BHT

The B.H.T. is responsible for monitoring and documenting activities of clients while at the facility. If you are a self-starter capable of taking initiative to analytically solve problems through deductive methods (meaning you can take critical information and figure out the rest by using mental initiative), this role will interest you. This role will also be enjoyed if you like to multi-task, work in a quick paced and rapid environment, and do well when there are tight deadlines. It is valuable to be polite and courteous because you will be communicating important technical information and processes, but there is not a need to be proactively social. If you like to become a subject matter expert who takes that knowledge and skill sets to bring tremendous value within a competitive and high energy environment, we would like to speak with you. This role will challenge you to learn and grow.
