
  • Help create a positive, organized, and supportive clinic culture

What We’re Looking For

  • Active BCBA certification in good standing
  • Active Georgia LBA, or eligibility to obtain one before starting
  • At least three years of pediatric ABA experience, preferably in a clinic-based setting
  • At least two years of supervisory, management, or clinical leadership experience
  • Previous experience helping manage or operate an ABA clinic
  • Strong knowledge of FBAs, treatment planning, BIP development, supervision, and clinical documentation
  • Ability to lead people while maintaining high clinical and ethical standards
  • Strong organizational, communication, and problem-solving skills
  • Familiarity with CentralReach preferred
  • Working knowledge of Georgia Medicaid and commercial insurance preferred
  • Ability to balance clinical quality, staff development, family experience, and operational goals

Compensation and Benefits

  • $100,000–$120,000 salary
  • Sign-on bonus
  • Performance-based bonus opportunities
  • Relocation assistance available
  • Health, dental, and vision insurance
  • Generous PTO and paid holidays
  • Annual CEU stipend
  • Employee referral bonuses
  • Quarterly designated remote-work days
  • Strong opportunities for professional and leadership growth

Why Big Dreamers ABA?

Big Dreamers ABA provides individualized, evidence-based ABA therapy while giving clinicians the support and resources they need to do their best work.

You’ll have meaningful input into staffing, clinic systems, clinical policies, community outreach, and growth strategy. You’ll also have the support of an established operations, intake, authorization, recruiting, and quality assurance team.

We believe clinic leaders should know exactly what is expected of them. As the center grows, your billable expectations will decrease according to clearly established growth benchmarks so you can focus more of your time on leadership, team development, and clinical quality.

If you have experience running an ABA clinic and want the opportunity to build a strong center from the ground up, we would love to speak with you.
