Behavioral Health Technician (Youth Mentor)

We’re hiring reliable, strong-minded individuals to work directly with teenage boys in a structured residential setting for Morning, PM and Grave shifts. This is a hands-on role where you’ll be actively involved in mentorship, accountability, and daily operations—not sitting behind a desk.

If you’re someone who values discipline, leadership, teamwork, and making a real impact, this role puts you in a position to help young men build better habits, respect structure, and move forward in life.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Supervise and lead groups of teenage boys in a residential setting
• Maintain structure, enforce rules, and hold residents accountable
• Stay actively engaged throughout your shift (this is not a sit-down job)
• Step in during conflicts and use de-escalation techniques
• Lead or participate in recreational activities, fitness, and daily routines
• Support residents with chores, meals, and responsibilities
• Transport residents to outings, school, or appointments
• Document behaviors and communicate with your team

Why This Role Stands Out

• Active work environment – you’ll be on your feet, not behind a desk
• Team-based culture – staff rely on each other and work together
• Real responsibility – you’re trusted to lead and make decisions
• Overtime opportunities available
• Consistent scheduling

Who This Role Is Great For

This position is a strong fit for individuals with backgrounds or interest in:

• Sports / athletics
• Coaching or mentoring
• Military, law enforcement, or security
• Warehouse or physically active jobs
• Psychology, social work, or criminal justice

Preferred (but not required)

• Experience in coaching, mentoring, security, behavioral health, or working with youth
• Background in sports, military, or team leadership roles

Requirements

• 21 years or older
• Valid driver’s license
• Able to pass a background check
• High school diploma or GED
• Comfortable working in a structured, high-energy environment

Training Provided

• CPR / First Aid
• Crisis intervention & de-escalation
• Hands-on training with experienced staff

Compensation & Perks

• $16–$18/hr based on experience
• Supportive, team-oriented environment
• Casual dress

What We’re Looking For

• Strong communication and confidence in setting boundaries
• Ability to stay calm under pressure
• Team player with a solid work ethic
• Someone who leads by example and follows through

Important to Know

This role requires consistency, awareness, and the ability to step in when situations escalate. You’ll be working closely with youth who need structure, guidance, and strong role models
