About The Position

Credera is seeking an AWS Sales & Growth Executive focused on Healthcare & Life Sciences, with an initial emphasis on growing the life sciences business and selectively developing opportunities with healthcare payers and providers. The role builds on Credera’s established client relationships and delivery experience and connects industry priorities to AWS-enabled solutions across AI, customer data, personalization, analytics, cloud modernization, and operational efficiency. It requires awareness of privacy, consent, governance, and other considerations in regulated environments. This is a consultative, industry-oriented individual-contributor role rather than a traditional quota-driven sales position. The executive acts as a strategic advisor and growth leader, partnering with clients, AWS teams, and Credera delivery leaders to shape and expand enterprise transformation programs. The position is based within commuting distance of an existing Credera office in North America; travel is up to 50%. Omnicom policy requires employees to work in the office at least three days a week, unless additional in-office days are directed by the agency or manager. The role includes an annual sales quota of $10 million, achieved through new business development and expansion of existing accounts. Compensation is listed as $195,000–$265,000 plus a commission-based bonus structure, with additional variable compensation tied to individual sales performance and a bonus tied to company performance. Comprehensive benefits are offered, with compensation details to be shared during the interview process.
