• Support the Administrator with daily operations and staffing needs
• Review and audit documentation, including progress notes, MARs, SIRs, and staff/client files
• Support residents with ADLs, behavioral support plans, and independence goals
• Monitor and manage Personal & Incidental (P&I) funds
• Help maintain a clean, safe, organized, and compliant home
• Assist with medical appointments and follow‑up care
• Respond to incidents and ensure appropriate reporting and follow‑up
• Work directly with residents and staff when needed
• Work various shifts depending on home needs
• Other duties as assigned

What We're Looking For

The ideal candidate is:

• An experienced ARF professional with strong leadership skills
• Comfortable working with individuals who have moderate to severe behavioral needs
• Able to supervise and coach staff while maintaining a positive, professional environment
• Organized and detail‑oriented with strong documentation skills
• Comfortable managing schedules, staffing issues, and unexpected situations
• Calm and solution‑oriented under pressure
• Reliable, accountable, and willing to step in when the team needs support
• Hands‑on and comfortable working directly with residents and DSP staff
• Ability to work various shifts based on home needs

Experience Required

• 2–3 years of experience in an ARF or similar residential setting
• At least 1 year of supervisory or lead staff experience
• Experience with behavioral support and developmental disabilities strongly preferred

What We Offer

$24.00–$28.00 per hour, depending on experience and qualifications

Full‑time employees receive:

• Health insurance
• Dental insurance
• Vision insurance
• 401(k) with company match
• Life insurance
• Paid sick time
• Training and professional development

This is a full‑time, in‑person leadership position in a 24/7 residential program.

The Assistant Administrator must be able to:

• Work a flexible schedule based on resident and operational needs
• Work various shifts as needed
• Work weekends and holidays
• Step in and provide leadership and operational support when unexpected staffing or resident needs arise

Is This the Right Fit for You?

If you are an experienced ARF professional who enjoys leading people, solving problems, supporting residents, and being involved in the day‑to‑day operation of a home, we would love to hear from you.

This role requires reliability, accountability, and the ability to manage challenging behaviors in a structured environment.
