Job Brief:
We are seeking a motivated business development professional to support the adoption and expansion of WalkWise technology within senior care organizations large and small, including both existing and prospective customers in long-term care, skilled nursing, and PACE. Our preferred candidate is an excellent communicator with experience in creating and managing B2B relationships, with a preference given to those familiar with healthcare and elder care.
This role will be responsible for supporting sales and customer success by generating leads, cold and warm outreach, procuring meetings, educating key influencers, establishing relationships, and driving adoption among existing customers. In short, success will be measured by the number of new senior care organizations we sign up to use WalkWise, and by the degree of expansion among existing users.
The area of responsibility for this role requires willingness to learn about the healthcare system and the unique challenges facing senior care organizations. You will need to be comfortable discussing the financial challenges of the market, operational considerations of technology adoption, and report back to stakeholders on the return-on-investment as it relates to decreased costs, improved quality, and increased staff efficiency.
With this outward-facing role, we look to you to represent our brand, products, and growing internal team in a professional and well-mannered way. You will ensure that both our existing and future customers are met with an inviting atmosphere in introductory meetings, ultimately focusing on engaging with new, unexplored areas to gain users and customers.
