Chief of Staff to the CEO 

SOL Mental Health 

At SOL Mental Health, we're not just building another clinical practice – we're redefining what’s possible in mental healthcare, and that starts with exceptional people like you. As an early-phase organization with ambitious goals, we offer something rare: the chance to truly own your function and make a lasting impact on an industry that desperately needs innovation.  

Your Contributions Matter  

We understand that exceptional mental healthcare requires more than just talented clinicians. It demands a foundation of operational excellence, innovative thinking, and robust support systems—areas where your expertise becomes invaluable.  

At SOL, you'll find:  

  • True ownership opportunities in a growing organization where your ideas can become organizational standards  
  • Direct access to passionate executive leadership committed to building both an exceptional service and an exceptional workplace  
  • Career development pathways that evolve as we grow, with opportunities emerging faster than in established organizations  
  • Cross-functional collaboration that exposes you to multiple aspects of healthcare innovation and practice management  

The Opportunity 

We are building a different kind of mental health care organization. One that combines clinical excellence, operational rigor, and a deeply human approach to care. As we scale, the questions we face are increasingly complex and the opportunity to create meaningful impact continues to grow. 

We are seeking a Chief of Staff to the CEO to help answer key questions and turn the answers into action. 

The Chief of Staff is a highly analytical, structured problem solver who is ready to move from advising to owning. You will be motivated by a drive to turn ambiguity into clarity, whether through highly analytical explorations of strategic questions or by building net new processes, systems or solutions in the business. You are someone who moves with urgency, encouraged by a supportive team culture grounded in high expectations and a conviction to build something that matters. 

Role Description 

You will operate as a close partner to the CEO and a trusted collaborator to the leadership team. Involved in SOL’s most important decisions, you will help identify where we should invest, operationalize key initiatives, and evaluate performance vs. targeted ROI. 

This role sits at the intersection of strategy, finance, and operations, with direct exposure to company leadership, board-level discussions, and the core drivers of growth and clinical impact. 

Drive Strategic Insight and Prioritization 

  • Frame and analyze the most critical strategic questions facing the business, alongside the CEO, CFO, and broader executive team 
  • Partner with the CEO, CFO, and leadership team to evaluate opportunities for growth and impact 
  • Build structured, data-driven analyses and recommendations to inform decision-making 

Implement Key Operational Initiatives 

  • Translate strategic priorities into clear, actionable plans 
  • Own launch and initial operationalization of specific initiatives (e.g., new service lines, new payor types) and ensure seamless handoff to market operations 
  • Drive accountability through defined success metrics and ROI targets accompanied by measurement of performance vs. Expectations 
  • Ensure initiatives are underpinned by repeatable workflows that deliver lasting operational impact 

Create Structure in Ambiguity 

  • Bring clarity and organization to complex, evolving problems 
  • Build frameworks, processes, and tools that enable better and faster decision-making 
  • Operate effectively in a fast-paced, agile environment where priorities may shift 

Extend the CEO 

  • Own key leadership meetings with the CEO, including agenda setting, facilitation, and follow-through 
  • Partner with CEO and leadership team to prepare board materials  
  • Communicate effectively at all levels, from frontline clinicians to executive leadership and the board 

Who You Are 

  • 3 to 7 years of experience in a high-performance environment, ideally at a top-tier management consulting, venture capital  or private equity firm 
  • Bachelor’s Degree Required; MBA preferred 
  • Exceptional analytical skills with a desire to measure everything that moves 
  • Strong business judgment with the ability to evaluate tradeoffs across growth, clinical quality, and operations 
  • Excellent communicator, capable of engaging audiences from frontline team members to board directors 
  • Highly collaborative, with the ability to influence without authority 
  • Comfortable operating in ambiguity and building structure where it does not yet exist 
  • Bias toward action with a track record of driving work to completion 

What Sets You Apart 

  • You actively seek out opportunities to create value, not just respond to assigned problems 
  • You combine strategic thinking with a willingness to dive into execution 
  • You move quickly, but thoughtfully 
  • You are energized by working in a scaling, evolving organization 
  • You are motivated by the opportunity to improve access to high-quality mental health care 

 

Compensation 

Total cash compensation $165-230k, including competitive base and bonus and equity.

Race & Ethnicity Definitions

If you believe you belong to any of the categories of protected veterans listed below, please indicate by making the appropriate selection. As a government contractor subject to the Vietnam Era Veterans Readjustment Assistance Act (VEVRAA), we request this information in order to measure the effectiveness of the outreach and positive recruitment efforts we undertake pursuant to VEVRAA. Classification of protected categories is as follows:

A "disabled veteran" is one of the following: a veteran of the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service who is entitled to compensation (or who but for the receipt of military retired pay would be entitled to compensation) under laws administered by the Secretary of Veterans Affairs; or a person who was discharged or released from active duty because of a service-connected disability.

A "recently separated veteran" means any veteran during the three-year period beginning on the date of such veteran's discharge or release from active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval, or air service.

An "active duty wartime or campaign badge veteran" means a veteran who served on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service during a war, or in a campaign or expedition for which a campaign badge has been authorized under the laws administered by the Department of Defense.

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.
