Who Thrives Here
You care—about people, about purpose, about doing work that truly matters.
You’re the kind of person who sees a broken system and asks, “How can I fix this?” Challenges don’t intimidate you—they energize you. You move quickly, but with intention. You don’t just get things done—you get the right things done.
At Vitable, we thrive on both autonomy and collaboration. You’ll have the space to own your work, make smart decisions, and lead with initiative—while knowing when to pull others in, ask questions, and build together as a team.
You’ll fit right in if you’re:
- Mission-driven and motivated by impact
- Someone who gets sh*t done (and does it well)
- Curious, thoughtful, and clear on your “why”
- A self-starter who figures things out
- Empathetic, honest, and genuinely cares about others
- Collaborative, but confident working independently
- Hungry for change—and ready to help make it happen
We care deeply about the people we serve, and we care just as much about our team. We support each other, show up with heart, and find joy in the work we do.
No egos. No jerks. Just good humans doing great work.
Inclusion at Vitable
Vitable is an equal opportunity employer. We celebrate diverse backgrounds, perspectives, and experiences—and we’re committed to building a team that reflects the people we serve.
If you’re excited about this role but your background doesn’t match every requirement, we still encourage you to apply. We care more about potential and passion than checking every box.
