Job Description

Leading operational initiatives for Headway by driving cross-functional challenges in mental healthcare access. Building scalable processes while coordinating stakeholders and leveraging data tools.

Responsibilities:

  • Drive complex, cross-functional initiatives that advance pod-level objectives - identifying opportunities, addressing dependencies, and ensuring alignment across stakeholders.
  • Build and operate scalable workflows and processes (0→1) that improve efficiency, reliability, and throughput across your domain.
  • Leverage data tools to extract insights, validate assumptions, and inform decisions, synthesizing findings into clear recommendations that guide pod and organizational priorities.
  • Plan, execute, and deliver initiatives end-to-end by setting clear objectives, timelines, and success metrics – driving accountability across functions without formal authority.

Requirements:

  • 5-7 years of experience in operational roles at high-growth companies; background in consulting, finance, or business operations preferred but not required.
  • You independently deconstruct complex problems into structured, testable components - and you're comfortable working through ambiguity without waiting for full clarity.
  • You're proficient with AI & data tools (e.g., Looker, Excel, SQL, dashboards) and use them fluently to extract insights, validate assumptions, and streamline workflows.
  • You design systems with scale in mind - anticipating bottlenecks, iterating based on feedback, and codifying learnings into playbooks and standards.
  • You coordinate resources and align priorities across teams, building trust through transparency, accountability, and clear communication.
  • You take calculated risks and make decisions that advance pod objectives, anticipating downstream impacts before taking action.
  • You're motivated by the opportunity to make an impact on one of our generation's defining problems: affordable mental healthcare.

  • Equity compensation
  • Medical, Dental, and Vision coverage
  • HSA / FSA
  • 401K
  • Work-from-Home Stipend
  • Therapy Reimbursement
  • 16-week parental leave for eligible employees
