About the role
Alchemy gives employers and institutions the talent, support, and technology they need to deliver career-connected, standards-aligned learning. As a Clinical & Field Placement Site Development Specialist, you'll grow the network of clinical sites, field agencies, preceptors, and field instructors behind our placements in nursing, nurse practitioner, physician associate, social work (MSW/BSW), counseling, and allied health programs.
Most of this job is outreach and relationship-building. You'll find organizations that can host students, open conversations with them, qualify them, and turn them into partners who take students term after term. You'll also work with our placement team to match students into the sites you develop and make sure each placement is documented correctly.
If you like cold outreach, building a network, and getting a hesitant site to say yes, this role is for you.
What you'll do
Find and open new sites (about 60% of your time)
- Research and build target lists of potential sites by geography, specialty, and population focus. Targets include hospitals, health systems, outpatient and specialty clinics, private practices, FQHCs, behavioral health and community mental health agencies, schools, child welfare and social service organizations, long-term care facilities, and nonprofits.
- Run high-volume outreach by phone, email, and LinkedIn to reach decision-makers, clinical educators, practice managers, and field education contacts.
- Recruit individual preceptors, field instructors, and task supervisors, including clinicians who have never hosted a student.
- Make the case for hosting students by answering objections about workload, liability, onboarding, and compensation.
- Hit weekly targets for outreach activity, new sites, and new preceptor or supervisor commitments.
Qualify sites and make them ready for students
- Confirm what each site can offer: student capacity, specialties or practice areas, supervisor credentials and availability, required hours, schedules, and onboarding requirements.
- Check sites against program and accreditation standards (e.g., CCNE/ACEN, ARC-PA, CSWE, CACREP).
- Collect site and supervisor documents, and coordinate affiliation agreements with university partners and the site's legal or HR contacts.
- Spot sites that can't support a placement early (for example, no qualified supervision, too few hours, contract barriers, or onboarding obstacles) and move on.
Keep sites as long-term partners
- Act as the main contact for the sites you develop, before, during, and after each placement.
- Check in with sites regularly to keep them happy, fix problems, and secure capacity for future terms.
- Grow existing partners by adding specialties, locations, and preceptors within the same organization.
- Collect feedback from sites and share what you learn with the placement and partnership teams.
Support matching and placement
- Work with Placement Advisors to match students to sites you've developed, based on program requirements, specialty, geography, and supervisor qualifications.
- Present student candidates to sites and coordinate interviews and approvals.
- Join student intake or check-in calls when a site needs extra context.
Track your pipeline and keep records accurate
- Log every outreach, response, and stage of your site pipeline in a CRM.
- Keep site, preceptor, and supervisor records accurate and audit-ready.
- Send leadership a weekly report on outreach volume, pipeline stages, new sites, open capacity, and site gaps by region and specialty.
- Protect student and partner information under FERPA and our partners' policies.
What we're looking for
Required
- Bachelor's degree
- 2+ years in a role built on outreach: site development, business development, healthcare or provider recruiting, partnership development, or clinical/field placement coordination
- Proven comfort with high-volume cold calling and email outreach, and persistence with no-responses and rejections
- Strong persuasive writing and phone skills
- A track record of hitting activity and conversion targets
- Excellent organization and follow-through across a large pipeline
- Experience working with CRM's
Nice to have (please apply even if you don't have all of these)
- Experience developing clinical rotation or field practicum sites for nursing, NP, PA, MSW, counseling, or allied health programs
- An existing network of healthcare providers, behavioral health agencies, or social service organizations
- Familiarity with preceptor and field instructor requirements and accreditation standards
- Experience negotiating or coordinating affiliation agreements
- A background in social work, nursing, healthcare recruiting, or medical sales
- Experience with Tevera, Exxat, Typhon, CastleBranch, ELC, or LinkedIn Sales Navigator
Why this role
- You'll build something measurable: every site you open becomes capacity for students for years.
- You'll develop a large professional network across healthcare and human services nationwide.
- Your outreach work directly affects whether students graduate on time.
- You'll grow with a team that is expanding placement services across disciplines.
Work environment
This is a fully remote role centered on phone, email, and video outreach. You'll need:
- A private workspace with a door, for calls and confidential conversations
- Reliable high-speed internet
- A Mac or Windows computer
Benefits (Full Time)
Health coverage, retirement plan options, paid time off and holidays, flexible hours, technology support, and a collaborative, learning-focused team.
Equal opportunity
Alchemy is an equal-opportunity employer committed to a diverse, inclusive workplace free of discrimination. We encourage applicants from all backgrounds, including career changers from healthcare recruiting, medical sales, social work, and higher education.

Tips for Your Remote Placement Specialist Job Search
Apply early to remote roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists remote placement specialist openings from across the U.S. in one place, so you can find roles that match your background and apply directly. Early applications on active remote listings get more recruiter attention before pipelines fill.
Prove your async communication before interviews
Remote placement specialist hiring managers read how you write before they hear you speak. Treat every email and application message as a sample of your on-the-job communication style, since remote placement work runs almost entirely through written updates and digital handoffs.
Highlight distributed pipeline management experience
Remote employers want placement specialists who have managed candidate pipelines without being in the same room as hiring managers. Call out the applicant tracking systems you've used, how many open roles you managed at once, and how you kept stakeholders updated from a distance.
Find remote-first firms in your target sector
Remote placement specialist openings concentrate at staffing agencies, healthcare networks, and education organizations that run distributed hiring teams. Search by sector to find employers whose entire placement function is built for remote work, not just a team that went remote temporarily.
Remote Placement Specialist Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get a remote placement specialist job?
Target companies with distributed HR teams or remote-first hiring models, since those employers expect placement specialists to work independently from day one. Remote hiring managers screen for strong written communication, the ability to manage candidate pipelines without in-person oversight, and comfort with applicant tracking systems. A demonstrated history of closing placements without being on-site gives your application a clear edge.
Which companies hire remote placement specialists?
Remote placement specialist roles are posted by The Nanny Poppins Agency, Nectar, and Mutual of Omaha and others right now, based on current remote listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. The employers hiring most consistently are remote-first staffing firms, distributed healthcare networks, and national education organizations that coordinate hiring across multiple locations.
Can you get a remote placement specialist job with no experience?
Yes, but remote entry-level roles are harder to land because employers expect you to manage workflows and communicate progress without day-to-day supervision. Your best opening is with smaller remote-first staffing firms or nonprofits that hire coordinators into placement support roles. Showing proficiency with applicant tracking systems, strong written communication samples, and any volunteer recruiting or matching work can substitute for formal experience.
Do you need a degree for remote placement specialist jobs?
Not always. Remote employers in this role weigh demonstrated placement outcomes, familiarity with sourcing and screening tools, and the ability to manage candidate relationships asynchronously. A degree in human resources, psychology, or a related field helps with some employers, but documented results from prior placement or coordination work often carry equal weight in the remote hiring process.
