Our National Rehabilitation Department is looking for a self-motivated individual to join their team as a Vocational Rehabilitation Specialist. Reporting to the Vocational Supervisor, National Rehabilitation Department, you will be responsible for managing a vocationally-based rehabilitation case load.
In this role, you will be responsible for helping our Plan Members return to alternate occupations at their own employer or to identify and prepare for appropriate alternate occupations with other employers.

On a typical day, you will work from the office and require very limited travel and on-site visits.
