About the role

Strategic Finance & Business Operations Lead Blossom Health exists to solve the mental health epidemic in America by partnering with psychiatrists to expand access to affordable, timely, clinically-effective mental healthcare. Our AI-native care platform is loved by hundreds of clinicians and tens of thousands of patients. We’re a Series A company with $20M+ raised from Headline, Village Global, and the founders of General Catalyst, Flatiron Health, Sword Health, Fay, Elemy, Zip, Blank Street, Assured, Bridge, Birches Health, and Enzo Health.

The Role: We’re looking for a Strategic Finance & Business Operations Lead to own the financial and analytical work behind some of Blossom’s most important business decisions and revenue drivers. This is not a generic BizOps role. You’ll spend a significant amount of your time digging into the economics of the business: understanding our revenue structure, building financial models, evaluating new opportunities, and turning complex financial and operational data into decisions. You'll also directly own key commercial aspects of the business including relationships and workflows with health insurance payors and other strategic counterparties. You’ll report directly to our Founder and work closely with leaders across the company as we scale. Why You Should Work Here: Be early in a hyper-growth startup: Join the foundational team of a rapidly scaling company and help build the financial and operational infrastructure behind our next stage of growth Work on decisions that matter: Your analysis won’t live in a deck. You’ll help answer questions that directly influence how we grow, where we invest, and how we build the business High trust and autonomy: Own meaningful work from day one, with the freedom to shape how problems are approached and solved Talent-dense team: Work alongside a top-percentile team with high standards, intellectual curiosity, and a shared ambition to build something consequential We move with speed and purpose: We value people who can move quickly, get deep into the details, and turn analysis into action

What You'll Do:

Own financial analysis and modeling across revenue, growth, unit economics, and strategic initiatives
Develop a deep understanding of Blossom’s revenue structure and identify opportunities to improve the economics of the business
Build models and analyses that inform company-level decisions around growth, investment, resource allocation, and new opportunities
Partner with the Founder and business leaders on high-priority strategic and operational projects
Translate complex financial and operational data into clear recommendations and actionable decisions
Build reporting, forecasting, and analytical processes as the company scales
Evaluate new business opportunities, partnerships, markets, and strategic initiatives from both a financial and operational perspective
Move beyond the analysis and execute on the opportunities you identify
You’ll Be a Good Fit If:
You have 2–6 years of professional experience, with a strong foundation in finance and financial analysisYou have experience in investment banking, equity research, private equity, hedge funds, or another rigorous investing/financial environment
You’re exceptionally strong in financial modeling and comfortable getting deep into revenue structures, unit economics, and business performance
You have a track record of outperforming in highly selective, demanding environments
You can take a complicated or ambiguous question, structure it quickly, and arrive at a thoughtful answer
You’re commercially minded. You care about what the numbers actually mean for the business, not just producing the analysisYou have a strong bias for action and are excited to operate beyond the traditional boundaries of a finance role
You communicate clearly and can turn detailed analysis into a compelling recommendation
You’re excited by the opportunity to work directly with a Founder and take on increasingly broad ownership as the company grows
You’re authorized to work in the United StatesYou’re excited to be in-person in New York City 5 days a week

Bonus: You’ve spent several years in investment banking or another rigorous finance environment and have since moved into strategic finance, business operations, or a similar role at a high-growth startup.

What We're Looking For:

Highly motivated, ambitious, and capable - you want to tackle large, meaningful problems and hold yourself to a high bar
Ownership mindset - you think long-term and put the business and our customers first
High velocity and high excellence - you move with urgency without sacrificing the quality of your work
Analytically rigorous - you’re comfortable going several layers deeper than the obvious answer
Commercially curious - you want to understand how and why a business works, not just report what happened
An explorer - you’re comfortable with ambiguity, autonomy, and questions that don’t have an existing playbook
Humble - you use your strengths in service of the team and understand that success is an output, not an input

Compensation & Benefits:

$120,000–$180,000 base salary
Meaningful equity ownership
Significant growth opportunities as the company scales
Beautiful, sunshine and snack-filled office in the heart of Flatiron, Manhattan
Health, dental, and vision insurance
A focus on outcomes, not hours
Team outings, offsites, and unlimited PTO

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
