Wellbeing Specialist
At Wellist, we support people through life’s most complex moments—whether they’re recovering from surgery, managing a chronic illness, or caring for a loved one. Every interaction matters. As a Wellbeing Specialist, you’ll be the direct connection between users and the support they need—making life easier for patients, employees, and families when it matters most.
This is a highly visible, hands-on role shaping the experience of every user we serve. You’ll be on the phones, writing emails, and going above and beyond to delight each person you interact with. From finding a dog walker for someone post-knee surgery to connecting a caregiver with a local support group, you’ll make sure every user has the resources, compassion, and guidance they need.
Please note: This is a full-time, onsite role in our Boston (Copley Square) office. Our Support Center is open from 9am–8pm ET, so shift flexibility within that timeframe is required.
