Child Care Licensing & Provider Growth Specialist — North Carolina North Carolina, USA

What you’ll do

• Recruit new child care providers — go find the people who should be doing this and bring them in.
• Motivate and coach them through licensing, from first conversation to open doors, for both centers and family child care homes.
• Teach providers how to actually run a business: enrollment, operations, compliance, and the numbers that keep the lights on.
• Translate North Carolina’s licensing rules (DCDEE) into plain steps people can act on, and keep providers compliant once they’re open.
• Build the playbooks, training, and materials that let us help the next hundred providers faster than the last.
• Partner with state agencies and community organizations to expand child care supply where it’s needed most.

Who you are

• You’re the person who can walk into a room and get someone to bet on themselves — part recruiter, part coach, part operator.
• You know how businesses actually run, you’re relentless about detail, and people trust you fast.
• You’re genuinely willing to travel and you’d rather be in the field than behind a screen.
• You have knowledge of North Carolina child care licensing — ideally from inside or alongside DCDEE.

This is how we close the child care gap in North Carolina — one provider, one business, one neighborhood at a time. Competitive compensation, full-time.
