Oncology Nurse Navigator

OUR MISSION

We exist to create a more connected, compassionate, and confident experience for people with cancer and those who care for them. We make it easier to get answers, access high-quality care quickly, and feel supported throughout treatment and beyond.

Today, Thyme Care is a market-leading value-based oncology care enabler, partnering with national and regional health plans, providers, and employers to deliver better outcomes and lower costs for thousands of people across the country. Our model combines high-touch human support with powerful technology and AI to bring together everyone involved in a person’s cancer journey: caregivers, oncologists, health plans, and employers.

As a tech-native organization, we believe technology should strengthen the human connection at the center of care. Through data science, automation, and AI, we simplify complexity, improve collaboration, and help care teams focus on what matters most: supporting people through cancer.

Looking ahead, our vision is bold: to become a household name in cancer care, where every person diagnosed asks for Thyme Care by name. If you’re inspired to make cancer care more human and to help reimagine what’s possible, we’d love to meet you. Together, we can build a future where every person with cancer feels truly cared for, in every moment that matters.

Thyme Care Inc., the management company to Thyme Care Medical PLLC, is the employing entity with your duties to be performed for Thyme Care Medical PLLC, a medical practice, and its patients. As a Thyme Care Oncology Nurse Navigator, you'll be a vital clinical resource for our members and their care network, providing triage, support, and education throughout their cancer journey via phone, email, and video.

Under the guidance of our Nurse Team Lead, you'll conduct comprehensive clinical assessments, oversee member health, and facilitate end-of-life care discussions. Your main objective will be to actively engage with members, address clinical issues, and efficiently manage any escalations that arise.
