We are looking for a remote Client Care Coordinator/Receptionist to answer calls and handle scheduling for our three counseling centers whose physical locations reside in Tampa, St. Petersburg, and Sarasota. You'll have a remote login to our virtual call center where all incoming calls will be funneled where you'll manage the schedules of 12-14 clinicians. You will also be required to do a variety of administrative and clerical tasks. As a Client Care Coordinator, you are the "Voice of the Practice" so it's important to have a personality that is upbeat, positive, optimistic, non-confrontational, and empathetic. This is extremely important! As a mental health counseling center, our clients will be calling you at their most vulnerable and saddest times of their lives so it's important for you to be able to handle the emotional capacity required to maintain a positive mindset and to be able to console someone while getting them with the best clinician based on their needs. It's incredibly important that calls are handled with exceptional care and that every single person who calls has a positive experience especially with emotionally volatile clientele. Occasionally you'll handle emergencies (in which you'll be trained) in a timely and effective manner, while maintaining a cool disposition to de-escalate any tense situations that may arise with an aggravated client. Multitasking and stress management skills are essential for this position. We are the authority figure for mental health in our respective communities with an outstanding reputation so it's important your values reflect ours when it comes to customer service and overall client satisfaction. You will receive plenty of training until you and I feel confident you've fully grasped the system-wide infrastructure for scheduling, answering calls, and getting clients with the appropriate clinician on our practice management software.
