Job Description
OUR MISSION
Imagine building a better healthcare journey for patients with cancer, where individuals and their loved ones feel seen, supported, and heard by their care team – both in and out of the clinic. Where fast access to high-quality care is the norm, not the exception. Where patients have access to a care navigator to guide them through their diagnosis and trusted support all along the way.
At Thyme Care, we share a passion for transforming the cancer care experience – not just for patients but also for their caregivers and loved ones, as well as those delivering and paying for their care. Today, Thyme Care is known predominantly as a cancer care navigation company enabling value-based cancer care; in the next few years, we will become a nationally recognized technology-driven and provider-centric care delivery model, reshaping the landscape of cancer care access, delivery, and experience. Our commitment runs deep—we're not satisfied with the status quo but determined to redefine it.
To make this happen, we’re building a diverse team of problem solvers and critical thinkers to drive innovation and shape the future of healthcare. If you share our vision and want to be part of something truly meaningful, we want to hear from you. Together, we can revolutionize cancer care and make a difference that lasts a lifetime.
WHAT YOU’LL DO
As an Administrative Assistant, you will be handling inbound & outbound calls, text messages, secure emails, and faxes from members and providers and connecting them to their Care Team. Additionally, you will provide administrative support by generating member reports, and data entry. This role reports into our Team Lead and is a remote role, eligible for individuals throughout the United States. Our headquarters are based in Nashville and if you live within the region and it is preferred, you may work from the Nashville office. Otherwise, this role can be performed remotely. To be successful in this role, you should have a year or more of telephonic support experience in a healthcare or customer service role with a drive to handle member interactions with empathy and patience.
WHAT YOU’VE DONE
We are hiring for a July start date. If selected, you’ll be part of a cohort-based onboarding process beginning in July.
After your first three months, you will:
- Have completed training and are up to speed on Thyme Care tools, processes, and expectations
- Be comfortable with and correctly follow Care Team policies and procedures, escalation pathways, communications best practices, and documentation standards.
- Generate daily member reports and assist with day-to-day functions to help prepare interdisciplinary care team meetings, such as case conferences
- Provide inbound telephonic, text, fax, and email support for our members
- Be able to identify and triage a member's needs to connect them with our Care Teams for clinical support and care coordination
- Send weekly surveys to our members
- Schedule patient and provider calls and case conferences, as needed
- Contribute to special projects or data entry, including the growth of our virtual medical practice and stop-gap process execution
WHAT LEADS TO SUCCESS
- People-first. Thyme Care’s mission and members matter to you, deeply.
- Organized. You bring structure to chaos. You’re skilled in juggling multiple tasks and working under pressure without sacrificing organization in your communications and documentation.
- Effective listener and communicator. You are winsome and articulate, but you always start with listening and you hear what may not be voiced, because you listen so intently to others. You build rapport and great working relationships with members and colleagues.
- Comfort with ambiguity. Start-ups are fast-paced environments, and you understand that rapid changes to the business, strategy, organization, and priorities are par for the course.
- A desire to learn how to use new technologies. We are a technology company focused on interacting with folks during the season where they need it most. Experience with video chatting, Google Suite, Slack, electronic health records or comfort learning new technology is important.
- Identify priorities and take action. You know how to identify and prioritize a member's needs, and do what it takes to ensure that urgent and important needs are addressed immediately.
- Culture carrier. You’re curious, resilient, have a growth mindset, and are committed to fostering a positive environment.
OUR VALUES
At Thyme Care, our core values guide us in everything we do: Act with our members in mind, Move with purpose, and Seek diverse perspectives. They anchor our business decisions, including how we grow, the products we make, and the paths we choose—or don’t choose.
This is a non-exempt, full time position. The pay rate for this role is $19.23/hour. To perform this role you must be located within the lower 48 United States due to contractual limitations with accessing PHIs. We offer a choice of great medical, dental, and vision insurance plans as well as a generous vacation policy for full-time employees, so you can prioritize the most important parts of your life.
We recognize a history of inequality in healthcare. We’re here to challenge the status quo and create a culture of inclusion through the care we give and the company we build. We embrace and celebrate a diversity of perspectives in reflection of our members and the members we serve. We are an equal-opportunity employer.

Verify Employer Thoroughly
Research the company's identity thoroughly before applying. Check for a professional website with contacts, active social media, and LinkedIn profiles. Verify details across platforms and look for reviews on Glassdoor or Trustpilot to confirm legitimacy.
Never Pay to Get a Job
Legitimate employers never require payment for applications, training, background checks, or equipment. Always reject upfront payment requests or demands for bank details, even if they claim it's for purchasing necessary work gear on your behalf.
Safeguard Your Personal Information
Protect sensitive data like SSN, bank details, or ID copies. Share this only after accepting a formal, written job offer. Ensure it's submitted via a secure company system or portal, never through insecure channels like standard email attachments.
Scrutinize Communication & Interviews
Watch for communication red flags: poor grammar, generic emails (@gmail), vague details, or undue pressure. Be highly suspicious of interviews held only via text or chat apps; legitimate companies typically use video or phone calls.
Beware of Unrealistic Offers
If an offer's salary or benefits seem unrealistically high for the work involved, be cautious. Research standard pay for similar roles. Offers that appear 'too good to be true' are often scams designed to lure you into providing information or payment.
Insist on a Formal Contract
Always secure and review a formal, written job offer or employment contract before starting work or sharing final personal details. Ensure it clearly defines your role, compensation, key terms, and conditions to avoid misunderstandings or scams.
