Registered Behavior Technician - PRN (On-Call, Same-Day Pay)

Job Description

Job Description

Roger Williams Academy (RWA) is a small, BCBA-Owned, ABA therapy company dedicated to the development of growth mindsets through Empathy, Education, Analysis, and Applied Learning. At RWA, we’re committed to human-centeredness, which means that our goal is to encourage growth without compromising the TRUE essence of the individual(s). Anyone that has the capacity to learn can grow given the opportunity, resources, and environment conducive for success. That’s our commitment to our clients, employees, and stakeholders alike. We’ll provide the opportunity, develop individualized resources, create the necessary environment, and watch you blossom!

Roger Williams Academy is building a PRN (on-call) bench of Registered Behavior Technicians (RBTs) to cover sessions at our Houston clinic when a regular team member is out. There is no fixed schedule. When a session opens up during clinic hours (Monday - Friday, 8 AM - 4 PM), we send an alert to our PRN team and you choose whether to pick it up.

PAY: $186 per full day (8 AM - 4 PM). Get about 70% of your pay the SAME DAY: we pay out $130 in cash at the end of every full-day shift you work. The remaining balance is held to reconcile payroll taxes, and anything left over after taxes is direct deposited to your account on our regular payroll schedule. This is a W-2 position, so you receive a regular pay stub. Half-day (one session) shifts are $90, with the same ~70% same-day payout: $63 in cash at the end of the shift, and any remainder after taxes direct deposited.

REQUIREMENTS: Active RBT credential and ABA clinic experience. Must be reliable when accepting a shift on short notice. Bilingual (English/Spanish) is a plus, but not required.

A little bit about us.

RWA was founded on September 2021 out of necessity, and quite frankly, growing desperation. Prior to starting the company, founder/CEO, Glenn Harrell, was eager to find a place of employment where he felt the needs of the individuals were prioritized at every level. He wanted to work for a place that put people over profits and removed the pedestals that separated lower-level clinicians from leadership. Glenn desired to be somewhere that truly invested in the growth and development of the PEOPLE so that the PEOPLE were motivated, intrinsically. In doing so, they would provide the highest quality therapy to the clients and stakeholders.
