Overview

A rapidly growing ABA organization is seeking a VP of Operations – Multi-State Expansion to lead the operational rollout of new markets across the country.

This is a high-impact executive role for someone who has successfully launched ABA operations in new states and understands what it takes to build scalable, compliant operations from the ground up.

The company already has the vision, leadership, and growth strategy in place. They are looking for an experienced operator who can take ownership of execution—building the infrastructure, implementing systems, navigating state-specific requirements, and ensuring each expansion is successful.

This is not a maintenance role. It's an opportunity to build, solve problems, and play a critical role in the organization's continued growth.

Key Responsibilities

Lead the operational launch of ABA services in new states from planning through implementation

Build the operational infrastructure needed to successfully enter and scale new markets

Develop and implement policies, procedures, workflows, and operational standards that support long-term growth

Navigate state-specific licensing, payer enrollment, credentialing, compliance, and operational requirements

Partner closely with executive leadership to execute the organization's multi-state expansion strategy

Coordinate cross-functionally with clinical, operations, credentialing, compliance, HR, finance, and other internal teams

Identify operational risks, remove roadblocks, and develop practical solutions throughout the expansion process

Ensure new markets are launched efficiently, compliantly, and with the systems needed for long-term success

Standardize operational processes while adapting to each state's unique regulatory environment

Drive accountability, organization, and execution across multiple expansion initiatives

Build scalable operational frameworks that can support continued expansion into additional states

Ideal Candidate

The ideal candidate is a builder who has successfully launched ABA operations in new markets and understands both the strategic planning and operational execution required to scale.

This person should have:

Proven experience launching and scaling ABA operations in one or more new states

Deep understanding of ABA operations, payer enrollment, credentialing, licensing, compliance, and insurance audits
