Is Navi really free?
Yes, 100% free! We're here to help you navigate the mental health system—no hidden costs, no catches. We make it easier for you to find care, and our partners pay us when we make a successful match.
As a Care Navigator, you'll guide families to life-changing support — fast, empathetic, and effective.
At Navi, you're the beating heart of our mission. Our Care Navigators are the reason people get connected to life-changing care — fast. You'll be at the center of the action, empowered to solve real problems for real families every day, and deeply valued by both those you help and the rest of the Navi team. This isn't your standard care coordinator job. As Navi grows, there will be opportunities for your role and compensation to grow too.
Role Goal
100% of people you talk to that are looking for care should have a scheduled appointment within the next 7 days.
As a Care Navigator, you'll be the calm in the storm — triaging needs, mapping pathways to care, and sticking with individuals and families until the hand-off is complete. You'll blend empathetic support with operational wizardry, helping us scale a service that can literally save lives.
We're looking for someone who can provide coverage for some hours between 8 a.m. and 8 p.m. ET, and ideally can take some Saturday and Sunday shifts. Exact working times will be mutually agreed upon based on availability and need.
Conduct warm phone intakes to capture clinical and social details and determine next steps.
Use Navi's database and your own sleuthing skills to surface the best-fit providers (think age, specialty, insurance, language, cultural competence).
Book the first appointment directly, or provide a warm handoff to our partners to schedule.
Follow up at key milestones; track outcomes and patient-reported experience scores.
Keep meticulous notes in our CRM; tag data for insights, and develop formulas to help automate.
Navi isn't for everyone, but if this speaks to you, you'll do your best work here.
