Manager, Provider Partnerships - Escondido, CA

We are hiring a field-based Provider Partnerships Manager who thrives on building relationships in medical settings, driving growth, and helping practices connect their patients to timely psychiatric care. This role blends new business prospecting with account ownership and field engagement. You will build relationships with medical practices and health systems in your territory, educate providers and supporting staff on Talkiatry’s services, support referral success, and grow adoption over time. This is a quota-carrying, field-forward role (approximately 75% territory travel) designed for someone who loves meeting providers in person, growing partnerships, and owning market success.

You're the ideal candidate if you’re ambitious and thrive in dynamic environments. You seek opportunities to take ownership, move fast, and see the direct impact of your work. You’re driven by purpose, motivated by helping providers connect patients to the care they need, and you bring a builder’s mindset to every relationship, opportunity, and challenge. You’re a collaborative, people person who draws energy from being in the field and building relationships. Sitting behind a desk and living in spreadsheets drains you; building trust with clinicians and staff motivates you. You’re equally at home nurturing relationships and driving results. You’re competitive in the best way, motivated by growth, inspired by goals, and proud to be accountable for outcomes.

ABOUT TALKIATRY

Talkiatry is transforming mental health care by making high-quality psychiatry more accessible, human, and sustainable for both patients and clinicians. Co-founded by a patient and a triple-board-certified psychiatrist, we were built to solve one of healthcare’s most urgent challenges: millions of people struggle to access mental health care, while clinicians face growing administrative burden and burnout.

Today, Talkiatry is the largest dedicated psychiatry practice in the U.S., with 750+ psychiatrists, 250+ therapists, and more than two million patient visits delivered nationwide. At our scale, every innovation has real impact.

We’re not just growing quickly — we’re redefining how behavioral healthcare is delivered in America.
