Senior Manager, Growth Strategy & Operations

Talkiatry is seeking a data-driven, strategic, and execution-oriented Senior Manager, Growth Strategy & Operations to help scale one of the company's most important growth engines: the Mindshare Referrals program. In this role, you'll serve as a strategic partner to field leadership, helping shape growth strategy, identify opportunities to accelerate performance, and build the capabilities needed to drive consistent, scalable growth.

You'll operate at the intersection of strategy, analytics, and business operations, combining analytical rigor with strong business judgment to solve complex growth challenges. You'll work closely with an Area Director to develop market strategies, identify performance drivers, and translate insights into actionable plans. Beyond your Area, you'll collaborate with leaders across Talkiatry to test new approaches, share best practices, and help shape how the broader Mindshare program evolves as it scales.

You're the ideal candidate if you enjoy solving ambiguous problems, thinking strategically, and seeing your ideas translate into measurable business results. You bring a structured, hypothesis-driven approach to problem-solving, thrive in fast-paced environments, and are equally comfortable developing a growth strategy and rolling up your sleeves to bring it to life.

This is a unique opportunity to take meaningful ownership of a high-growth business, work closely with senior leadership, and help build a best-in-class growth organization – ultimately enabling more patients to access the care they need.

About Talkiatry Talkiatry’s mission is to transform psychiatry with accessible, human, and responsible care. We are a national psychiatric practice co-founded by a patient and a triple-board-certified psychiatrist, working to solve the biggest barriers to mental healthcare: access, affordability, and clinician burnout.

Millions of patients struggle to get timely psychiatric care, and providers face shrinking resources and growing demand. With innovative technology, a care-forward approach, and system-level partnerships, Talkiatry expands access to high-quality psychiatric services—empowering providers, health systems, and communities.

• Build tools and improve operations: Leverage AI and emerging technologies to build practical tools, automate workflows, and develop scalable solutions that improve field effectiveness and operational efficiency

• Drive performance visibility: Develop reporting, analyses, and business reviews that help leadership track results and make informed decisions

• Support strategic partner engagement: Prepare performance insights and recommendations for business reviews with health system partners to identify opportunities for continued growth
