Headway’s mission is a big one – to build a new mental health care system everyone can access. We’ve built technology that helps people find great therapists with the first software-enabled national network of providers accepting insurance. 

1 in 4 people in the US have a treatable mental health condition, but the majority of providers don’t accept insurance, making therapy too expensive for most people. Headway is building a new mental healthcare system that everyone can access by making it easy for therapists to accept insurance and scale their practice. 

Headway was founded in 2019. Since then, we’ve grown into a diverse, national network of over 45,000 mental healthcare providers across all 50 states who run their practice on our software and have served over 1 million patients. We’re a Series D company with over $325m in funding from a16z (Andreessen Horowitz), Accel, GV (formerly Google Ventures), Spark Capital, Thrive Capital, Forerunner Ventures and Health Care Service Corporation.

We want your time here to be the most meaningful experience of your career. Join us, and help change mental healthcare for the better.

About the Team & Role

At Headway, our Total Rewards team plays a critical role in shaping how we attract, retain, and reward top talent. As a Compensation Manager, you’ll be at the forefront of driving Headway’s evolving compensation philosophy, ensuring that our programs are competitive, equitable, and aligned with our business goals.

You’ll partner closely with People, Finance, and Leadership teams to design, implement, and continuously improve compensation frameworks that support Headway’s growth. This role offers a unique opportunity to not just execute on compensation practices, but to influence strategy, improve processes, and make a lasting impact on how we reward our people.

You Will:

  • Develop, implement, and continuously refine Headway’s compensation philosophy, ensuring alignment with business goals and industry best practices.
  • Lead market benchmarking efforts using compensation survey data (e.g., Radford) to maintain competitive and equitable pay structures.
  • Manage compensation programs end-to-end, including new hire offers, promotions, annual compensation cycles, bonus programs, and equity refreshes.
  • Serve as the subject matter expert (SME) for compensation tools (e.g., Workday Comp, Carta), driving system improvements and data accuracy.
  • Partner with cross-functional stakeholders (HRBPs, Finance, Talent Acquisition, and business leaders) to advise on compensation decisions and strategies.
  • Identify and implement process improvements to enhance efficiency, reduce turnaround times, and support Headway’s growth at scale.
  • Ensure compliance with compensation-related laws and regulations, including pay transparency requirements, through audits and data governance initiatives.

You’d Be a Great Fit If:

  • You have strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to translate data into actionable insights and strategic recommendations.
  • You’re a process builder who thrives in environments where you can create, optimize, and scale compensation frameworks from the ground up.
  • You’re an effective collaborator and influencer, comfortable working cross-functionally with stakeholders at all levels of the organization.
  • You’re adaptable and thrive in fast-paced, high-growth environments, balancing shifting priorities with a bias for action.
  • You have a keen eye for detail and are passionate about ensuring data accuracy, compliance, and operational excellence in all aspects of compensation.
  • You’re committed to continuous improvement, always looking for ways to enhance processes, tools, and stakeholder experiences.

Compensation and Benefits:

The expected base pay range for this position is $121,720 - $179,000, based on a variety of factors including qualifications, experience, and geographic location. In addition to base salary, this role may be eligible for performance-based variable compensation and an equity grant, depending on the position and level.

We are committed to offering a comprehensive and competitive total rewards package, including robust health and wellness benefits, retirement savings, and meaningful ownership opportunities through equity. Compensation decisions are made holistically, ensuring fairness and alignment with market benchmarks while recognizing individual contributions and potential.
