Develop customized value propositions for Medicare Advantage, ACA, commercial, fully insured, and Medicaid lines of business, as well as broader enterprise-wide agreements.

Create compelling sales presentations, proposals, RFP responses, and business cases in partnership with Marketing and other internal stakeholders.

Work closely with Pricing, Finance, and Legal/Contracting teams to structure sophisticated enterprise agreements, including master service agreements and multi-line statements of work.

Lead the development and negotiation of statements of work, commercial agreements, and contracts to secure sustainable, high-value partnerships.

Maintain accurate pipeline information and sales activities in HubSpot while delivering reliable monthly, quarterly, and annual revenue forecasts to the Chief Commercial Officer.
