About BACS
Bay Area Community Services (BACS) is a $100M government-contracted nonprofit providing housing, crisis stabilization, and behavioral health services to unhoused adults living with severe mental illness. With more than 50 programs and a clinical workforce that includes 30+ nurses and multiple psychiatric prescribers, BACS delivers innovative, community-based care across the Bay Area.
We are seeking a Director of Medicine to provide strategic leadership of psychiatric, medical, and nursing practice across the agency. This is a rare opportunity to shape care at scale within one of California’s most impactful behavioral health systems.
Position Overview
The Director of Medicine serves as BACS’s senior medical leader, responsible for defining and advancing the agency’s approach to psychiatric and medical care. This role is primarily strategic, administrative, and system-focused—not a direct patient care position.
The Director of Medicine oversees the professional standards, workflows, policies, and quality of psychiatric and medical services across more than 50 programs. Approximately 80% of this role focuses on psychiatric and medication management services, with the remaining 20% supporting medical and nursing services (including respite and integrated health models).
The Director works in a matrixed structure: nursing staff and prescribers report operationally to Program Managers, while the Director of Medicine (in partnership with the Director of Nursing) provides clinical leadership, practice standards, coaching, and professional oversight. Success in this role requires strong systems thinking, clinical governance expertise, and the ability to lead through influence.
This position can be hybrid, but must be partially on site based in Sacramento or Oakland/Hayward East Bay. Occasional direct service psychiatric coverage as needed.
