Administrator Jobs in Iowa

An Administrator in the social service industry is responsible for managing the daily operations of a social service entity, such as a nursing home, a social welfare agency, a community center, or a non-profit organization. They oversee the strategic planning, budgeting, and staffing, ensuring the services provided meet the community's needs and comply with government regulations. They also play a crucial role in creating and implementing policies, resolving conflicts, improving efficiency, and ensuring the satisfaction of both staff and service recipients.
