About this position
Director of Engagement
At Thrive Senior Living, we believe older adults deserve awe, admiration, and a life filled with purpose. We don’t do “activities.” We engineer connection. We build relationships. We create moments that matter.
We are looking for a Director of Engagement who is bold, relational, and energized by people. This role is for someone who sees possibility everywhere, leads with heart, and knows that great care is a by-product of great relationships.
What You’ll Do
• Engineer meaningful daily life by pairing resident passions with people, programs, and experiences
• Build and maintain a monthly activity calendar that reflects resident interests and keeps life vibrant and engaging
• Plan and coordinate on-site and off-site activities, events, entertainment, and outings
• Serve as a liaison between residents and families around activities and engagement
• Build relationships with volunteers and community partners to bring fresh energy and connection into the community
• Escort and accompany residents to and from activities, events, and common areas—bringing the world to them every day
• Safely drive the community bus for outings, events, and physician appointments—bringing the world to our residents
• Lead, develop, and inspire engagement team members and volunteers
• Manage the engagement department budget responsibly
• Partner across departments to create a culture that feels alive, welcoming, and unmistakably Thrive
Who You Are
• A relationship guardian who leads low and earns influence
• Gritty, creative, and action-oriented, you find a way
• Comfortable being visible, active, and hands-on every day
• A confident, safety-minded driver with a valid license and clean driving record
• Someone who believes purpose doesn’t retire
What You Bring
• High School Diploma or GED required
• 2+ years of leadership experience in engagement, hospitality, recreation, or a related field preferred
• Experience with older adults is a plus, but heart and mindset matter most
• Ability to push occupied wheelchairs and assist with residents mobility; physical exertion will vary based on terrain, distance and resident needs.
• Ability to work a flexible schedule including evenings, weekends, and holidays
Why Thrive
• We don’t ask people to fit into systems; we build systems around people
• We value courage, empathy, determination, and fun
• We believe every breath has purpose
• No two days look the same and that’s exactly how we like it
If you’re ready to build trust, foster relationships, and encourage action, we’d love to meet you.
