• At least 2 years in a sales management or leadership role.
• Strong knowledge of DME products, processes, and regulations.
• Proven ability to develop and execute sales strategies and meet or exceed sales goals, with a track record of growing a book of business measured by growth rather than activity.

Nice To Haves

• 2+ years of experience in sales management or a leadership role.
• Experience working with healthcare providers, hospitals, clinics, or long-term care facilities.
• Understanding of Medicare, Medicaid, and insurance reimbursement processes related to DME.
• Comfortable presenting clinical data and product value to physicians and referral sources; a science or clinical background is a plus.
• Competitive, coachable leadership style; prior quota-carrying sales experience and/or athletic background a plus.

Responsibilities

• Develop and execute sales strategies and plans to meet or exceed sales targets and market share objectives in assigned De Novo markets.
• Recruit, hire, onboard, mentor, and lead a team of 6–15 Account Representatives to achieve individual and team sales goals.
• Identify and pursue new business opportunities with healthcare providers, hospitals, clinics, and long-term care facilities in markets with no existing legacy accounts.
• Build and maintain strong relationships with key decision-makers, healthcare providers, and other stakeholders to promote PHM's product portfolio, including PAP, oxygen (O2), and ventilation (VENT) equipment.
• Coach representatives on territory-building strategy, referral-source development, and clinically credible positioning of products to physicians and discharge planners.
• Stay informed about industry trends, competitive dynamics, and new technologies, and provide insights to leadership.
• Collaborate with Operations, Billing, and Marketing to align sales efforts with company goals and ensure a high level of customer satisfaction.
• Monitor sales team performance, provide ongoing coaching, and identify areas for improvement through training and development programs.
• Maintain accurate records of sales activities, customer interactions, and account details using the company CRM.
• Ensure compliance with all relevant regulatory and industry standards for DME and healthcare broadly.
• Partner with the Chief Commercial Officer on regional go-to-market strategy, market prioritization, and resource allocation.
• Attend industry conferences, trade shows, and networking events to represent the company and expand business opportunities.
