Banyan Treatment Centers is seeking a licensed clinician to serve as a Clinical Review Specialist within our Admissions team. In this role, you'll function as a key clinical checkpoint in the admissions process by evaluating prospective clients to determine medical and clinical appropriateness for treatment, coordinating with site clinical and medical leaders, and helping ensure every admission decision is grounded in quality, safety, and the right fit for the individual.

This is a role for a clinician who brings sound independent judgment, thrives in a collaborative environment, and understands that the decision to admit, or not, has real consequences for the people we serve. If you're motivated by getting it right, not just getting it done, we want to hear from you.

About Banyan Treatment Centers

Banyan Treatment Centers is a leading national provider of intensive treatment for individuals facing substance use and mental health disorders. Backed by TPG, one of the nation’s largest private equity investors, Banyan has physical locations across 8 states and a growing telehealth program — rapidly expanding access to high-quality, compassionate care nationwide.

Why join our team?

• Your judgment protects patients. This isn't a support role—it's a clinical function. The decisions you make directly shape who receives care and how safely they enter treatment.
• Mission-driven work at a Joint Commission–accredited, nationally recognized organization backed by TPG's Rise Fund—with the stability and reach of a national provider.
• A real growth opportunity. This part-time role is a genuine path to full-time employment for the right clinician.
• Cross-functional collaboration with Admissions, Clinical, and facility leadership in a remote, team-oriented environment where your clinical expertise directly enables patient access to care.
  
  

Core competencies

The Strongest Candidates Will Demonstrate The Following

• Clinical judgment — You assess medical and psychiatric presentations with confidence, know when to escalate, and make defensible decisions that put patient safety first.
• Integrity & accountability — You do what you say you'll do. The people on the other end of the review are counting on it.
• Communication — You communicate clearly with clinical and medical leaders, document accurately, and convey complex clinical information in a way that moves the process forward.
• Empathy with professionalism — You engage with prospective clients and families respectfully and without judgment, while maintaining the objectivity the role demands.
• Adaptability — Admissions is fast-moving. You stay grounded when priorities shift, and you bring solutions, not just problems.
