• Help shape digital outreach efforts (e.g., CRM campaigns, website optimizations, referrals) to drive provider action
  
  
• Lead experiments to improve lead quantity and quality
  
  
• Collaborate on forecasting, dashboards, and reporting to track progress and inform strategy
  
  

What Success Looks Like

• A motivated, supported team consistently hitting and exceeding goals
  
  
• Increased volume and quality of provider leads entering and progressing through the funnel
  
  
• Shortened time to provider launch and first revenue
  
  
• Measurable improvement in funnel efficiency, with insights shared across teams
  
  

You Might Be a Fit If You Have

• 2+ years of experience managing teams, with a strong track record of coaching to high performance
  
  
• Experience working with a CRM (HubSpot or equivalent) to manage and report on lead flow
  
  
• A resourceful, test-and-learn mindset—you move quickly, ask good questions, and try new things
