Role
Who you are

- You know how to coach people to perform at their best, navigate ambiguity with good judgment, and earn the trust of both your team and your partners
- You're equally comfortable coaching an individual contributor and leading executive conversations with health system partners
- A proven commercial leader with experience leading high-performing, field-based teams and develop exceptional talent
- An exceptional relationship-builder who earns trust with providers, executives, and internal partners
- A coach who enjoys helping others grow through clear expectations, meaningful feedback, and consistent accountability
- Strategic and thoughtful, with the ability to balance long-term market opportunities with day-to-day execution
- Comfortable making decisions in ambiguous environments and adapting quickly as priorities evolve
- Data-driven, using performance insights to guide decisions without losing sight of the people behind the numbers
- Highly accountable with strong operational discipline and a bias toward action
- Motivated by purpose and energized by the opportunity to expand access to high-quality mental health care
- 7-10+ years of experience leading commercial, sales, business development, or partnership teams, preferably within healthcare or healthcare-adjacent organizations
- Demonstrated success hiring, developing, and leading high-performing, quota-carrying field teams
- Experience developing regional or market growth strategies, account plans, and delivering against ambitious commercial goals
- Strong executive presence with experience building relationships and influencing senior stakeholders
- Experience partnering closely with strategy, analytics, or sales operations teams to improve commercial performance
- Bachelor's degree required
What the job involves
- Talkiatry is seeking a strategic, execution-oriented Area Director to lead our Partnerships Activation team across the Central region
- As the commercial leader for your Area, you'll build and develop a high-performing team, grow relationships with health systems and medical practices, and deliver the commercial results that drive growth across your region
- In this role, you'll lead one of Talkiatry's most important growth engines – our provider referral partnerships program – helping providers connect patients to timely, high-quality mental health care
- This role combines people leadership, commercial strategy, and executive relationship development. You'll lead a team of Provider Partnerships Managers, helping them succeed through thoughtful hiring, in-market coaching, and clear accountability
- At the same time, you'll shape how Talkiatry grows across your region by identifying new partnership opportunities, guiding where your team focuses its efforts, and working cross-functionally to turn opportunities into sustainable growth
- This is an opportunity to lead one of Talkiatry's fastest-growing regions, develop exceptional people, and play a meaningful role in expanding access to high-quality mental healthcare through trusted provider partnerships
- Build exceptional teams by hiring, onboarding, and developing high-performing Provider Partnerships Managers
- Coach and develop talent through regular field travel, in-market coaching, performance feedback, and hands-on development
- Create a high-performance culture rooted in collaboration, ownership, and continuous improvement
- Shape regional strategy by identifying market opportunities, setting commercial priorities, and guiding how your team wins across the region
- Deliver commercial results by achieving referral, growth, and regional performance goals
- Lead executive partnerships with health systems and strategic provider organizations to strengthen relationships and expand market presence
- Partner cross-functionally with teams across Partnerships, Operations, Marketing, Clinical, and Product to execute effectively
- Scale best practices by sharing learnings, developing leaders, and raising the performance of the broader Partnerships organization
Our take
Awareness of the importance of mental health is growing worldwide, with many people seeking psychiatry to improve their mental wellness and quality of life. However, psychiatrist waiting lists and a "one size fits all" approach to mental health often prevent people from receiving the support that they need.
Talkiatry provides a personalized mental health marketplace, matching users with in-house psychiatrists based on preliminary assessment answers. Whilst the company inevitably faces competition from other online psychiatry marketplaces, Talkiatry shows the potential to stand out through its personalized, flexible, and insurance-first approach.
Healthtech is growing in strength, and with various partnerships and has substantial funding to its name. Notably, it claimed an oversubscribed Series D in 2026, positioning Talkiatry for future success and innovation in the evolving healthcare landscape.
