Service and Support Administrator Supervisor
A typical day in the life of a Service and Support Administrator Supervisor involves offering leadership and guidance to a team of 6 to 11 SSAs. Your day might start with reviewing emails, catching up on anything that came overnight, and checking the time management system for any leave requests or timekeeping issues that may need attention. You will meet with SSAs on your team. These conversations might involve working through a complex case situation, offering general guidance, or conducting routine supervisory check ins. Some meetings happen in person, others over Zoom. Throughout the day, you will be reviewing ISPs, and case notes your team has entered, providing thoughtful feedback and mentoring to strengthen quality. Through these reviews, you will offer a mix of coaching, quality assurance, and support for staff, helping them think through how they document their work in a way that best supports individuals and aligns with agency expectations. You may spend time in the field with an SSA on your team conducting field supervision, again providing feedback and guidance to help strengthen staff development in practical, meaningful ways. Your schedule might also include meetings with office or agency leadership. These conversations often focus on bigger picture items such as policy updates, processes that need refining, or ways to support and clarify the SSA role across the organization. You may hear from and offer support to individuals served or their families who want to talk through questions or concerns about the supports they are receiving. Team meetings are another regular part of the role. You will review agency or statewide updates as well as building connections and consistency within your team. You may also participate in meetings with other SSA Supervisors and office administration where you will receive updates about both agency and statewide updates that impact the SSA role. By the end of the day, you will have offered support and guidance on individual issues, team needs, system improvements, and family concerns, strengthening your team, the agency and the services individuals receive.
