At Carelinks ABA, the Intake Coordinator is often one of the very first people a family interacts with on their journey with us. We take that responsibility seriously. We need someone who can clearly and confidently explain what ABA is, what services can look like, and what families can expect from the process, especially to parents who may be completely new to ABA and already overwhelmed by everything coming their way. You don't need to be a clinician, but you do need to understand ABA well enough to speak about it comfortably, answer common questions, and help families feel informed and confident about taking the next step.
We're looking for someone who genuinely owns the intake process from the first inquiry through enrollment. This isn't a role for someone who waits for a task to land in their inbox. We need someone who sees what needs to happen next, takes initiative, follows up relentlessly, and makes sure nothing falls through the cracks.
You'll be juggling multiple families at different stages of the intake process at any given time. Some will need paperwork. Some will need insurance information sorted out. Some will need a phone call. And sometimes, you'll need to figure out what's holding things up and find a way to get things moving again.
The right person is organized, warm, persistent, and comfortable working independently. You should have a natural sense of urgency and, most importantly, you close the loop.
What You'll Own
Who We're Looking For
We're less concerned about checking every box on a résumé and more interested in finding someone who has the right mindset.
You'll likely thrive in this role if you:
- Are naturally organized and can keep track of a lot of moving pieces.
- Are proactive—you don't need someone reminding you three times to follow up.
- Have a strong sense of urgency and understand that families are waiting for care.
- Can learn and understand ABA well enough to explain it confidently and accurately to families.
- Are persistent without losing the warmth and compassion families deserve.
- Communicate clearly and professionally by phone, text, and email.
- Enjoy solving problems rather than simply pointing them out.
- Can work independently and take genuine ownership of your responsibilities.
- Are comfortable being held accountable for results, not just activity.
- Learn new systems and technology quickly.
- Care about creating a great experience for families.
Experience
Experience in intake, admissions, recruiting, sales, customer service, healthcare, behavioral health, or another fast-paced, people-facing role is preferred.
Experience working with insurance payors, including commercial insurance and Medicaid, is a big plus. Previous ABA experience is strongly preferred, particularly if you've worked directly with families and understand how to explain ABA services in a clear, approachable way.
A bachelor's degree in psychology, social work, counseling, or a related field is preferred, but we're absolutely open to the right person without one.
About Carelinks ABA
Carelinks was built around a pretty simple idea: families seeking ABA shouldn't feel like they're just another name on a waitlist.
We provide compassionate, naturalistic ABA therapy and believe the experience surrounding the care matters too. From the first phone call through the start of services, we want families to feel that there are real people on the other side who care, communicate, and get things done.
That's where this role comes in.
If you're someone who takes ownership, loves getting things across the finish line, and wants your work to actually matter to the families you're helping, we'd love to hear from you.
