Role
Who you are
- You're an experienced People Business Partner with experience supporting a multi-state, fast-paced workforce that includes both exempt and non-exempt employees. You have at least 5 years of experience in an HRBP or People Partner role with strong emphasis on supporting non-exempt populations; even better if you have firsthand experience working in a frontline or customer-facing operational role, giving you a practical understanding of the day-to-day realities facing the teams you’ll support
- You know how to develop first time managers, especially those on the frontlines. You know how to meet newer leaders where they are, ask the right questions, give direct feedback with care, and build credibility quickly
- You're willing to roll up your sleeves. You enjoy being close to the day-to-day work, diving into the details, and working alongside earlier career leaders to move issues forward. You use that context to make better decisions, identify patterns, and improve how the organization operates
- You bring excellent judgment. You can balance empathy, risk, and business needs; handle sensitive information with discretion; and know when to act independently versus pull in the right partners
- You're a high-performance operator. You manage a dynamic portfolio of work, follow through reliably, and bring structure and momentum to ambiguous, complex situations
- You're a clear, adaptable communicator. You can simplify complex issues, write strong documentation, and tailor your approach for employees of differing levels and roles
- You're analytical and systems-minded. You use data and business context to identify trends and translate recurring challenges into practical, scalable solutions
- Research shows that some groups hesitate to apply unless they meet every qualification. If you’re excited about this role but don’t check every box, we encourage you to apply. At Grow, we value diverse experiences, transferable skills, and the unique strengths each person brings
What the job involves
- You'll be a trusted, highly visible partner to Supervisors and Managers across Operations – the person they turn to for practical guidance, thoughtful coaching, and help to create a high bar, high car environment
- Coaching frontline leaders. You help Supervisors and Managers build confidence and capability – delivering clear feedback, setting expectations, and addressing issues early
- Navigating employee relations. You lead employee relations matters, including performance concerns, policy and leaves questions, attendance issues, and other sensitive situations, with the judgment to know when and how to escalate
- Driving performance and accountability. You guide leaders through goal setting, performance improvement, recognition, and fair decision-making, helping teams maintain a high bar with high care
- Creating clarity and consistency. You help leaders apply People policies and practices consistently across an exempt and non-exempt workforce, partnering closely with Talent Activation, People Operations, and Legal when needed
- Staying close to the business. You build strong relationships across Operations, understand the realities of the day-to-day work, and use themes from engagement signals, and leader conversations to surface risks and opportunities
- Run evergreen programs and special projects that continuously improve how we approach performance, feedback, learning, and engagement across Operations
- Support annual and quarterly planning and roadmapping for Operations people priorities
- Use quantitative and qualitative data to spot trends, surface insights, and proactively shape people decisions before issues arise
Our take
Mental health issues affect about 20% of Americans, so there’s an immense need for qualified mental healthcare in the US. However the vast majority of therapists don’t accept insurance due to the prohibitive administrative workload involved. This leaves therapy out of reach for many Americans. So it’s no surprise that the Grow Therapy platform has seen skyrocketing popularity since it was founded in 2020.
Grow Therapy helps therapists open their own in-network practices, providing the technology, support, and resources to tackle the extra operational workload that would allow them to take insurance. It’s live across a number of states, and works in partnership with all the major insurance payers including Humana, Aetna and Cigna.
The company is competing with larger rivals like Alma and Quartet Health, but this should be a big enough market for several major participants. Grow has secured good funding that supported the launch of its enhanced measurement-informed care system, which will help improve the care experience for clients and providers and make value-based behavioral care accessible for more patients.
