Growth & Partnerships Manager
About Lushi
At Lushi, we believe everyone deserves the opportunity to build a family when the time is right for them. As the first patient-focused provider of fertility injections, we are dedicated to improving success rates while minimizing the risk of human error. Our mission is to transform the fertility experience by offering comprehensive support—from educational resources on injection procedures and mental health services to 24/7 access to an AI-powered medical doctor and at-home nurse scheduling for injection assistance.

This role focuses on building meaningful connections with key stakeholders—including fertility clinics, employers, and insurance providers—to drive growth and create collaborative opportunities that align with Lushi’s mission.
The ideal candidate is a relationship-driven professional who thrives on creating value through partnerships. You are a strategic thinker, a skilled communicator, and a self-starter who excels in building trust and fostering long-term collaborations.
