There is nothing more important than family for Andover’s Nick Barash, the new executive director of Benchmark Senior Living at Haverhill Crossings, an assisted living and Mind & Memory Care community. For nearly a decade, his North Shore senior living career has focused on supporting older adults and their loved ones in the best way possible. His desire to provide the best care and experiences brought him to Haverhill Crossings.

“Throughout my career, I’ve worked with many Benchmark associates who I consider top-notch and found myself drawn to Benchmark’s strong culture,” says Barash. “They support their residents, families and associates in ways that are unlike any other senior living provider I’ve worked for, and I feel fortunate to be part of such a talented team.”

Barash comes to Benchmark from Atria Merrimack Place in Newburyport where he was the executive director. Previously, he was with Landmark Senior Living communities in Beverly. Barash graduated from James Madison University with a bachelor’s degree in kinesiology.

He and his wife, a social worker for Lowell Public Schools concentrating on special education for middle school students, have three children.

“Nick has an infectious energy and a passion for connecting with people that’s immediately present in every interaction,” said Noeline Alberts, regional director of operations for Benchmark Senior Living. “His local knowledge is unsurpassed, and the many relationships he has are already benefitting our residents and families, so we are excited to have him on board.”
