About the role
About the Lighthouse
Lighthouse is a specialized agency dedicated to providing top-quality Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy services for children with autism.
Our mission is to empower these children and their families by implementing evidence-based interventions that promote skill development, independence, and improved communication.
We value compassion, dedication, and professional growth, placing a strong focus on fostering a supportive environment where our team members can grow and thrive.
Job Description
Lighthouse is seeking a dedicated Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) for a specific part-time opening in the Greensboro area. You will provide one-on-one ABA therapy to a young child with autism under the supervision of a Board Certified Behavior Analyst, joining an existing team already supporting this client.
This is a defined, consistent schedule — not an on-call or variable role.
Schedule — please read before applying
This position covers a fixed 10 hours per week:
* Wednesdays, 12:00 PM – 5:00 PM * Thursdays, 12:00 PM – 5:00 PM
All sessions take place in the client's home, in the Whitsett area of eastern Guilford County — a short drive east of Greensboro. Mileage is reimbursed.
We are only able to consider applicants who are consistently available on Wednesday and Thursday afternoons. If your availability is evenings or weekends only, this particular role will not be a fit — but we encourage you to apply to our other openings.
