Live roles in Michigan
BCBA
Discipline: Board Certified Behavior Analyst State: Michigan Roles open: 2–3 roles Timeframe: Urgent — this month Setting: ABA and autism services Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) - Northern Michigan Looking for more than just a job? North Arrow, a growing ABA provider, is looking for BCBAs ready to put down roots, literally and professionally, in one of Michigan's most sought-after outdoor destinations. This organization serves families across Northern Michigan and is proud to be the primary or only ABA provider in several of the communities it covers. That means real impact from day one. Why clinicians are making the move: Own a piece of what you build. As the organization grows, the team shares in that growth through an employee stock ownership structure, so your work here builds equity, not just a paycheck. A caseload that protects your time. Schedules are managed centrally so you're never fielding cancellations or on-call requests. A dedicated team handles the admin so you can focus on clinical work. AI-generated documentation. Fully AI-generated SOAP notes are rolling out this year, cutting one of the biggest time drains in the field. Genuine mentorship. Monthly in-person supervisor meetings with CEUs, regular observation and coaching from your clinical director, and a dedicated first-year cohort program if you're newer to supervision. Two ways to bonus, every month. Most clinicians earn a bonus monthly, some adding over $10,000 a year, plus a separate PTO bonus tied to client outcomes and quality. Assent-based practice, always. The organization follows the child's lead. If that philosophy matters to you, you'll feel right at home. In-person, ramped-up support. New BCBAs build their caseload gradually over their first 90 days, with lead and float technicians and trained apprentices taking work off your plate. The lifestyle: This is the trade-off worth making. Trade the traffic for trailheads, the desk for the outdoors, and a transactional job for a place people genuinely plan to stay. Whether it's hiking, fishing, hunting, or just a slower pace of life, Northern Michigan delivers it year round. Relocation support available. Up to $10,000 in relocation assistance for the right candidate, plus help getting settled. Compensation: Competitive base depending on experience, plus monthly bonus potential, 401(k) with match, health benefits, and PTO. What we're looking for: Clinicians who are curious, adaptable, and genuinely care about the kids and families they serve. Experience is welcome but not required. We invest in people who want to grow with us. If you've ever wondered what it would be like to actually love where you live and work, apply now and we'll tell you more.
