About The Position

BAYADA Home Health Care is seeking a Director for our Essex County Assistive Care (ECA) office in Livingston, NJ. This office is part of BAYADA's Assistive Care practice, which provides personal care and companionship services in the home and is known for relationship-driven, personalized support for clients and families. This is a rebuilding office with real upside — you'll have the opportunity to build a team and referral base from the ground up, growing the office from its current census toward 80–100 clients. If you're energized by starting fresh and shaping an office's culture and growth trajectory, this is a strong fit. At BAYADA, every role is connected to our mission of helping people have a safe home life with comfort, independence, and dignity. If you are a hands-on leader who is passionate about service excellence, developing others, growing an office, and making a meaningful impact in the community, this could be the next step in your career.

Comfortable using data, dashboards, and reports to manage performance and drive action.
Strong communication and relationship-building skills with clients, families, caregivers, and internal partners.
