Clubhouse Manager

Are You Our Next Colleague?

When you walk up the ramp and through the door of Side by Side you may smell a casserole baking from the kitchen and hear a vacuum cleaner down the hall. It’s bright, open, and welcoming. It’s bustling with activity and you can’t tell clients (who we call members) from staff. That’s all by design. If you’ve ever been inside a Clubhouse partnership-model program, you know you’ve come home.

Our next Program Director will look forward to feeling as satisfied as they are tired at the end of a day. They will share the pride of someone they helped master a dessert recipe, sweep the dining room one-handed, or put their accounting expertise to work reconciling lunch money collections that day. They will model for the staff they supervise how working side-by-side with members honors each person’s strengths and talents that are needed and valued no matter the thinking or physical challenges they may face. They will support staff to meet their own goals of development just as they do members.
