Director, Network Deployment

Let’s face it, a company whose mission is human transformation better have some fresh thinking about the employer/employee relationship. We do. We can’t cram it all in here, but you’ll start noticing it from the first interview. Even our candidate experience is different. And when you get an offer from us (and accept it), you get way more than a paycheck. You get a personal BetterUp Coach, a development plan, a trained and coached manager, the most amazing team you’ve ever met (yes, each with their own personal BetterUp Coach), and most importantly, work that matters. This makes for a remarkably focused and fulfilling work experience. Frankly, it’s not for everyone. But for people with fire in their belly, it’s a game-changing, career-defining, soul-lifting move. Join us and we promise you the most intense and fulfilling years of your career, doing life-changing work in a fun, inventive, soulful culture. If that sounds exciting—and the job description below feels like a fit—we really should start talking. We are a hybrid company with a focus on in-person collaboration when necessary. Employees are expected to be available to work from one of our office hubs at least two days per week, or eight days per month. Our US hub locations include: Austin, TX; New York City, NY; San Francisco, CA; and the Washington, DC metro area. If this is a role based in Europe, our Europe hub locations are London, UK and Amsterdam, NL. Please ensure you can realistically commit to this structure before applying.

The Director, Network Deployment owns that opportunity. This is a builder role: you're not inheriting a finished function, you're defining what it becomes.

If you're energized by creating the playbook, not following it, this is for you.

Coach Pool Architecture & Deployment Quality - Own the standards and methodology for building high-quality, fit-for-purpose coach deployment strategies. - Define quality standards for deployment health, including coach-member fit, activation rates, and client satisfaction; establish feedback loops that drive continuous improvement. - Work cross-functionally with Coach Quality and Coach Intelligence to ensure deployment strategies are informed by coach performance data and network insights. Network Administration Oversight - Provide leadership and direction to the team responsible for coach onboarding, offboarding, and recruiting — ensuring these workflows are accurate, timely, and low-friction for coaches and internal stakeholders. - Hold the function accountable to clear SLAs, process documentation, and scalable operating standards; escalate systemic issues to structural solutions. Team Leadership & Operational Excellence - Lead and develop a team of 3 - 4 specialists across deployment and network administration; set clear expect
