Who are you?
If you are looking for a box within which you will find a clear list of tasks to perform while you are “at work”, please do not apply – we don’t see life that way.
If you enjoy meaningful work, that focuses on RESULTS not activity, then we might be a good fit. This is a position for someone who wants to make meaning, not just money, and have an ongoing impact in the lives of the people they encounter. This person doesn’t have a need to draw attention to themselves, but they probably will, simply because they enjoy being so outgoing. They can’t help themselves; they are always paying attention to the needs of others. They look around a filled room, see the one person who is new, and walk right over to engage them, make them feel comfortable, and introduce them to others.
The person for this position lives and thinks in a world of abundance (how can I help make you successful), not in a world of scarcity (there is only so much to go around, so I better get mine before I help you get yours.)
You might be a good fit if:
1) You are looking for a company where you will make a significant impact.
2) You are highly proactive and highly detail oriented,
3) You like a fluid, expanding organization that is small, but growing rapidly
4) You enjoy meaningful work, a focus on RESULTS, work that you have to manage yourself, working very closely with other Stakeholders (people who are highly committed) and completely on your own from the office with no one watching you, and if
5) You enjoy helping us all figure out how to get there
Responsibilities Include:
1) Living out our Vision statement – “Better Lives Through Great Sleep” You don’t just work here, you get out of bed and come to work because you want to help increase the overall happiness of our community by providing excellent customer service and care. You must take on this vision and make it your own like everyone at our company. It’s not a nice statement on a wall, but a way we live at work and at home. If you don’t believe that Better Lives Through Great Sleep, this is not the place for you.
2) Live out our Mission statement – “We help people thrive through great sleep” while building lasting relationships with our customers. We are not just a one and done company. Building lasting relationships with our customers is a main priority for us. You will help mentor and support each of your patients through the diagnosis and treatment of their sleep disorder.
3) The mindset of an “owner”. This isn’t just a ‘Sleep Tech’ position. We don’t have “office managers’ or “front desk people”. We just have Stakeholders, and no matter what your role is with us, you’re as much a part of what we do as anyone else. You need to have that mindset – you are an incredibly valuable part of our team, and our customers will get to know you and lean on you to help them.
4) The mindset of an adult – We’re not looking for someone who needs to be told what to do, when to show up, what time recess is, and when they need to go home. We’re looking for someone who is a self-managed, self-motivated adult who knows what RESULT we want, and enjoys taking the bull by the horns to get it done, without being watched, managed, or directed. We all work together in community to get things done, and we need someone who will join us as an equal team member, not as an “underling” or employee/child.
5) Hours – Nightly from 7pm to 6am. We trust and help each other as we are all adults and are responsible for our own work and getting things done.
6) Pay – $505.00 per shift. We won’t let pay stand in the way of getting the right person.
7) Travel/Housing Allowance are negotiable. We won’t let location stand in the way of getting the right person.
Preferred skills:
• Sincere relational skills – not party-animal emotionalism (although being genuinely excited is fine), but great people-sense. You can look around the room and see how people are doing, who is new, who is nervous and who needs to be connected with others and made to feel comfortable.
• The desire to serve others – you get energized by helping other people, serving them, and making them smile.
• Applicants must have a wide range of administrative and communication skills as well as practical business skills and high competency in messing around with social media.
• Strong attention to detail – Is someone new standing alone? Are you prepared for the kind of appointment we’re having? Are the puzzle pieces well placed? Is the room and atmosphere inviting? Is your immediate surrounding environment neat and clean? Anything subtly wrong with the atmosphere in the room (lighting, heat)? Are you a good note taker and listener?
• Great communication skills in person, on the phone, and in writing – you ask great questions and make people feel comfortable.
• Competency in navigating computers, Respironics polysomnography systems, email, and eCW EMR system.
• Ability to logically solve problems
• Initiative and the ability to figure things out on your own with the help of process descriptions. Consistently using our process for a consistent, high quality patient experience
• Comfortable with change and working in unknown situations
• Discretion in handling and communicating sensitive information
• A positive attitude and willingness to do whatever it takes to get the job done
We look forward to hearing from you! Act now, this offer will expire once our coverage is filled, and this offer won’t last long with our generous reimbursement.
