Business Development Representative

KeyCare is a national virtual care company built natively on Epic. The Business Development Representative (BDR) owns the top of the sales funnel — identifying, researching, and qualifying prospective health system and health plan accounts, then handing off warm, well-qualified opportunities to our partnerships Vice President and Account Executives.

This is an entry-level, foundational role on a growing partnerships team, and a launchpad into a full sales career at KeyCare.

What You'll Do

Serve as the first point of contact for inbound and outbound leads — from web, Epic-affiliated channels, industry events, and other sources — and turn them into qualified, sales-ready opportunities.

Build and maintain a robust, well-documented pipeline by researching target accounts, running structured outreach, and applying consistent qualification criteria before handing off to VP/AE.

Responsibilities

• Prospecting: Identify, research, and qualify potential clients within assigned territories or accounts, and also respond to and qualify early-stage inbound leads.
• Lead Generation: Generate high-quality leads through various channels (cold calling, email, social media, etc.) and promptly work inbound leads as they come in, nurturing both through the sales pipeline.
• Pipelining: Build and maintain a robust sales pipeline by effectively managing and qualifying leads.
• Collaboration: Work closely with Vice Presidents (VP) and Account Executives (AEs) to understand their sales territories, target accounts, and sales strategies.
• CRM Hygiene & Data Management: Own day-to-day CRM upkeep, accurately and promptly logging lead information, activity, and pipeline stage changes, and publish dynamic reports for the partnerships team.
• Qualification & Scoring: Score leads against KeyCare’s qualification criteria to build an Ideal Opportunity Profile (IOP) before advancing them in the pipeline.
• Handoff & Alignment: Coordinate qualified-lead handoffs to the VP/AE with a detailed prospect profile and a brief internal alignment touchpoint and join the initial prospect meeting to carry over context.
• Sales Process Adherence: Follow established sales processes and qualification methodologies to ensure efficiency and consistency.
• Continuous Learning: Stay current on industry trends, KeyCare's services and Epic-native workflow, and sales best practices.

How You'll Be Measured

Activity Metrics

• Calls made and emails sent.
• Meetings booked with prospects.
• Pipeline created (total value generated).
• Average deal size of opportunities created.
• Sales-accepted leads.
• Contact rate and response rate.
• Meeting-to-opportunity conversion rate.

What We're Looking For

• 1-3 years of experience in a sales, customer-facing, or lead-generation role; prior BDR / BDR experience is a plus but not required.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills and the persistence to handle high call/email volume and frequent rejection without losing momentum.
• Comfort learning and applying structured qualification frameworks and adapting to KeyCare's own scoring criteria.
• Organized and detail-oriented in CRM hygiene — accurate, timely logging of activity and lead data is core to the role, not an afterthought.
• Curiosity about healthcare, virtual care, and the Epic ecosystem; no prior healthcare experience required, but genuine interest in the space matters.
• Coachable and metric-driven, with the self-motivation to work a pipeline independently in a remote, startup environment.
• Eligible for company benefits upon package roll out:
• Medical
• Vision
• Life Insurance
• Disability
• Unlimited PTO

Travel Requirements

This is primarily a desk-based, virtual role. Occasional travel (0–10%) may be requested to support industry events or team meetings.
