  • Maintain and grow relationships with existing referral sources across various healthcare settings, such as hospitals, physicians’ offices, clinics, assisted living, and skilled nursing facilities.
  • Act as both a hunter and closer — independently driving the full sales cycle from lead generation to closing.
  • Achieve or exceed weekly, monthly, and quarterly sales targets, with a high volume of in-person interactions.
  • Promote the company’s full range of services, including private duty care, skilled nursing, and staffing solutions.
  • Maintain detailed and up-to-date records of all activities, leads, and contacts in the company’s CRM (StubHub).
  • Collaborate with the Branch Manager, Director of Operations, and Regional Director to develop and implement strategic sales and marketing plans.
  • Monitor market trends, competitor activity, and community needs to provide strategic insights to leadership.
