Director of Product (Provider Growth)

At Headway, we’re building the largest national network of therapists who accept insurance — and making mental healthcare radically more accessible in the process. Our ability to serve patients starts with providers. As Director of Product for Provider Growth, you’ll lead the product vision, strategy, and execution for how we attract, onboard, and activate providers on Headway. 

Your mission is to grow the number of active providers on Headway by delivering a seamless, delightful onboarding and activation experience and by building high-impact growth channels. You’ll lead cross-functional teams responsible for critical surfaces across the provider funnel, including leads forms intakes, credentialing, onboarding, and referrals programs. You’ll also drive new product surfaces and big bets that tie into long-tail growth opportunities, like growing Group Practices. 

Provider growth is one of Headway’s most important levers for scaling access to affordable mental healthcare. Whether it's building a world-class referrals engine, optimizing conversion through onboarding, or laying the groundwork for future market expansion, this role is at the heart of Headway’s growth story — and critical to advancing our mission. This is a pivotal role for both Headway and our mission to make mental healthcare more accessible.
