About Upside: Upside is a housing-focused care partner helping people experiencing housing instability take the next step toward stability. We partner with health plans and care organizations to identify members at risk, build a clear housing plan, and drive the work forward through placement and stabilization. Upside owns the entire housing process from start to finish. Our team engages members, coordinates with local providers and community resources, manages logistics and documentation, and stays involved until the issue is resolved. Our approach is human-first and outcome-driven, measured by real results like stable housing, completed moves, safer living environments, and successful transitions. About the Opportunity: Upside is hiring a Member Service Representative to support high-need members navigating housing instability. In this role, you’ll serve as a member’s primary point of contact and a steady guide through next steps. This role is equal parts member support and operational execution. You will manage a caseload of members, run structured check-ins, identify barriers, and connect patients to the right resources. This is a fast-paced, metrics-driven role for someone who brings high empathy and high urgency. You know how to build trust, prioritize member needs, and operate efficiently so you can provide consistent support across your full caseload. You’ll use Salesforce daily to track outreach, prioritize follow-ups, and ensure a strong member experience that drives satisfaction and retention. This role reports to the SVP, Clinical Operations.
