The posting, in Headway's own words
archived Oct 26, 20261 in 4 people in the US have a treatable mental health condition, but most providers don't accept insurance, making therapy too expensive for most people. Headway’s mission is to fix this by building a new mental healthcare system everyone can access. We started by solving the biggest barrier to care: insurance. The admin work - credentialing, claims, payment reconciliation - is a nightmare. We've automated that. But we're going further. Over 90,000 providers across all 50 states run their practice on our software, serving over 2.6 million patients. We are building the best tools for therapists to run their entire practice, reimagining the experience of finding a therapist, and investing in the platform foundations to enable this at scale, and building much of it with AI. We aren't just a billing layer; we are becoming the platform where care actually happens. We're a Series D company with $325M+ in funding (a16z, Accel, Spark Capital, etc.), looking for exceptional people to help us achieve this mission. We want your time here to be the most meaningful experience of your career. Join us, and help change mental healthcare for the better. Headway is deploying hundreds of millions in capital across two growth engines — provider acquisition and patient acquisition. On the one hand, the two engines are economically distinct — different funnels, different metrics, different payback profiles. On the other hand, there are deeply interrelated components between the motions that (1) make the Headway marketplace work and (2) drive our ability to build a better mental healthcare system that everyone can access. We're looking for a Director of GTM Finance to drive our financial decision making for these two growth engines. You're responsible for capital deployment, evaluating our return on investment, and helping our business leaders make good growth decisions. Ultimately your work is a critical enabler to helping providers find Headway and patients find high quality care.
