Director, FP&A

Talkiatry•New York, NY

About The Position

As the Director of FP&A at Talkiatry, you will help build and scale the planning and performance management foundation that enables strong decision-making across the business. This role requires a high-energy, high-integrity leader who can partner closely with executive leadership and cross-functional teams to deliver clear insights, rigorous forecasts, and scalable planning processes that support Talkiatry’s rapid growth. This is a high-impact, highly visible role within the broader Finance team. You will play an integral role in establishing and maturing the FP&A pillar for the next phase of Talkiatry’s growth—strengthening the planning cadence, improving performance visibility, and elevating how we connect operational drivers to financial outcomes. About Talkiatry: Talkiatry transforms psychiatry with accessible, human, and responsible care. We’re a national mental health practice co-founded by a patient and a triple-board-certified psychiatrist to solve the problems both groups face in accessing and providing the highest quality treatment. 60% of adults in the U.S. with a diagnosable mental illness go untreated every year because care is inaccessible, while 45% of clinicians are out of network with insurers because reimbursement rates are low, and paperwork is unduly burdensome. With innovative technology and a human-centered philosophy, we provide patients with the care they need—and allow psychiatrists to focus on why they got into medicine.
