Headway’s mission is a big one – to build a new mental health care system everyone can access. We’ve built technology that helps people find great therapists with the first software-enabled national network of providers accepting insurance. 

1 in 4 people in the US have a treatable mental health condition, but the majority of providers don’t accept insurance, making therapy too expensive for most people. Headway is building a new mental healthcare system that everyone can access by making it easy for therapists to accept insurance and scale their practice. 

Headway was founded in 2019. Since then, we’ve grown into a diverse, national network of over 60,000 mental healthcare providers across all 50 states who run their practice on our software and have served over 1 million patients. We’re a Series D company with over $325m in funding from a16z (Andreessen Horowitz), Accel, GV (formerly Google Ventures), Spark Capital, Thrive Capital, Forerunner Ventures and Health Care Service Corporation.

We want your time here to be the most meaningful experience of your career. Join us, and help change mental healthcare for the better.

About the Team & Role

    • The Provider Sales team at Headway is a 200 FTE organization focused on SMB sales, with deals typically closing in 1–2 meetings at an ACV of approximately $5,000. On average, each rep closes around 20 new providers per month, with key sales motions focused on solo providers (~70%), prescribers (~15%), and group practices (~15%). The team is supported by Revenue Enablement (10 FTEs) and Project Management (3 FTEs). This role is focused on building and leading the Provider Sales organization and partnering with leadership to continue defining Headway’s go-to-market strategy. Areas outside the scope of this role include provider demand generation, Revenue Operations (which works across multiple teams), CFN collaboration, R&D/Product, Product Marketing, Business Operations, and the Clinical team. 
    • The role reports to Headway’s Chief Revenue Officer, who oversees the Revenue team (including Revenue Marketing, Sales, and CS), a total of roughly 300 FTEs within Headway’s 900-person organization.
