At Malama, moms are our north star. We meet moms where they are, in real lives not ideal patient scenarios, and we design care that works for those who are historically underserved. Our Care Navigators and doulas show up as co-conspirators, not service providers â delivering presence, confidence, and calm, and treating every mom as a capable, whole person whose instincts matter. We're outcomes-driven in the truest sense: we generate evidence from every interaction, change what isn't working when the data tells us to, and measure success by whether we're transforming lives, not just completing encounters. We step into the gap for moms, for each other, and for the communities we serve â and if that's the kind of work that gets you out of bed, then this role is for you. We are seeking a Chief of Staff to work directly with our leadership team at a pivotal moment in Malama's growth. This role is two things in equal measure: the operational backbone that keeps our organization running, and the market activation engine that gets Malama contracted, credentialed, and delivering care in new states. You will oversee the finance and HR functions that keep us compliant and well-run, and own the payer operations work that makes us scalable. If you move fluidly between vendor oversight and health plan strategy and you're passionate about equitable maternal health, then this role is for you.
