In this role, you will be the right-hand support for Founder and Owner Hillary Thing. Your goal will be to support us in achieving daily the vision of AAHS / Uprooting Lyme by coordinating and executing many behind the scenes operational tasks, as well as participate in maintaining a smooth-running health clinic. You may also at times work closely with our virtual marketing and technical team, and the Clinic Associates.
Outcomes & Measures of Success:
The Program Manager will use their organizational talents to ensure an immaculate customer experience for our patients and professional students, and proactively support our Associates and Clinic Manager. You are bringing your skills and talents to a company that strives to empower chronically ill people to rebuild their health from the ground up, and teach health professionals to build holistic Lyme specialty practices from the ground up – which makes a profound difference in their lives and far beyond.
In this role you will:

- Delight our clients/practitioner-students and exceed their expectations with above and beyond customer service and timely communication.

- Manage all aspects of Practitioner Mentorship onboarding, billing and payment processing, and resolving issues efficiently.
- Answer questions relating to our online programs with the intention of enrolling prospective clients into our Detox For Lyme online program or the Holistic Lyme Practitioner Mentorship.

Attributes for Success
We are seeking a team member who will roll up their sleeves and dive in wholeheartedly. To be successful in this role you must demonstrate that you have:
- A true desire to serve. Your role is an essential part of the experience to help our clinic patients and practitioner-students feel supported, valued and receive high value and return. You understand that service, clients and their care are our highest priority. You always want people – no matter who it is – to have the best experience. This includes anticipating their needs and bringing a healthy dose of wow-factor to your interactions with clients. We aim to put a smile on our prospects’ and clients’ faces and confidence in their hearts.
- A passion for excellence. You go above and beyond on tasks and hold yourself to a high standard of excellence in every project you take on. You are able to identify gaps and act quickly to resolve them.
- Initiative. You have a strong ability to figure things out and think creatively to solve problems independently. In a small business, we must act swiftly and address challenges head on – your ability to think quickly and generate solutions to problems that arise will be essential.
- An eye for detail. You will be THE person in the company responsible for making sure every ‘t’ is crossed and ‘i’ is dotted to ensure a seamless experience. We need someone who can work fast to deliver projects to completion, even when curveballs are thrown your way.
- Ability to prioritize and get things done. When running a small business, priorities change all the time. We need someone who is able to keep an eye on the big picture while creating order from the chaos to ensure that we deliver on time, every time. You are super productive, a powerful planner and a wizard at tracking multiple tasks simultaneously. When multiple deadlines approach, you rise to meet each and every one of them, every time.
- Fast tech learner. We use a variety of tech integrations and will ask you to get up to speed quickly to use them. Experience in Infusionsoft or Mailchimp, Quickbooks, Asana or Basecamp, and Unified Practice is favorable.
- Fabulous communication skills. You are outstanding at maintaining relationships and excel at keeping in contact and tracking your communication through to completion with people whether it be prospects, clients or team. You take personal responsibility for your actions and pride yourself on your integrity. You are kind, enthusiastic, exude warmth and find it easy to connect with people. Our greatest measure of success is client retention and you understand that the preserving and cherishing of the relationships we have with our clients (both patients and practitioners) is top priority as well as to treat every prospect as if they are already a member of our treasured community.
- It’s all hands on deck at all times. We are a very close knit team who work hard with the intention to have a lot of fun along the way. We are seeking someone to join our AAHS / Uprooting Lyme Team family who is as prolific and passionate as we are!
