Professional Wingman Jobs (NOW HIRING)

The Mission

Do you believe that everyone deserves a vibrant social life and a supportive home environment? We are looking for a Community Support Mentor to join our team. This isn't a "sit and watch" kind of job. You'll be the bridge between our clients and their communities, acting as a coach, a companion, and a professional "wingman" for navigating life.

The Two Sides of the Role

Your day-to-day will focus on two primary service areas:

• In-Home Respite
  • Providing high-quality care within the client's home. You'll help with daily routines, engage in hobbies, and provide primary caregivers with the peace of mind they need to recharge.
• Community Networking
  • Getting out there! You'll help clients identify interests (like clubs, sports, or volunteering), attend local events together, and build the social skills needed for lasting independence.

What You'll Actually Do

• Be a Social Architect: Help clients discover local events, classes, or groups that align with their passions.
• Provide Meaningful Respite: Create a safe, fun, and engaging environment at home-whether that's playing board games, meal prepping together, or simply hanging out.
• Bridge the Gap: Actively facilitate introductions and interactions in the community until the client feels confident doing it solo.
• Documentation: Keep brief, clear notes on progress and goals (nothing fancy, just the facts).
  

Who You Are

• Relationally Minded: You're a "people person" who knows how to build trust and maintain professional boundaries.
• Adaptive: You can read the room. You know when to step in and help and when to step back and let the client lead.
• Reliable: Our families and clients count on you. Consistency is your middle name.
• Resourceful: You know your way around the local community (or you're a pro at using Google to find the coolest local spots).
  

Administrative Note

• Scope of Work: Perform other duties as assigned by Managers or Directors to support the evolving needs of the individuals and the agency.
• Operational Flexibility: The expectation to work additional hours beyond your primary schedule, availability between 7:00 am to 7:00 pm, to meet the needs of our clients, address emergencies, or ensure operational excellence.

The Must-Haves:

• Education: High school diploma or equivalent.
• Credentials: Valid Driver's License (Class E), reliable transportation, and a clean driving record.
• Compliance: Must pass a comprehensive background check (FCSR/EDL/OIG/SOR).
• Certifications: Current CPR/First Aid certification, possibly obtaining the L1MA (or willingness to obtain certification upon hire).

Why Join Us?

• Flexible Scheduling: Perfect for students or those looking for meaningful supplemental income.
• Work That Matters: You aren't just filling a shift; you're helping someone build a life they love.
• Supportive Culture: We don't just drop you in the deep end. You'll have the training and backup you need to succeed.
  

The Tech-Forward Edge

We don't just use technology; it is the backbone of how we create, collaborate, and communicate. As a highly technical organization, we operate at a fast pace where digital fluency isn't just a plus-it's a prerequisite. We expect every member of our team to be more than just "comfortable" with a computer; you should be a power user who thrives in a cloud-first environment.

What We're Looking For:

• High Technical Aptitude: You possess a natural curiosity for software and a "figure-it-out" mentality when navigating new platforms.
• Google Workspace Mastery: Preference is given to candidates who are experts in the Google Workspace ecosystem (Drive, Docs, Sheets, Slides, and Admin). You should understand how to leverage these tools for maximum efficiency and real-time collaboration.
• Digital Agility: Whether it's automating a workflow, managing complex file architectures, or troubleshooting your own stack, you stay ahead of the curve.

Why Join the Avant Team?

You won't just be "checking boxes." You will be the visionary who ensures our medical systems are as resilient as the people we support. You'll have the autonomy to build better protocols and the clinical heart to care for those who need it most.
