Wellist: Employee Activation & Training Lead

Boston, MA (Hybrid; Travel Required)

 

At Wellist, we’ve spent the last decade helping people navigate life’s most challenging moments. After building a track record of impact with leading health systems, we have successfully pivoted into the employer market and we are now scaling with large, global employers.

Our platform acts as an activation layer within the HR ecosystem—embedding precision matching capabilities so employees can find the right support at the right time, and employers can maximize the value of their benefit and resource investments.

This is a pivotal moment for Wellist. We are ramping to serve one million employees and frontline activation will be critical to our success.

As our Employee Activation & Training Lead, you will play a central role in bringing Wellist to life inside organizations—training leaders, directly activating employees, and ensuring that every person experiences Wellist as a white-glove, human, and truly helpful service.

 

This role has three core mandates:

• Enable leaders to support their teams through Wellist.

• Directly activate employees so they connect to the full breadth of support their company provides.

• Make frontline insights a lever for better product, operations, and client value.

You will be a visible ambassador for Wellist with clients and employees, and a trusted voice inside the company—shaping how we scale frontline engagement.

• Hosting office hours (onsite and virtual)

• Making outbound calls to introduce the Wellist program to key employee segments

• Providing 1:1 onboarding support for employees

• Helping employees surface unmet needs and navigate to the right resources
