Senior Director, Healthcare Markets & Growth

Yesterday San Francisco, CA

At Collective Health, we’re transforming how employers and their people engage with their health benefits by seamlessly integrating cutting-edge technology, compassionate service, and world-class user experience design.

The  Senior Director, Healthcare Markets & Growth will be a pivotal force in driving Collective Health’s growth for the Hospital and Provider System market. This strategic role is responsible for identifying, developing, and executing business development initiatives that secure new partnerships with health systems and hospitals offering commercial health plans. The successful candidate will possess a deep understanding of the unique challenges and opportunities faced by "Payviders" – health systems acting as payers – and will be instrumental in positioning our capabilities as a critical competitive advantage.

This leader will be a subject matter expert in the commercial health plan landscape, particularly as it pertains to health system ownership and operations. They will understand the intricacies of how hospitals and health systems currently contract with insurers and identify compelling reasons for them to leverage a third-party administrative platform for their commercial offerings. This role will directly contribute to revenue growth by expanding our distribution and bringing provider systems clients onto these new channels, in partnership with cross functional teams.

What you'll do:

  • Market Leadership & Sales
    • Execute a go-to-market strategy to sell our health plan administration solutions directly to "Payviders" - health systems that own or administer their own health plans. A core element of this strategy is supporting our Sales team in closing hospital customers
    • You will identify key decision-makers and drive the sales cycle of business development initiatives focusing on systems in need of operational efficiency
  • Product & Value Proposition 
    • Clearly articulate how our capabilities provide a competitive advantage. Partner with product teams to advocate for new features that meet the needs of this market
  • Cross-Functional Collaboration 
    • Work with Sales, Marketing, and other teams to ensure a unified go-to-market strategy. Provide market feedback to improve our service delivery and equip the commercial and product teams with insight

To be successful in this role, you'll need:
