Lead/Manager, Clinical Compliance

Why Charlie Health?

We are currently facing a nationwide mental health epidemic marked by rising rates of depression, anxiety, trauma, substance use disorders, and suicide. At the same time, those seeking help often encounter barriers—whether geographic, financial, or systemic—that prevent them from receiving timely and effective care. This urgent need calls for a reimagined approach to behavioral health treatment.

At Charlie Health, our mission is to connect the world to life-saving mental health treatment. Our innovative virtual programs combine curated group sessions, individual therapy, and family therapy, delivered through personalized, evidence-based treatment plans designed for sustainable healing from the comfort of home. By connecting individuals with shared experiences and fostering supportive communities, Charlie Health provides a pathway to long-term recovery, with over 90% of our clients seeing improvement in their most challenging mental health symptoms.

Every member of our team shares a deep commitment to this mission. If you’re driven to make a meaningful impact, we invite you to join us in reshaping the future of mental healthcare.

About the Role

The Lead/Manager, Clinical Compliance will oversee a multi-pronged team that is responsible for onboarding and continuous compliance of our clinical staff members. The position is ideal for someone that has experience driving measurable efficiency gains in an operationally complex environment. 

The Lead/Manager, Clinical Compliance will directly manage a team of seven individuals and be responsible for building out new processes that drive the efficient execution of initial and ongoing compliance tasks. These tasks will touch over 2,000 new hires and 1,000 existing staff members this year alone. While HR Compliance experience is strongly preferred, it is not required. We’re looking for a Lead/Manager that is excited to get “in the weeds” and optimize / automate back-office processes (e.g. fingerprints, license verifications, annual training, etc.) to create a more clinician-friendly compliance experience.

We’re a team of passionate, forward-thinking professionals eager to take on the challenge of the mental health crisis and play a formative role in providing life-saving solutions. If you’re inspired by our mission and energized by the opportunity to increase access to mental healthcare and impact millions of lives in a profound way, apply today.
