Position Overview

  • Location Type: Remote
  • Employment Type: Contract
  • Company: Headway

Headway's mission is to build a new mental health care system everyone can access. We’ve built technology that helps people find great therapists with the first software-enabled national network of providers accepting insurance. 1 in 4 people in the US have a treatable mental health condition, but the majority of providers don’t accept insurance, making therapy too expensive for most people. Headway is building a new mental healthcare system that everyone can access by making it easy for therapists to accept insurance and scale their practice. Headway was founded in 2019. Since then, we’ve grown into a diverse, national network of over 45,000 mental healthcare providers across all 50 states who run their practice on our software and have served over 1 million patients. We’re a Series D company with over $325m in funding from a16z (Andreessen Horowitz), Accel, GV (formerly Google Ventures), Spark Capital, Thrive Capital, Forerunner Ventures and Health Care Service Corporation. The Talent team is hiring a Contract Technical Recruiter to help scale our exceptional Product team. Serving as a strategic advisor to hiring managers across Product and other technical orgs, you’ll develop inclusive, structured hiring practices to assemble a standout team. We’re in hyper-growth mode and you’ll be instrumental in our trajectory, supporting the mission-critical objective of identifying, engaging, assessing, and closing the best talent long-term for Headway’s continued success.
