Since 1981, when we opened our first community, we’ve delivered a pioneering approach to assisted living designed to give residents a supportive, stimulating environment where they will thrive in mind, body, and spirit.
In every one of our assisted living communities, our compassionate staff help our residents maintain their wellbeing, form meaningful connections, and engage with the things they care about. We work to meet each resident’s unique needs, with quality care and an environment that offers a sense of belonging for our residents, as though they are a member of a family.
We respect the culture and personality that forms in each one of our communities. Because our communities are more intimate than many, with an average of 40 to 60 apartments per location, we are able to tailor our programs to the interests and abilities of our residents. We help our residents do the things they’ve always loved, or find new interests, make friends, and rekindle their own spark.
Every Enlivant resident is unique. The men and women who move to our communities arrive with their own needs, stories, and dreams. That’s why we tailor our services to the specific needs of each resident – from assistance with daily activities to dining, activities and more. Our approach to compassionate, individualized care is focused on enhancing the health and wellness of the residents we serve every day.
Working at Enlivant means being part of an extended family of residents and staff, who are all enjoying the opportunity to thrive. We work together to provide quality care and build a true sense of community, and share a commitment to making a difference in the lives of seniors.
We seek hardworking, compassionate and dedicated professionals, who are inspired to make a difference to join our team.
From our Concierges to Care Partners, our team helps our residents with many different daily needs - whether it's a ride to the store, a medication reminder, or encouragement to join in new activities.
Positions include Medication Assistant, Maintenance Technician, Chef and Dining Services, Housekeeper, Driver, Care Partner, and Concierge.
Community Leaders are available in one of our more than 230 communities located across 27 different states. Members of our residence teams supervise and coordinate services and care for a single assisted living community.
Positions include Executive Director (Operations), Care Services Manager (Clinical/Nursing), and Community Relations Manager (Sales and Marketing).
Regional directors and specialists provide leadership to our residences and communities across multiple states. They are responsible for overseeing the operations, growth and development of communities in their assigned region.
Positions include Regional Director of Operations, Regional Director of Care Services, Regional Director of Sales and Marketing, Area Executive Director, Care Services Specialist, and Divisional Specialist.
Corporate positions oversee and support the residential and regional teams. They also develop the overall strategies for business development and company growth. A variety of corporate positions exist at Enlivant focused in our Chicago Support Center.
Positions include roles in Marketing, Business Development, Human Resources, IT, Finance and Accounting, and Facilities.
The Enlivant core values are at the heart of everything we do. They guide our actions and our interactions with our residents and one another. In every Enlivant location, you’ll find a group of people who believe in:
Compassion- Our commitment to caring sets us apart.
Humility- Our residents and employees come first.
Integrity- We always do the right thing.
Excellence- Together, we strive to be the best in all we do.
Fun- We love what we do - we enrich the lives of seniors.
When older adults need help in their daily routine, it can have a large impact on how they care for themselves and engage with the world. We believe that, when given access to a vibrant environment, every senior can thrive in mind, body and spirit. An Enlivant community offers residents as much assistance as they need, while providing them with ample opportunity to make friends, try a new hobby or rekindle an old passion.

I have been working at Enlivant full-time (More than 5 years)
Pros
Just passing my 5 yr anniversary with this company I have seen a lot of changes. Some good, some bad. Bottom line this company lives and manages by its MVV. Of course numbers are a focus because, and to those negative reviewers be honest with yourselves, if they didn't worry about numbers we would be out of a job giving us this wonderful opportunity to serve our amazing residents. Senior living is hard work. With a realistic perspective and "big picture" in mind, success is within reach at Enlivant. It takes time and sometimes starting over to build a solid community team. At a community level you will not have control over who your regionals are but as with any other company, you need to learn to work with all kinds of people. Keep the focus. Invest the time and commit to Enlivant because they are committed to you.
Cons
The specialist positions are an amazing asset. However, more promotion/ mentoring to those positions from within would put people in those roles who've actually done the job for Enlivant. If hiring from the outside, especially from an ops standpoint, more house level onboarding would be beneficial for them.
Advice to Management
No advice. Enlivant proud!
Application
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Enlivant (San Diego, CA).
Interview
Phone interview with recruiter followed by an online assessment. Two days later scheduled an in person interview with RDO. Two interviews were exactly one week apart. Process was straightforward and timeline was as described by the recruiter.
