Salary: $55,000–$70,000 per year + Uncapped Performance-Based Commission
Schedule: Full-time
Help Someone Take the First Step Toward Recovery
At Milestone Treatment Center, an admissions call can be the beginning of someone changing their life.
We’re looking for a motivated, compassionate Admissions Coordinator who can connect with people, build trust quickly, and help individuals and families navigate one of the most important decisions they may ever make.
This is a consultative, performance-driven role for someone who enjoys talking with people, solving problems, overcoming obstacles, and turning conversations into action. You’ll work with prospective clients, families, healthcare professionals, and referral partners while guiding individuals from their first conversation through admission into treatment.
You’ll also have the opportunity to earn uncapped performance-based commission while doing work with a genuine purpose.

• Build trust with callers, understand their circumstances, and help them navigate available treatment options
• Conduct pre-assessments to gather information and determine appropriate next steps
• Verify insurance benefits and explain coverage and treatment options clearly
• Identify and address barriers to treatment, including finances, transportation, family concerns, employment, and fear or uncertainty about entering treatment
• Manage inbound inquiries from multiple lead sources and adapt your approach based on each individual’s needs and readiness for treatment
• Own your admissions pipeline from initial inquiry through admission, maintaining consistent and timely follow-up
• Use Salesforce or a comparable CRM to manage leads, opportunities, follow-ups, and activity
• Develop strong professional relationships with referral sources and community partners

Preferred qualifications include:

• 2+ years of experience in behavioral health admissions, healthcare sales, inside sales, or another high-volume consultative sales environment

• Strong organization, follow-through, and attention to detail
• Ability to work independently while contributing to a collaborative team
• Behavioral health, mental health, or substance use treatment experience is highly preferred
  

What Success Looks Like
Success in this role isn’t simply about taking calls. Our strongest Admissions Coordinators build relationships, follow through, and create a clear path from inquiry to treatment.
Performance is measured through lead-to-admission conversion, speed to lead, pipeline management, follow-up consistency, call quality, documentation accuracy, client experience, teamwork, and overall admissions performance.
