- Identify emerging client priorities and align Vheda's capabilities with their business objectives.
- Develop executive-level presentations and business cases that demonstrate Vheda's clinical, financial, and quality value proposition.

- Coordinate with internal stakeholders to structure commercially viable solutions.
- Maintain accurate opportunity records, pipeline forecasts, and sales activities within the company's CRM.

- Collaborate with Clinical, Product, Finance, and Marketing teams to develop proposals that address client needs.
- Leverage demonstrated program outcomes and ROI to strengthen expansion discussions.
- Support account planning and executive business reviews with a clear focus on identifying new commercial opportunities.
Required Qualifications
- 5-7 years of relevant experience in strategic account management, account expansion sales, business development, or enterprise client growth.
- Demonstrated success in generating incremental revenue through upselling, cross-selling, or expanding existing client relationships.
- Experience selling B2B solutions or services, preferably in healthcare, digital health, health plan services, or healthcare technology.
- Experience working with Medicaid, Medicare, or managed care organizations strongly preferred.
- Ability to build relationships with senior executives and navigate complex, multi-stakeholder purchasing processes.
- Strong negotiation, consultative selling, analytical, and presentation skills.
- Experience developing account growth plans, managing sales pipelines, and achieving revenue targets.
- Proficiency with CRM platforms and disciplined sales forecasting.

- Growth in annual recurring revenue and contract value across assigned accounts.
- Number and value of new product, market, and population expansion opportunities successfully closed.
- Development and progression of a qualified account expansion pipeline.
- Consistent execution of strategic account growth plans and accurate sales forecasting.
The successful candidate will be a proactive commercial professional who sees an existing client relationship not as an account to maintain, but as an opportunity to deliver additional value and accelerate mutual growth.
