The Roberts/Smart Centre is continually looking for the “best and the brightest” staff to join our team. We offer excellent compensation, including top wages and benefits and flexible working hours, training opportunities and the opportunity to work in a number of different programs, including both residential and non-residential components.

Specialized clinical positions require a degree at the Master’s level in a related discipline, as well as direct experience in clinical work – assessments, individual, group or family counselling, etc.
