POSITION OVERVIEW

The core roles of the School Director are to

3) GROW the company by working with the leadership team and developing school relationships.

THE OPPORTUNITY

Sound Starts is seeking a music therapist to fulfill a primary leadership role that will elevate the company to a new level of growth. This dynamic leader will maintain a caseload of music therapy clients and will also be responsible for school evaluations, attending ARDS and developing school relationships with administrators. This individual can expect to work closely with the CEO and additional leadership team members to create and execute plans to grow the company.

A TYPICAL DAY MAY LOOK LIKE

On a typical day you will fulfill music therapy services to your clients or conduct/write school evaluations. You will attend ARDs and spend time collaborating with the CEO regarding school district development. You will be on-site at our center to provide support to the team as needed. Weekly time will be dedicated to executing the company’s growth plan and consulting with the CEO and other directors.

HOURS, PAY RANGE, & BENEFITS

The available position is FULL time and salaried. Work days will most always include Saturday. Because this is an employed position (not contract), client cancellations are always paid! Sound Starts provides continuing education opportunities to team members and reimburses mileage. All positions at Sound Starts require driving, but the school director generallly drives more than other team members and travels around the metroplex (frequently in Collin & Grayson Counties but also to Denton, Tarrant and Dallas Counties on a PRN basis). The school director will still have a center home base and center caseload.

SIGN ON/REFERRAL BONUS

All new team members are eligible for a sign on bonus following hire, minimum of $1000. Additionally, if you are referred by a current Sound Starts’ team member, they are also eligible for a referral bonus! Additional details and eligibility guidelines are available upon request.

The ideal candidate would stay in this role for at least 2-3 years

Driving does not bother you. The school director travels around the metroplex (frequently in Collin & Grayson Counties but also to Denton, Tarrant and Dallas Counties on a PRN basis)

Strong writing skills and familiarity with the SEMTAP process
