About the role

Community and Family Resources seeks a Residential Admissions and Authorization Specialist for our Des Moines residential programs. You will guide clients through admissions and coordinate with clinical and insurance teams to ensure a smooth transition into our facility. This role requires an associate degree and at least two years in substance use treatment, with preferred CADC certification. Strong communication with referrals and insurance providers is essential.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
