Job description

About Flourish

About the Role

You will ensure consistent, high-quality patient engagement and strong fidelity to the Flourish integrated care model as the organization scales rapidly.

Cross-Functional Collaboration

Partner closely with leadership across psychiatry, therapy, family guides, operations, recruiting, and people operations
