Entry Level Clinical Education Manager Jobs

INTRODUCTION

The Education Clinical Support Manager provides direct, day-to-day clinical and experience support to candidates working with Aya Education, with a primary focus on school-based speech-language pathologists.

This is an individual contributor role that manages candidate support tickets, conducts select interviews for school-based candidates, provides coaching, and helps resolve escalated or sensitive situations involving SLPs. The role also provides general, non-clinical support to other professionals working in school settings, including teachers, paraprofessionals, and other education staff.

The ideal candidate is an experienced SLP with direct knowledge of school-based practice and an understanding of the broader school environment. This person combines clinical judgment with clear communication, empathy, strong problem-solving skills, and the ability to recognize when a concern should be escalated for additional clinical, operational, compliance, or client-facing support.
