BCBA

Description

This is a brand new BCBA role, the first full-time BCBA position, at a Philadelphia-based behavioral health organization serving children and youth through an intensive, home and community-based IBHS/ABA program. You'll carry your own caseload of roughly 10 to 14 children and young adults, working across home, school, and community settings for a minimum of 25 billable hours per week, primarily in Northeast Philadelphia with the team based out of Mount Airy. Expect a fair amount of time on the road between sites. You'll set your own schedule, most days run daytime hours Monday through Friday, with an evening or weekend only occasionally needed around a family's availability. You'll also supervise Behavior Consultants, Assistant Behavior Consultants, and Behavior Health Technicians, and report to the ABA Clinical Director. This isn't a mill, the clinical bar is high and the kids are front and center. New and recently certified BCBAs are welcome, training and mentorship are part of the role.
