Claiborne Senior Living is seeking a creative and purpose-driven Life Enrichment Director to design and lead meaningful programs that enhance the daily lives of our residents.

In senior living, life enrichment is more than activities — it’s connection, engagement, and creating moments that matter. This leadership role is responsible for developing experiences that support residents’ physical, emotional, social, and intellectual well-being.

If you take ownership of creating vibrant community life, act with integrity in every interaction, remain focused on resident engagement, and believe our culture matters, we’d love to meet you.

What You’ll Do

  • Develop and execute a comprehensive life enrichment strategy aligned with resident interests and abilities
  • Lead, mentor, and schedule life enrichment associates
  • Plan and facilitate activities, events, outings, and community partnerships
  • Track participation, satisfaction, and engagement outcomes
  • Manage department budget and resources responsibly
  • Ensure programs comply with state regulations and company standards
  • Partner with families to encourage involvement and connection
  • Promote a person-centered approach to engagement
  • Maintain accurate documentation and reporting

What We’re Looking For

  • Bachelor’s degree in Gerontology, Recreational Therapy, or related field preferred
  • 2 years of leadership experience (senior living or healthcare preferred)
  • Proven ability to design and implement engaging programming
  • Strong organizational and communication skills
  • Working knowledge of state regulations related to life enrichment
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office and relevant software systems
  • Flexibility to work evenings and weekends as needed
  • Genuine passion for improving the lives of senior adults

Benefits
