The Job Role
You will work in the Business Development (BD) team and report to the CEO; with your key overall aim to ensure new projects and pilots are successfully implemented, and then turn into contracts that scale nationally or internationally. You will deliver MediShout's solutions in hospitals and healthcare supplier environments, for pilots and early-stage projects. You will map out existing operational challenges, collaborate with our Product Team to design solutions, and ensure smooth digital adoption and behaviour change at hospital sites. You will need to work with the team to collect impact data and perform evaluation research to calculate our return-on-investment to customers.
You will need to liaise with senior stakeholders working in both hospitals and healthcare suppliers, to achieve your ultimate goal of driving successful project outcomes, which help convert projects into full-scale implementations nationally and internationally.
