Associate Clinical Trainer

The role

Discipline: Board Certified Behavior Analyst State: Arizona Roles open: 2–3 roles Timeframe: Urgent — this month Setting: Early intervention Employment: Permanent, full-time Pay: $100,000 – $105,500 a year Enjoy developing other clinicians? Make it a bigger part of your career. You don't need to have spent ten years as a BCBA to know that helping other clinicians develop can be one of the most rewarding parts of the job. We're recruiting for an Associate Clinical Trainer in Phoenix with a growing autism services provider that takes clinical development seriously. This is an opportunity for a BCBA who enjoys mentoring, teaching and supporting others to take their first step towards clinical leadership. Rather than managing a traditional caseload, your main focus will be developing future BCBAs, supporting practicum students and helping maintain high clinical standards. The organisation specialises in early intervention for children under six, using the Early Start Denver Model (ESDM), a naturalistic, play-based approach that focuses on communication, social development and functional skills. What makes this role different? Salary of approximately $100,500 to $105,500, depending on experience. No traditional caseload in established centres, allowing you to focus on clinical supervision and development. Some newer centres may require temporary caseload support. Dedicated training responsibilities, working directly with BCBA practicum students. A first step into clinical leadership, without taking on the operational responsibilities of a Clinical Director. Early intervention focus, using naturalistic, play-based teaching methods. Multidisciplinary collaboration, alongside BCBAs, speech therapists and occupational therapists. Career progression, with potential pathways into Clinical Trainer and more senior clinical leadership positions. What you'll be doing As an Associate Clinical Trainer, you'll help develop the next generation of BCBAs while remaining closely involved in clinical practice. Your responsibilities will include: Supervising BCBA practicum students completing their fieldwork requirements. Supporting students as they develop assessment, treatment planning and clinical decision-making skills. Observing clinical sessions and providing practical, constructive feedback. Helping clinicians develop confidence in implementing ABA programmes. Supporting treatment fidelity and ethical clinical practice. Working with the wider clinical team to ensure consistent, high-quality care. Helping students understand and apply the Early Start Denver Model. You'll be supporting practicum students who typically work with small caseloads of approximately two to three children, giving you the opportunity to provide meaningful, hands-on clinical guidance. What we're looking for We're interested in BCBAs who enjoy developing others and want to move towards a career in clinical training. Ideally, you'll have: Current BCBA certification. Eligibility to practise in Arizona. Approximately two or more years of experience as a BCBA. Experience supervising, mentoring or supporting RBTs or BCBA candidates. Strong clinical judgement and a commitment to ethical practice. Good communication skills and the ability to provide constructive feedback. An interest in early intervention and naturalistic teaching. You don't need previous experience in a formal training position. We're looking for someone who has demonstrated an ability to support other clinicians and wants to build on that strength. Previous ESDM experience would be beneficial but isn't essential.
