Care Manager Jobs in North Carolina: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a care manager in North Carolina?
Most care manager roles in North Carolina require either an active Registered Nurse license issued through the North Carolina Board of Nursing or a Licensed Clinical Social Worker credential issued by the North Carolina Social Work Certification and Licensure Board, depending on the employer. A bachelor's degree in nursing, social work, or a related health field is the standard baseline, and many employers expect prior clinical or coordination experience before hiring into a care management role.
Which companies hire care managers in North Carolina?
Employers hiring care managers in North Carolina right now include Coastal Horizons Center, Sunrise Senior Living, and UNC Health, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. North Carolina's large integrated health systems and Medicaid managed care organizations account for a significant share of these openings, particularly in the Charlotte and Raleigh metro areas.
Which North Carolina cities have the most care manager jobs?
Charlotte, Raleigh, and Greensboro have the most care manager openings in North Carolina. Charlotte leads because of the scale of Atrium Health and several large Medicaid managed care plans headquartered there, while Raleigh reflects UNC Health and a growing population of insured residents, and Greensboro draws volume from Cone Health and the region's community health network.
Are there remote care manager jobs in North Carolina?
Yes, and more than most clinical roles, because care management is largely telephonic and documentation-based rather than hands-on. About 50% of care manager openings tied to North Carolina are remote or hybrid as of August 2026, reflecting how widely health plans and managed care organizations have adopted virtual care models. Telephonic case management and utilization review positions are the most consistently remote.
How can I get hired as a care manager in North Carolina with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is moving from a direct clinical role, such as medical-surgical nursing or a social work case aide position, into a care coordinator title, which several North Carolina employers treat as a formal stepping stone. Atrium Health and UNC Health both post care coordinator and transition of care roles that do not require prior case management experience. Earning a Certified Case Manager credential while in an entry-level coordination role accelerates advancement and makes candidates noticeably more competitive in the North Carolina market.
