Why This Role Exists
The Assistant Clinical Director role exists as the bridge between senior clinical leadership (BCBA Lead) and executive clinical (Clinical Director). This isn't a placeholder or a title inflation — it's a real operational role with its own scope. The ACD partners with the Clinical Director on cross-site clinical operations, holds quality standards across multiple locations, and is the named successor pathway for future Clinical Director seats. KEBM deliberately built this tier so that clinical leadership succession is planned, not improvised.
About Us
We're a five-clinic ABA therapy company with four locations across Southern California and one in Georgia, founded in 2016 by a BCBA with 25+ years in the field. Our team of 68+ professionals delivers evidence-based therapy through our proprietary S.O.C.I.A.L. P.O.D.S. methodology — and our Sensory Spot locations prove that therapy can actually feel like play.
We serve every client who walks through our doors — insurance-funded, private pay, open play, and camp families alike. We're women-founded, minority-owned, and we don't sacrifice clinical quality for profit. If you want to work somewhere that's serious about outcomes and serious about its people, you're in the right place.
How S.O.C.I.A.L. P.O.D.S. Work
S.O.C.I.A.L. P.O.D.S. is our proprietary pod-based group ABA model. Clients are grouped 3–6 per pod at a 1:3 facilitator ratio, with a supervisor always on-site and clinical support always available in every pod. We use a push-in / pull-out model for group and 1:1 work, and BCBAs provide real-time clinical oversight across pods. As a clinical leader, you'll shape how this methodology evolves, how your team is trained to deliver it, and how we measure whether it's actually producing outcomes for clients.
Who We Serve
KEBM serves every client who walks through our doors — no tiers, no priority treatment, no "real clients vs. drop-ins." That means:
Insurance-funded ABA clients (Medi-Cal, Medicare, commercial insurance)
Private pay therapy clients
Open play participants at our Sensory Spot locations
Camp participants — spring break, winter break, summer, and any seasonal KEBM camp
Consultation clients in adult residential and group home settings (Program Supervisor Master's level and above)
A camp kid gets the same quality of care as an insurance client. An open play family gets the same respect as a full-time ABA family. If that feels natural to you, you're going to fit here. If the idea of treating any of those clients as less-than bothers you, this isn't the place.
The Role — What You'll Actually Do
In this role, you'll:
Partner with the Clinical Director on cross-site clinical operations — program fidelity, quality standards, clinical staffing decisions, and methodology consistency across all KEBM locations.
Oversee BCBA Leads across assigned regions — performance evaluation, development planning, clinical quality assurance at the multi-site level.
Drive clinical program development initiatives — new service line design, S.O.C.I.A.L. P.O.D.S. methodology evolution, clinical protocol standardization across sites.
Own clinical strategic initiatives — as assigned by the CD or CCD. Expansion readiness, new site clinical setup, program scaling, clinical audit responses.
Mentor Clinic Managers, BCBA Leads, and senior BCaBAs/BCBAs — the clinical leadership pipeline is succession-planned, and the ACD is central to that succession.
Represent the clinical team in executive conversations — when the CD is unavailable or the scope is delegated. Real executive representation, not ceremonial.
In your first 90 days, success looks like:
Full integration with the CD's operational rhythm, regional clinical quality baseline established, first strategic initiative scoped and underway, and succession planning assessment complete for assigned clinical leaders.
