PERKS WITH US:

• Work for a well-funded disruptor in the finance, wellness, and technology space.
• A culture of continuous, inspired growth and excellence across all aspects of business and life.
• Autonomy in your work.
• This is a remote position, and we are a fully remote organization at present other than meetings in NYC and seminars and various events/networking opportunities that are done in NYC and elsewhere. However, we are in the process of establishing a physical office space in NYC to promote collaboration, cultural enhancement, and client-facing opportunities. While we recognize that there are major pros to remote work, we also recognize the value of in-person connection and are embracing a hybrid approach for those who we feel it makes the best sense for in the organization. Our goal is to create an environment that best supports our mission that will include both remote excellence and meaningful in-person engagement.
