Executive Director: Lead a High-Impact Senior Living Community

At the heart of Sunrise Senior Living is a culture deeply rooted in championing the quality of life for all seniors. This mission, established by founders Paul and Terry Klaassen in 1981, continues to be the driving force behind every aspect of the organization. Inspired by a Dutch model of warm and nurturing care environments, Sunrise has cultivated a resident-centered approach that focuses on individuality while fostering purposeful living and meaningful connections. The company's core values – Passion, Joy in Service, Stewardship, Respect, Trust, Accountability, and Excellence – are not just words on a page, but principles that every team member lives by. This commitment is reflected in the personalized care and services provided, where every aspect of the environment and support is tailored to the specific wants and needs of each individual resident.

Sunrise's vision is to create the preferred lifestyle for seniors to enjoy longer, healthier, and happier lives. This is achieved through a holistic approach that encompasses not only physical well-being but also emotional, social, and spiritual fulfillment. The team members, who are considered the backbone of the organization, are dedicated to creating a supportive, nurturing, and fulfilling environment. Sunrise invests in its team through training, professional development, and comprehensive benefits, recognizing that their dedication and compassion are paramount to delivering an exceptional resident experience. The company fosters a culture of continuous learning and improvement, always striving to provide the best possible senior care and a personalized lifestyle. This dedication to its residents and team members has led to numerous accolades, including consistent recognition as a Great Place to Work. The emphasis on involving family and friends, preserving dignity, enabling freedom of choice, celebrating individuality, nurturing the spirit, and encouraging independence are the foundational Principles of Service that guide daily interactions and care within every Sunrise community.
