Role Overview 

We are hiring a Strategic Partnerships & Business Development Associate to fuel growth across corporate partnerships, KAP/therapist networks, and influencer/creator collaborations. This is an in‑office role in Hollywood for someone who loves outreach, building relationships, and turning conversations into structured, repeatable partnership programs.

• Corporate and employer groups 
• KAP (Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy) providers and therapists 
• Clinics, wellness practices, and mental health organizations 
• Influencers, creators, and thought leaders in health, wellness, and mental health 
• Support the build-out of scalable partnership programs and playbooks (email sequences, call scripts, pitch materials, one-pagers). 
• Manage outbound pipelines: research targets, build lists, execute outreach, and follow up consistently across email, phone, LinkedIn, and social. 
• Schedule, prepare for, and occasionally join partner meetings; capture notes, next steps, and action items. 
• Help negotiate and operationalize partnership agreements in coordination with leadership, marketing, and clinical operations. 
• Track KPIs and performance metrics (leads, meetings, conversions, partner revenue) and maintain clean, accurate records in CRM and tracking tools.

• Represent Better U and Evernow with professionalism, warmth, and a mission-first mindset in all external interactions.

• Strong communication skills (written and verbal) with the ability to build trust quickly and tailor your message to different audiences. 
• Comfortable with high-volume outbound activity and structured follow-up; you enjoy the hunt and the process, not just the close. 
• Highly organized, detail-oriented, and reliable in maintaining pipelines, calendars, and documentation. 
• Self-starter who thrives in a fast-paced, startup-style environment and is comfortable iterating and learning quickly. 
• Genuine passion for mental health, innovative care models, and expanding access to breakthrough treatments. 

What We Offer
