Talkiatry is seeking a strategic, data-driven builder to lead some of our most important growth initiatives across the Mindshare Referrals program. As the Director of Strategic Initiatives, you’ll take on high-priority opportunities that expand our referral ecosystem, strengthen how providers connect patients to care, and unlock new ways for Talkiatry to partner with health systems and medical groups at scale. Your work will range from scoping new services to launching new technologies to exploring new markets.
This role blends strategy, operational execution, and the commercialization of new capabilities. You’ll work hand-in-hand with cross-functional leaders to translate opportunity into impact — shaping go-to-market strategy, designing and testing new models, and building the frameworks and processes that allow successful pilots to scale nationally. One day you may be structuring a new business line or workflow from 0 to 1; the next, you may be aligning stakeholders across clinical, product, and operations to bring that solution to life.
You’re the ideal candidate if you thrive in ambiguity, think in systems, and bring a test-and-learn mindset to solving tough problems. You’re equally comfortable going deep on the analysis, distilling insights into clear recommendations, and rolling up your sleeves to drive execution on the ground. Most importantly, you bring sound judgment, a strong motor, and an instinct for building solutions that work in the real world.
This is a high-visibility, high-leverage opportunity to shape how Talkiatry grows — designing and scaling the next generation of partnerships and capabilities that help more patients access high-quality mental health care through the providers they trust.
About Talkiatry:
Talkiatry transforms psychiatry with accessible, human, and responsible care. We’re a national mental health practice co-founded by a patient and a triple-board-certified psychiatrist to solve the problems both groups face in accessing and providing the highest quality treatment.
60% of adults in the U.S. with a diagnosable mental illness go untreated every year because care is inaccessible, while 45% of clinicians are out of network with insurers because reimbursement rates are low, and paperwork is unduly burdensome. With innovative technology and a human-centered philosophy, we provide patients with the care they need—and allow psychiatrists to focus on why they got into medicine.
