The Fellowship Enrollment Coordinator is the New York Zen Center's lead nurture specialist. They are the person who turns physician interest into enrolled Contemplative Medicine Fellows.

About the Contemplative Medicine Fellowship:The Fellowship is an innovative 12-month program that is changing the culture of medicine for individuals and the healthcare systems within which they practice through evidence-based contemplative practices.

Your mission: Guide 450+ physicians and advanced practice providers annually through the decision to invest $12K+ and 12 months into our Contemplative Medicine Fellowship.

This role isn't passive "relationship-building." It's systematic, empathetic, lead nurture that will involve:

Following up after information sessions
Coordinating discovery consultations
Moving applications forward
Nurturing skeptical prospects with clinician-fluent communication that is in alignment with the core values of NYZC

Understanding the prospect: These aren't casual buyers; they're physicians struggling with their position in the modern healthcare system and questioning whether to leave medicine entirely. Your follow-up can be the difference between a doctor finding the Fellowship or quitting their career. You'll earn the trust of a sophisticated, time-starved audience that's been dramatically underserved by inadequate corporate wellness initiatives.

You'll succeed by improving application rates through CRM optimization, managing/developing automated outreach sequences, and relationship-centered, persistent follow-up, all while maintaining the empathetic, patient, non-corporate approach physicians expect from NYZC.

This role requires: Lead nurture experience with long decision cycles (3-6 months), comfort with high-volume outreach where most prospects won't respond, and the ability to earn trust from skeptical, credential-conscious professionals. If you're a mission-driven communicator with the patience and systems-thinking to nurture physicians through difficult and important decisions, then this role offers measurable impact in a growing organization.
