Job Summary

We’re looking for someone to lead a brand-new initiative, building and shaping Intercare’s school district footprint in the Boston area. This role requires in-person relationship building, and the delivery of services within the Boston Public Schools, with potential to expand into neighboring districts over time.  As the first person in this role, you won’t just step into a program. You’ll help create it. This is an opportunity for a hands-on leader who’s excited to roll up their sleeves, pilot new approaches, and build processes from the ground up.

As the Clinical Supervisor, you’ll provide behavioral assessment, consultation, and program oversight to support students with behavioral and developmental needs in public school settings. You’ll partner closely with school administrators, teachers, related service providers, and families to design and implement evidence-based interventions that expand student access to learning and strengthen the overall educational environment. 

This position requires a high degree of flexibility and responsiveness to district needs. Depending on program requirements, the Clinical Supervisor may provide direct support within classrooms, assist with implementation of behavior plans, and occasionally provide short-term coverage for Behavior Intervention Implementation (BII) services when necessary to ensure continuity of student support. 

The Clinical Supervisor may also play a key role in developing and expanding behavioral support services within assigned districts, including helping to build and mentor teams of Behavior Interventionists or other staff supporting student programs.

  • Collect, analyze, and interpret behavioral data to evaluate intervention effectiveness and guide treatment modifications.
  • Ensure behavior programming reflects evidence-based ABA practices and demonstrates social validity.
  • When necessary to maintain continuity of services, provide temporary direct student support or assist with BII-level implementation while staffing solutions are arranged.
