Manager, Business Recruiting

1 in 4 people in the US have a treatable mental health condition, but most providers don't accept insurance, making therapy too expensive for most people. Headway’s mission is to fix this by building a new mental healthcare system everyone can access. We started by solving the biggest barrier to care: insurance. The admin work - credentialing, claims, payment reconciliation - is a nightmare. We've automated that.

But we're going further. Over 90,000 providers across all 50 states run their practice on our software, serving over 2.6 million patients. We are building the best tools for therapists to run their entire practice, reimagining the experience of finding a therapist, and investing in the platform foundations to enable this at scale, and building much of it with AI. We aren't just a billing layer; we are becoming the platform where care actually happens.

We're a Series D company with $325M+ in funding (a16z, Accel, Spark Capital, etc.), looking for exceptional people to help us achieve this mission. 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 Role

As Headway continues to scale, we're looking for a Manager, Business Recruiting to oversee the growth of our revenue functions. In this role, you’ll lead a team of 7 recruiters and own hiring across our entire revenue organization, including Provider Sales, Care Partnerships, Revenue Operations, and Enablement. The work ranges from high-volume sales hiring to targeted consultative searches for partnerships, operations, and enablement roles. As we continue to plan for record growth across these teams, you’ll be the person who turns that plan into a hiring engine that delivers.

This is a full-time leadership role focused on building a running a high-performing revenue recruiting team, serving as the strategic recruiting partner to revenue leadership and designing the plans, processes and operating rythm that lets us hire at scale while maintaining a high bar.

You Will

• Lead, develop, and retain a team of 7 recruiters supporting both high-volume and longer-cycle revenue hiring. Set clear goals, run a consistent weekly operating rhythm, and give regular, direct feedback that helps each person grow.

• Own the hiring strategy for the revenue org. Translate business and revenue targets into hiring plans, forecast team capacity, and adjust quickly as volume and priorities shift.

• Serve as the primary recruiting partner to revenue leadership. Provide regular updates, flag risks early, push back when needed, and use data to guide decisions about headcount, timing, and process.

• Manage the team against clear metrics. Use funnel and performance data to coach recruiters, spot bottlenecks, and improve hiring speed, quality, and efficiency.

• Tailor recruiting strategy to each function, from high-throughput sales pipelines to targeted searches for partnership, RevOps, and Enablement roles.

• Build for scale. Design and improve the processes, tools, and structure the team needs to support growth, including req allocation models, interview standards, and hiring manager calibration.

• Oversee day-to-day team operations, including req assignments, interview consistency, and ATS data hygiene.

• Partner with Recruiting leadership on headcount planning, team structure, and resourcing as the revenue org grows.

You’d Be a Great Fit If…

• You have 8+ years of full-cycle recruiting experience, including significant experience hiring for sales or go-to-market teams.

• You have 2+ years of experience managing recruiters, including setting goals, giving direct feedback, and managing performance. Experience leading a team through a period of rapid growth is a strong plus.

• You’re fluent in recruiting data. You understand funnel math, track metrics closely, and use them to make decisions, coach your team, and inform stakeholders.

• You can turn an ambitious hiring target into a realistic plan, and you raise concerns early when a plan is at risk.

• You build strong, trusted relationships with senior business leaders, including when you need to push back or reset expectations.

• You write and speak clearly and concisely. You keep stakeholders updated without being asked and follow through on commitments.

• You bring structure to ambiguity and build processes that produce consistent results at scale.

• You’re energized by a fast-paced environment with high expectations, changing priorities, and a lot of growth ahead.
