Our team includes clinicians, technologists, operators, and problem-solvers working together to make high-quality care more accessible for families nationwide.

About The Role:

As the Senior Manager, Internal Communications, you'll make sure strategy, organizational updates, and operational changes land clearly with the people who need them. This role is built around two responsibilities: making sure clinical and operational updates are communicated clearly to frontline teams, and supporting the recurring communications that keep the broader company informed and aligned.

This role reports to the VP, People and can be based anywhere in the continental US.

What you'll do:

  • All-Company Communication 
    • Own the content strategy, agenda, and speaker prep for all-company forums, including our biweekly org-wide All Hands, quarterly OKR updates, annual company offsites, and other ad hoc forums; ensure content is clear, digestible and impactful
    • Partner with executive leadership, as well as external PR, to support any meaningful company-wide change management needs, ensuring alignment between internal and external messaging
    • Establish a framework to define an appropriate level of communication plan or intervention based on factors such as scale, complexity and sensitivity of the change

    • Manage a comprehensive communications calendar to sequence updates deliberately
    • Create resources to empower all individuals across the company to communicate in an impactful, clear way that aligns with our brand voice and expectation
  • All-Clinical Communication
    • Embed fully with the clinical team. Deeply understand them as an audience, their experiences, strategic roadmap, historical challenges, goals, etc.
    • Partner with clinical leaders and their operational dyads early in initiative planning, so communication is built into the rollout from the start; identify opportunities to improve the sequencing of initiatives and related communication to maintain a manageable cognitive load for teams
    • Manage the clinical communications calendar and develop guidelines to ensure that messages are sent to the most appropriate audience through the most impactful channel, so messaging is accessible and clear for all staff
    • Act as the editorial thought partner to our clinical and operational leaders, challenging framing, ideating on message tone, content, forum, etc., and facilitating an effective communications development process across multiple stakeholders
    • For any key communications, take the pen on drafting the messaging, pulling from ongoing context gathered through participation in key clinical forums
    • Provide reflection and feedback on existing rhythms, identifying gaps, opportunities to gather feedback, and improve the overall experience of communications for the clinical team

Who you are:

  • 5+ years of experience in internal communications, strategic operations, or executive communications, ideally in a healthcare or clinical environment
  • Clear and direct communicator, verbally and in writing, who defaults to plain language over corporate speak
  • Editorial backbone, with the confidence to challenge senior leaders and flag when a message is buried or unclear
  • Deep empathy; demonstrated understanding of how to write for a diverse audience in a fast-paced professional setting
  • Systems-thinker; able to extrapolate from a concrete task to a template, framework and philosophy
  • Organized and detail-oriented, with a track record of managing calendars and multi-channel rollouts without missing a detail

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
