Description
As a Junior Associate at Coral Care, you'll keep our team running smoothly while directly supporting the business as we scale. You'll be the person who makes things happen — organizing team events, ensuring our office is a great place to work, and helping the growth team execute on key initiatives.

About Us
Coral Care is transforming access to pediatric therapy by connecting families with trusted local clinicians who provide care in the home. We partner with speech, occupational, and physical therapists to deliver high-quality, in-person services while handling the administrative work that makes care possible — including credentialing, billing, payor contracting, and scheduling.
Our mission is to make it easier for families to get the support their children need and to create a sustainable path for clinicians to do the work they love. As part of our team, you'll play a key role in building the systems and operations that power this mission as we expand rapidly across the country.
