About Us

Zócalo Health is a tech-enabled, community-oriented primary care organization serving people who have historically been underserved by the one-size-fits-all healthcare system. We partner with health plans, providers, and community organizations to deliver culturally competent primary care, behavioral health, and social care.

Our model is built for populations with high medical and social complexity, where fragmented care drives poor outcomes and unnecessary cost. We combine local, community-based teams with virtual care and modern technology to deliver coordinated, whole-person care where members live and receive support.

Founded in 2021, Zócalo Health is backed by leading healthcare and mission-aligned investors and is scaling rapidly across states and populations. We are building a durable care platform designed to perform in constrained healthcare environments and to lead the shift toward accountable, value-based care.

Role Description

The Recruiting Coordinator will join Zócalo Health at a critical time in the history of our company and of primary care. The opportunity for impact is large and growing, and Zócalo Health will lead the transition from fee-for-service to value-based care for the growing Latino community in the U.S.

We are looking for an organized, detail-oriented Recruiting Coordinator to support our hiring process from behind the scenes. This is an entry-level, hourly position ideal for someone interested in human resources, recruiting, or people operations.

As an integral member of the Zócalo Health founding team, you will play a key role in keeping our applicant tracking system accurate and up to date, supporting resume review, ensuring interview feedback is submitted on time, and assisting with other related recruiting and people operations tasks
