About Job

Board Certified Behavior Analyst/Behavior Specialist (BCBA or PBSF) * must be able to provide credentials

We are adding one person to our team to service Lynchburg, VA and surrounding areas.

Are you tired of trying to hit billable requirements every month? Or not getting paid for administrative time and travel? Are you looking for mentorship and collaboration from other behavior analysts who are working in the field, and can help along the way?

There is no billable requirement to meet.
Flexibility in your schedule—you choose the cases that you take, and how many hours you work.
Travel time and administrative time ARE BOTH billable.
The company was founded by a behavior analyst that is experienced and works in the field, and training and mentorship is available.
Our primary customer is DARS (Department for Aging and Rehabilitative Services). The administrative demands are low and the innovation/creativity are welcome.
Position can either be part-time or full-time.
Income range is $105k-$149k annually (based on full-time hours).
We also provide a bonus every 6 months equivalent to a paid week off.

Responsibilities

General description of services and support:

Person centered problem solving – every case is different and every client is different. It helps to have a working knowledge and understanding of various disabilities, especially Autism, but every case is still different. Specific challenging behaviors are not always clear. A team member must be able to identify the roadblocks and creatively problem-solve to overcome them.
Team collaboration – a typical team can include the client (individual with support needs), all family members, the Vocational Rehabilitation Counselor, CSB Support Coordinator, a therapist, employer (possibly multiple supervisors) and an Employment Specialist. A team member must be able to bring all these parties together to implement strategies and act as a team.
Exceptional time management – a team member must be able to manage their own schedule and appointments. This requires good communication and planning. Consider organizing team meetings to include all team members mentioned above.
Behavior specific support – a team member will be able to do the following independently:
Functional behavior assessment to include:
FBA interviews with all relevant team members
Comprehensive records review
Person Centered Thinking Tools
Observation/data collection/data analyzation
Write a person-centered behavior support plan
Implement strategies from the BSP and train all team members for effectiveness of strategies.

Location: Primary locations for in person work include Lynchburg, VA, and surrounding areas.

This is not a remote position. A team member would need to be able to travel to the above areas for face-to-face support. Again, travel time is billable at the full reimbursement rate.

Qualifications

Must be a credentialed Board Certified Behavior Analyst/Behavior Specialist (BCBA or PBSF). Excellent verbal and written communication skills. Character, positive attitude and teachability are more important than experience.

Partnership parameters: this position is for a 1099 contractor; it is not traditional employment.

Application process: interested candidates should be prepared to submit a letter explaining why they would be a good fit for our team along with their current credentials.
