Technical Recruiter Lead at Mental Health Startup

Full-time

At Grow, we believe America’s mental healthcare system is broken. Most mental health providers won’t accept insurance because of the significant administrative burden. Meanwhile, patients struggle to find quality care that is both affordable and convenient. We partner with mental health providers to build and grow their own in-network private practices, thereby improving access to quality care. We're a team of entrepreneurs, builders, and go-getters who will not settle for the status quo. Our founding team comes from Harvard Medical School, Google, Stripe, and Blackstone, and we’re excited to expand the team in our hyper growth stage as we expand accessibility throughout the country.

We are looking for an entrepreneurial Technical Recruiter to build and lead our recruiting pipeline from scratch. You’ll create and manage our full cycle recruitment, including sourcing, screening, interviewing, and closing candidates.
