About Aware Health

50% of the workforce shows up to work in pain due to musculoskeletal conditions ranging from acute pain, like muscle strains, to more chronic pain. People with MSK conditions are often misdiagnosed and are treated passively with opioids, injections or surgery. Often, these expensive and risky treatment methods can be avoided altogether with more modern approaches to preventing, diagnosing and treating MSK pain. Our platform gets people the right amount of help, avoiding inappropriate and unnecessary tests, drugs and surgeries. Our approach has resulted in positive outcomes for our members and has saved self-funded employers up to 59% annually in MSK costs.

About the Job

You'll be a key player in identifying, qualifying, and generating new business opportunities. Reporting to our SVP, Growth, you will be an integral part of our sales engine, contributing to the identification of potential clients, nurturing leads, and setting up meetings for our Account Executives. You'll be expected to drive top-of-funnel activity, helping to build relationships and create demand for our solution. We will invest in your growth, give you exposure to the full sales cycle with our SVP, Growth as a mentor, and ideally promote you into an AE role down the line.

We’re looking for someone who thrives in a fast-paced, startup environment, is energized by sales challenges, and can adapt to changing needs. The right person will help us shape our outreach strategies, improve processes, and contribute to scaling our efforts. If you’re excited by early-stage growth and enjoy building something from the ground up, this is the role for you.
