Job description

Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) – Part-Time

Bellevue / Bothell & Greater Eastside, WA

$50–$70/hour | W-2 Employee | Flexible Part-Time Schedule

Cole Academy is growing our ABA services in Washington, and we're looking for a part-time BCBA who wants meaningful clinical work, flexibility, and the opportunity to help us bring high-quality ABA services to more families throughout the Bellevue/Bothell and surrounding areas.

This is a part-time W-2 employee position—not a contractor/1099 role.

Initially, this position will focus primarily on direct BCBA services with patients and families. As our Washington ABA program grows, the role may expand to include additional clinical responsibilities such as RBT supervision, mentorship, treatment oversight, and leadership opportunities.

Services may be provided in the home, community, at a Cole location, or through a combination of settings, depending on patient need.

What You’ll Want to Know First

• $50–$70/hour based on experience

• Part-time W-2 employment

• Flexible schedule based on your availability and patient needs

• Strong need for afternoon and after-school availability

• Primarily direct BCBA services initially

• In-home, community and/or center-based opportunities

• Mileage reimbursement for patient-related travel

• Opportunity to increase hours and responsibilities as Washington ABA services grow

• Experienced clinical leadership and BCBA support

• Free CEU opportunities through Cole Academy

• Family-owned and clinician-led since 2001

• Collaborate with Speech, Occupational, and Physical therapists

• A true Patient First culture

Where We're Growing

Current and developing patient needs include:

Bellevue Bothell Kirkland Redmond Everett Lake Stevens Snohomish Monroe Mercer Island and surrounding communities

Our goal is to build schedules thoughtfully around patient needs, clinician availability, and geographic area whenever possible.

We know Washington traffic is real, and we want to avoid creating schedules that require unnecessary travel across large service areas.

What This Role May Include

Initially, your role will focus largely on direct BCBA-level services, including:

• Conducting behavioral assessments and reassessments

• Developing individualized treatment plans

• Providing direct ABA treatment when clinically appropriate

• Analyzing patient data and modifying programming

• Providing caregiver training and support

• Completing required clinical documentation

• Collaborating with families and other members of the patient's care team

• Supporting skill acquisition, behavior reduction, independence, communication, and meaningful quality-of-life goals

• Collaborating with Speech, Occupational, and Physical Therapy professionals when appropriate

As our Washington program grows, opportunities may expand to include:

• RBT supervision

• Clinical mentorship

• Staff training

• Treatment oversight

• Program development

• Leadership opportunities

At Cole, growth should happen thoughtfully. We're focused on building a strong clinical foundation first and expanding responsibilities as patient and staffing needs develop.

Who We're Looking For

You may be a great fit if you:

• Hold current Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) certification

• Hold or are eligible to obtain the appropriate Washington State credential/licensure

• Have experience working with children with autism and developmental differences

• Enjoy direct clinical work with patients and families

• Are comfortable working independently while still valuing collaboration and clinical support

• Communicate well with families and other professionals

• Are organized and able to manage documentation and clinical responsibilities

• Believe in ethical, individualized ABA

• Have reliable transportation for community and in-home services when applicable

Why Cole?

Cole Health has been family-owned and clinician-led since 2001.

Our culture is built around:

Patient First | Integrity | Heart of Service | Faith & Hope

Cole already serves Washington families through pediatric therapy services, and we're excited to thoughtfully expand ABA services within those communities.

You'll have the opportunity to join an established pediatric organization while helping shape a growing ABA program from the ground up.

Flexible Part-Time Can Actually Mean Flexible

Whether you're looking for a few consistent afternoons each week, a 10–15 hour schedule, 20+ hours as patient demand grows, or a part-time role that could evolve into something larger—we'd like to talk.

We're interested in learning what schedule, geographic area, and type of clinical work fit you best and seeing whether that aligns with the families we are preparing to serve.

If you're looking for meaningful BCBA work without committing to a traditional full-time schedule, we'd love to connect.
