Job Description

Board Certified Behavior Analyst

Aurora, Colorado, US

We are currently seeking a BCBA to join our team! Our BCBAs are responsible for overseeing a caseload of clients in Aurora, providing training and mentorship to developing RBTs, and coordinating/collaborating with parents, schools, and community members in Aurora.

CAC has a unique structure that ensures BCBAs get to maintain small caseloads, have access a wide variety of collaborative professionals and diverse clientele, and provides opportunities to integrate your specialized skills in innovative and distinct ways.

Colorado Autism Consultants is dedicated to overcoming barriers to make transformational ABA therapy equally accessible throughout our state. We are a tight-knit team dedicated to bringing equitable access to evidence-based therapies to individuals of unique abilities throughout our beautiful state.

What Makes CAC Unique

We develop quality clinicians from diverse backgrounds who reflect and care about the communities we serve.

We bring behavioral services to areas where access is limited—because where you live shouldn’t determine the support you get.

  • Have worked with individuals with developmental disabilities for at least two year
  • A passion for making a difference in the lives of children and adults alike
  • A strong work ethic and excellent communication skills
  • A lifelong passion for learning, and a desire to serve underserved communities
  • Valid driver's license, current insurance, MVR record, and background check

Our Competitive Benefits

  • Medical, dental, and vision insurance
  • 401K Retirement plan employer match program
  • Supplemental Insurance option (Including paid maternity leave option)
  • Employee Assistance Program
  • Professional Development funds and free CEUs
  • Travel benefits, and ability to be actively involved in on-going business planning
  • Weekly clinical training and mentorship
  • Trans-disciplinary collaboration and opportunities for growth
  • Strong potential for career advancement at all levels
  • Interested candidates should submit a cover letter, resume, and at least three professional references.

Key Responsibilities

The BCBA will oversee a caseload of 8-10 clients, create individualized treatment plans, and provide supervision and mentorship to RBTs. They will also collaborate with families, schools, and interdisciplinary providers to ensure high-quality, evidence-based therapy.

Requirements

Candidates must hold a Master’s degree and a BCBA certification. At least two years of experience working with individuals with developmental disabilities is required.
