About myPlace Health

myPlace Health was founded in 2021 by mission-aligned healthcare leaders and organizations that are committed to drastically improving health outcomes, quality and experience for vulnerable older adults and frail seniors. We specialize in providing value-based, comprehensive care and coverage for older adults with significant needs so they can thrive in the homes they love and in the communities they cherish. 

 

Our mission is simple: to enable older adults to live the independent lives they deserve. We pursue this mission through our myPlace PACE (Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly) model, which provides seamless primary care, integrated health plan coverage, personalized social engagement, and customized services delivered in the participant’s preferred place.  

 

myPlace Health is building a mission-driven team that shares our passion for redefining the way older adults experience care as they “age in place” in the community. This is a unique opportunity to take on one of our country’s most challenging healthcare problems and join a fast-growing, dynamic team as we prepare to scale our mission to serve more markets. 


About This Role

Are you passionate about making a meaningful impact while advancing your career in a mission-driven environment? This role offers an exciting opportunity to join the finance team of an innovative early-stage company, where your contributions will help shape the future of our accounting and financial operations.

You’ll play a central role in critical initiatives, including budgeting and forecasting, KPI development, financial reporting, and strategic finance projects—all while contributing to a growing organization committed to redefining how older adults experience care.


This is more than a job; it’s a chance to think strategically and collaborate across all facets of healthcare delivery in a company at the forefront of integrated care. Your work will help us create innovative solutions that empower older adults to age with dignity and independence in their homes and communities.


If you’re excited about joining a mission-driven finance team in a fast-growing company where your voice and ideas truly matter, we’d love to hear from you! This role is hybrid from Los Angeles with ability to travel 10%-20% based on business need.

  • Thrives in Ambiguity: Excels in a dynamic, “zero to one” environment and embraces opportunities to “roll up your sleeves” and tackle a wide range of projects, processes, and deliverables.
  • Relevant Experience: Brings 3+ years of experience in a similar role, with a strong preference for healthcare accounting expertise.
