Full-Time Anchors at Attuned

Full-Time Anchors at Attuned
Help us build a new form of human support

Attuned is building a nervous-system regulation platform for life's most intense moments.

Alongside self-regulation experiences, Attuned connects people with Anchors : trained humans who offer short, one-to-one co-regulation through presence, listening and conversation.

An Anchor is a trained human presence who supports someone through a moment of overwhelm through short co-regulation calls, spoken or silent.

We're now looking for our first full-time paid Anchor to join Attuned as we enter public beta.

The role

You will be one of the people directly holding space for Attuned users.

Calls may be silent or conversational. Your role is not to diagnose someone, provide therapy within Attuned or solve their problems. It is to offer calm, grounded human presence and help someone feel less alone while their nervous system settles.

Because we're still in public beta, you'll also play an important role in helping us learn what the Anchor experience should become.

What you'll do

• Hold short one-to-one co-regulation calls with Attuned users
• Support both spoken and muted co-regulation experiences
• Be available during agreed Anchor shifts across a flexible schedule
• Follow Attuned's Anchor protocols, safety standards and role boundaries
• Participate in Anchor training and regular check-ins
• Give clear, structured feedback on what you're observing
• Help us understand what people need from human co-regulation
• Contribute to improving the Anchor experience throughout public beta
• Work closely with the Attuned team as we develop and scale the model

Who we're looking for

A professional background in therapy, counselling, coaching, somatics or another relevant one-to-one support practice is required.

Beyond your professional background, we're looking for someone who is:

• Exceptionally calm and grounded around emotional intensity
• An excellent listener who doesn't immediately try to fix things
• Comfortable with both silence and conversation
• Warm, emotionally mature and non-judgmental
• Highly reliable and able to follow through on commitments
• Comfortable working within clear protocols and boundaries
• Able to communicate clearly and concisely
• Comfortable receiving feedback and adapting quickly
• Comfortable working in a fast-moving early-stage startup
• Deeply curious about nervous-system regulation, co-regulation and human connection

Working hours

This is a full-time role, but it is not a conventional 9-5 position.

People experience difficult moments outside normal office hours, so the Anchor model requires flexibility.

Your working week will include agreed availability windows and may include some:

• early mornings
• evenings
• occasional weekends

We will build the schedule collaboratively and responsibly. We are not looking for someone to be permanently on call, but we are looking for someone whose lifestyle allows for flexibility in when their working hours take place.

What this is not

Although we require a therapeutic, coaching or related professional background, you will not be practising therapy through Attuned .

Anchors do not diagnose, provide medical advice or conduct psychotherapy within calls.

The work is about presence before solutions .

Knowing when not to intervene is an important part of the role.

The opportunity

This is a paid, full-time position and an opportunity to help shape the Anchor model from its earliest stage.

We're currently learning:

• how spoken and muted co-regulation should work
• when people reach for another human
• what makes an exceptional Anchor
• what training and support Anchors need
• how availability should operate
• how to build a trusted global human network

If Attuned works, we ultimately imagine thousands of Anchors around the world.

You'll be one of the first people helping us understand how to build that responsibly.
