At Togetherwork, we set a high bar for clarity, collaboration, and execution.

This role ensures coaching is high quality, consistent, and closely tied to the member outcomes and retention goals that drive DSOA's value.

Working alongside the Curriculum Designer, who owns the educational content members learn, the Coaching Manager owns the people and experience that bring that content to life. Together they ensure DSOA members receive a coaching experience that is expert, supportive, and worth renewing for. Success in this role requires strong people leadership, a sharp eye for coaching quality, and close partnership with the Program Lead, Member Success, and Marketing.
