About the role

When a family contacts Home Instead, it's often because something has changed. They might need assistance after a fall, receive a difficult diagnosis, or require more support than they can provide alone. As an Intake Coordinator, you'll be the first point of contact for these families.

Responsibilities

  • Answer incoming calls and online inquiries from prospective clients and their families
  • Respond quickly to new inquiries and follow up consistently until a family is ready to move forward
  • Listen carefully to each family's situation and document important details accurately
  • Schedule in-home care consultations and coordinate with the Client Care team
  • Maintain detailed notes and activities in Salesforce (or other CRM systems) to ensure every family receives timely follow-up
  • Track outstanding leads and prioritize daily follow-up activities
  • Communicate with empathy, professionalism, and confidence during every interaction
  • Work closely with the office team to provide a smooth experience from the first phone call through the start of care

Requirements

  • Genuinely enjoy helping people and can build rapport quickly over the phone
  • Stay calm and compassionate when speaking with families who may be overwhelmed or emotional
  • Be organized and dependable, not letting details slip through the cracks
  • Learn new technology quickly and be comfortable working in multiple software systems throughout the day
  • Be self-motivated and manage your workload without needing constant direction
  • Take pride in following through and providing an excellent experience for every family

Qualifications

  • You have experience in home care, healthcare, senior services, hospitality, or customer service
  • You have experience with Salesforce or another CRM platform (but we're willing to train the right person)

Skills

  • Great communication skills
  • Strong organizational abilities
  • Compassion and empathy

Benefits

  • Monday-Friday schedule
  • Competitive pay with performance-based bonus opportunities
  • Health benefits
  • Paid time off
  • 401(k)
