Senior Implementations Manager (Partnerships)

Virta Health is on a mission to reverse metabolic disease in one billion people. Current treatment approaches aren’t working—over half of US adults have either type 2 diabetes or prediabetes, and obesity rates are at an all-time high. Virta is changing this by helping people reverse their metabolic condition through innovations in technology, personalized nutrition, and virtual care delivery reinvented from the ground up. We have raised over $350 million from top-tier investors, and partner with the largest health plans, employers, and government organizations to help their employees and members restore their health and take back their lives. Join us on our mission to reverse metabolic disease in one billion people.

This role gives you a front-row seat to how major health plans and partners bring Virta to their members. You’ll lead launches that showcase our product, our impact, and our ability to execute with precision.

If you want to grow your career by owning work that’s highly visible and genuinely meaningful, this role delivers.
