About Absolute Therapy Services

Absolute Therapy Services (ATS) is a locally owned, multi-site contract therapy company serving seniors across assisted living communities on Chicago's North Shore. We provide physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, and Chronic Care Management — all under one roof, all with heart. Unlike the big national chains, we lead with relationships, clinical excellence, and a genuine commitment to the communities we serve.

We're growing, and we're looking for a driven Business Development & Partnerships Manager to help us expand our reach with physician practices, assisted living facilities, and referral networks across the greater Chicagoland area.

What you'll own

• Build and nurture relationships with primary care physicians, geriatricians, discharge planners, and assisted living administrators
• Represent ATS in the community — attending care conferences, physician office visits, and facility events
• Identify and close new account partnerships with assisted living facilities and senior care communities
• Grow our Chronic Care Management (CCM) partnerships with physician practices
• Track referral activity and pipeline in a CRM, reporting weekly to the CEO
• Collaborate with the clinical team to communicate ATS's specialty programs (LSVT BIG & LOUD, vestibular rehab, Parkinson's management, wound care and more)
• Develop and deliver outreach materials — facility newsletters, physician one-pagers, and presentations

What we're looking for

• 2+ years in healthcare business development, community liaison, or account management (home health, hospice , physical occupational and speech therapy, DME, or pharma background a plus)
• Proven track record building referral relationships in a healthcare setting
• Existing relationships with physicians, discharge planners, or ALF leadership on Chicago and North Shore is a major plus
• Self-starter who can work independently and report results clearly
• Strong communicator — warm, professional, and credible in both clinical and administrative settings
• Familiarity with Medicare and senior care services preferred
• CRM experience (HubSpot, Salesforce, or similar)

What we offer

• Competitive base salary + performance bonus tied to referral and account growth
• Health benefits, PTO, and mileage reimbursement
• Flexibility and autonomy — this is not a call center role, it's a relationship role
• A chance to grow with a values-driven, founder-led company that's expanding fast
• Direct access to and mentorship from the CEO

Why ATS?

We're not a staffing agency. We're not a franchise. We are a locally owned therapy company built by a physical therapist who still cares deeply about every patient, every clinician, and every partner. When you represent ATS, you're representing something real — and people can feel that difference.
