Overview

Avento Health has partnered with a nonprofit organization serving individuals with developmental and related disabilities to identify a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) for a full-time opportunity in Springfield, Illinois.

This role offers meaningful clinical work in residential and community settings with flexibility, strong mission alignment, and no set minimum billable hours requirement. The BCBA will support individuals in home and community environments while collaborating with direct care staff, guardians, and interdisciplinary team members.

Sign-on and relocation assistance may be available for eligible candidates who commit to one year of employment.

Responsibilities

• Develop, update, and oversee Behavior Support Programs and related clinical documentation
• Complete behavioral assessments, functional behavior analyses, risk assessments, and monthly notes
• Provide supervision and behavioral guidance aligned with BCBA standards
• Train and support direct care staff on behavior intervention strategies and individualized plans
• Monitor implementation quality, documentation accuracy, and opportunities for retraining
• Participate in interdisciplinary collaboration with internal teams, guardians, and outside providers
• Respond to phone-based on-call needs as required
• Provide services in homes, community settings, and other client environments as needed

Required Qualifications

• Active BCBA certification through the BACB
• Ability to provide supervision
• Experience with behavior assessments, intervention planning, and staff support

• Strong documentation, communication, and collaboration skills

Preferred Qualifications

Skills

• Behavior assessment and analysis
• Behavior support planning
• Staff training and supervision
• Clinical documentation
• Interdisciplinary collaboration
• Community-based service delivery

Work Environment

Behavior Analysts have an office location to work from, but most services are delivered onsite in individuals’ homes, in the community, and during outings. This is a hands-on, field-based role with flexibility in scheduling based on client needs.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

• Starting salary of $85,000 annually
• Sign-on and relocation assistance may be available with a one-year commitment
• No set minimum billable hours required
• Flexible full-time schedule
• Comprehensive benefits package
• Mission-driven work supporting adults in community living settings
• Opportunity to provide hands-on behavioral support across residential and community environments

Benefits

Eligible employees have access to a comprehensive benefits package, which may include medical plan options, dental insurance, vision insurance, telemedicine and virtual mental health access, prescription benefits, long-term disability coverage for eligible full-time employees, employer-paid life and accidental death and dismemberment insurance for eligible employees, and voluntary life coverage options.

Benefits are subject to eligibility requirements and official plan documents.
