Health is the most important thing in life, and the American healthcare system is completely broken - poor outcomes, high cost, bad patient experience. We're building a new system from the ground up.
Our mission is to improve people’s health by making it easy to live a healthy lifestyle.
Nourish is the country\u2019s largest dietitian-led metabolic health clinic. We’re an AI-native digital health system matching patients with 10,000+ Registered Dietitians, physicians, medications, lab testing, and AI agents to deliver insurance-covered care across all 50 states. Founded four years ago, we\u2019ve completed millions of appointments, tripled year-over-year, and partnered with health plans covering 200M+ Americans across 250+ health systems.
This is not a job for everyone. We hold an extremely high bar because we believe talent density is our biggest competitive advantage. We\u2019re looking for people who actively choose hard, ambiguous problems, who run toward unglamorous work, give and receive candid feedback, and bring relentless resilience without the ego. Our work is important, but we are not self-important. We do this because we\u2019re solving one of the hardest problems in the world, and the problem matters. If that\u2019s you, we disproportionately reward it.
About the Role
As Director, Company Strategy & Operations, you\u2019ll own the systems that translate company strategy into execution. This role sits at the center of how Nourish operates. You\u2019ll own the company\u2019s operating system — from OKRs to executive operating cadence, business reviews, board meetings, and company communications — while leading a centralized S\&O team deployed against the company\u2019s highest-impact priorities.
The scope of this role is intentionally broad and dynamic. As a generalist operator, you\u2019ll work across the business to identify and solve the company\u2019s highest-priority challenges, which will evolve based on business needs. Success in this role requires the ability to quickly build context, prioritize effectively, and bring structure and execution to ambiguous problems.
You\u2019ll report to the Head of Corporate Strategy and partner closely with the CEO and executive team. This is a true player-coach role: you\u2019ll personally lead many of the company\u2019s highest-priority initiatives while building and developing a team of exceptional generalist operators capable of solving problems across every part of the business.
This role is full-time and open to NYC-based candidates only (expectation to work in-person 3-4 days per week, with some remote flexibility). Our office is located in Gramercy.

- Partner with the executive team on company-level decisions: In partnership with Strategic Finance, support board materials, strategic planning, fundraising, capital allocation, resource prioritization, and other critical decisions that shape the direction and growth of the business.
- Strengthen and scale the Corporate Strategy team: Help develop the team\u2019s capabilities, operating model, and ways of working to maximize leverage across the business and ensure Corporate Strategy continues to be a high-impact partner to company leaders.
