RECRUITING LEAD
ABOUT DUET
Duet is proving that nurse-practitioner-led care isn't just more accessible, it's better. We help NPs build and scale independent practices in communities too often overlooked by the health system: rural towns, immigrant populations, LGBTQ+ patients, and more. Backed by AI-driven tools that give independent NPs the backing of a much bigger system, our network of 100+ practices covering 400,000 annual visits has driven a 30% increase in preventative visits and a 35% drop in hospitalizations, the clearest sign yet that localized NP-led care means better outcomes.
We're a well-funded, early-stage company led by seasoned entrepreneurs and nurse practitioners, and backed by investors including Lerer Hippeau and Kairos.
WHY DUET, WHY NOW
Independent primary care is disappearing, swallowed by hospital systems and private equity roll-ups, often pulling out of the communities that need it most. But 31 states now support autonomous NP practice, and the results back up what we've long believed. We built the first value-based care contracts for NPs with major payors, taking on real financial risk for outcomes. In our anchor market in New Hampshire, our network outperformed the state on total cost of care by 19%, proof that a solo NP in an underserved area can outperform a system ten times their size and get rewarded for it.
About the Role
We’re hiring Duet’s first full-time recruiter. This is a foundational role at a company growing fast: you’ll build and run the systems that bring great people in and set them up to succeed, and you’ll have real ownership over how our recruiting function takes shape.
You’ll report directly to the CEO and work side by side with the COO, Head of Strategy, and other senior leaders. You’ll have a seat at the table and a direct line to the people making the biggest decisions about where Duet is headed. You’ll own end-to-end recruiting across every function and support a handful of core people operations tasks as we scale. This is a hands-on role for someone who wants to do real work, not manage a team that does it (at least not yet).
What Makes This Role Different
- You’re the first. There’s no playbook to inherit and no legacy process to untangle. You’ll decide how we source, interview, and close, and you’ll build it right from the start.
- You own how the team scales. As Duet grows, you’ll decide when and how to expand the recruiting team, including whether to add recruiters, coordinators, or external partners, and what the structure looks like.
- You own talent and employer branding. You’ll define how Duet shows up to candidates and the broader market, from our careers presence and messaging to the stories we tell about our culture and mission.
- You’ll be visible. You’ll represent Duet at conferences, industry events, and recruiting communities, building relationships that give us a long-term talent advantage.
- You’ll have senior access. Direct collaboration with the CEO and executive team means your work is seen, valued, and shapes company strategy.
