This role involves hiring, coaching, and managing a team of support specialists and managers, setting operational strategy and metrics, and fostering a customer-first culture. The ideal candidate will have 5+ years of experience building and leading support teams in fast-changing environments, with a strong ability to collaborate and deliver complex operational projects. Experience in fintech or healthtech, and AI fluency, is highly desirable. The position offers a competitive salary range of $135,000 - $175,000 USD and is fully remote.

About the role

Thatch's mission is to build a healthcare system people love, and our employers and brokers expect a support experience that's fast, personal, and trustworthy at every touchpoint. The Employer Support team works directly with customer key stakeholders – C-level executives, HR admins, operations managers, and brokers – supporting them proactively with a consultation model, and reactively to solve their most complex issues, enabling them to offer wonderful health benefits to their employees.

As the manager overseeing the Employer Support team, you will set the standard for key stakeholder support at Thatch, partnering closely with the sales and go to market organisations, alongside the entire operations team. You will lead a high performing team, managing leads and specialists who are motivated by delivering a healthcare experience people love. And equally important, you will cultivate a customer first culture, with high accountability and a scale mentality by setting team goals, and using metrics to efficiently measure and guide team performance in pursuit of those goals.

What you'll do

  • Lead and scale a rapidly growing support org, standing up new teams as the business demands
  • Hire, coach, and grow a team of support specialists
  • Bring seasoned judgment to setting operational strategy and metrics, and hold the business to clear accountability
  • Work hand-in-hand with operations and cross-functional leaders to scale the business without eroding the customer experience
  • Track and analyze how the team is performing, and report on it on a regular cadence
  • Carry our values forward – acting as a champion for Thatch's customer-centric philosophy
  • Strengthen the organization through management work: recruiting, training, drafting team policies, defining process, and other structural improvements
  • Background we're looking for

  • 5+ years building and leading support teams in fast-changing environments
  • Experience managing support managers, specialists, technical account managers, and/or premium support functions
  • A strong collaborator with a demonstrated ability to navigate complex environments and build relationships that move things forward
  • Proven ability to deliver complex operational projects spanning multiple stakeholders
  • Excellent written and verbal communication
  • Experience we’d be particularly excited about

  • Background in fintech, healthtech, or a comparable industry
  • Strong AI fluency and an AI-first instinct – you've used AI tools to make operations more efficient, lift team output, or improve how customers experience support
  • Comfortable zooming between the tactical and the strategic – as effective working alongside the team day-to-day as you are helping shape where it's headed
  • What to expect

    We interview rigorously based on integrity, talent, and drive; the trust we display in our teammates from day 1 is a reflection of the confidence we have in this process. We aim to evaluate the things you’ll be doing every day as best we can, and we move quickly. Here's what to expect:
