BCBA - Most BCBA jobs come with a billable hours target. This one doesn't.
About The Position
Lilac Learning Center is hiring a BCBA / Licensed Behavior Analyst for its non-public special education school serving autistic students ages 5 to 22 across three Washington campuses. The school is funded through school district contracts rather than insurance, so the role has no billable-hours target, insurance authorizations, payer documentation, or productivity dashboard. Clinical decisions are driven by student needs and IEP goals. The BCBA owns behavioral programming for a small, assigned roster of students at one campus and reports to the Corporate Chief of Staff. The position works closely with special education teachers, Lead Techs, and Behavior Technicians in an interdisciplinary school setting. Caseloads are in the single digits. Students may exhibit severe behavior, and physical management—including trained escorts, holds, and restraints when safety requires it—is part of the role. The school states that staff receive training and work with appropriate staffing ratios and team support. The position requires the ability to respond physically, including lifting 50 pounds and moving quickly when needed. This is a salaried, FLSA-exempt position. The stated salary range is $95,000 to $115,000, depending on experience.
