As our senior individual seller for health plans, you will focus on D-SNP, MLTC/LTSS and regional Medicare Advantage segments, bringing the relationships and credibility to open doors and the judgment to shape how Audicus wins in this segment. This role is ideal for a seasoned enterprise seller who has closed complex deals directly with health plans and wants to build a segment, not just work one.
