As part of RethinkFirst, a mission-driven company at the intersection of healthcare and education, our Behavioral Health division serves thousands of organizations and professionals across the country.

We're growing fast—and we're looking for a dynamic Director of Partnerships to accelerate that growth by building and scaling meaningful, revenue-driving partner relationships.

The Role

As Director of Partnerships, you'll be both strategist and operator—equal parts relationship-builder, deal-closer, and team leader.

This is a high-visibility, high-impact role reporting directly to the VP of Sales with strong cross-functional collaboration across Product, Marketing, Customer Success, and Executive teams.

This role is ideal for someone who loves solving complex problems, thrives on autonomy, and has a proven track record of turning partnerships into growth engines. This opportunity is more than a job—it's a chance to shape the future of behavioral health through innovative partnerships and scalable systems.

If you're a strategic thinker, relationship builder, and natural problem solver, we’d love to hear from you!
