Headway is building a new mental healthcare system that everyone can access. We make it easy for people to find quality in-network mental health care by removing historic barriers faced by mental health providers, payers, and patients.

1 in 4 people in the US have a treatable mental health condition, but the vast majority do not get the care they need. The primary reason is cost: the majority of therapists do not accept insurance, meaning paying for therapy is prohibitively expensive for prospective patients. This is where we got our start – Headway has built the first software-enabled network of therapists who accept health insurance, making it easy for therapists to grow their practices, and possible for patients to find quality care they can afford.

We launched in April of 2019 and are now powering 400,000+ appointments per month. To scale our vision, we’ve raised over $100 million in funding from a16z, Thrive, Accel, and Google Ventures.

Join us, and make an impact

As Headway’s People Operations Associate, you’ll play an integral role in supporting our 400+ employees & 300+ contingent workers across the US. We’re looking for a gritty, relationship-obsessed team player to support Headway’s human hyper-growth to galvanize our progress towards our mission.

As an early member of the Employee Experience team, you’ll have direct exposure to all dimensions of People Operations in this high-visibility role, though initial focus will primarily be on the areas below. This is an exceptional opportunity for someone interested in developing their People Ops toolkit in a dynamic, high-growth and mission-driven environment.

You will:

• Manage the lifecycle of Headway’s contingent workforce (300 and growing!) - driving experience and engagement, identifying ways to improve and scale
• Build Headway’s event management infrastructure, enabling our 2024 growth while igniting connectivity across our distributed Headwegian neighborhoods
• Become a core collaborator on all employee experience efforts, beginning with Headway’s immigration cases in partnership with immigration counsel and Talent

You’d be a great fit if:

• You have a minimum of 2-years of experience working on an HR/People team at a high growth technology start-up in an operational capacity
• You have a curiosity and drive to learn the ins and outs of HR
• You can multitask and work quickly without sacrificing attention to detail
• You are resourceful and ready to help others wherever needed

We believe a team's strength is in its people, and we cannot achieve this mission without a team that reflects the diversity of this problem - across race, ethnicity, gender, sexuality, age, national origin, religion, family status, disability, military status, and experience.
