Support Lead

Support Lead Opportunity

Stepful partners with healthcare institutions to build talent pipelines and career pathways. We are reimagining allied healthcare training with a digital-first environment for student cohorts that prepare job-ready graduates five times faster, at a fraction of the cost. Stepful graduates, primarily from underrepresented communities, go on to work at leading healthcare institutions. Stepful is backed by Y Combinator, Reach Capital and AlleyCorp and recently closed a round led by Oak HC / FT.

Stepful is seeking a Support Lead to enhance our operational efficiency as we scale from 25,000 active students to over 100,000 active students. This is a pivotal moment for our organization and an opportunity to be a force-multiplier in streamlining our communications to students across various channels.

The Support Lead will build systems, identify tooling and leverage AI solutions to standardize how we communicate with students throughout their journey with Stepful : from admissions through to job placement and everywhere in-between.

This is a hybrid role (working three days / week from our office in NYC) reporting into our Head of Student Operations.
