About Phamily

Jaan Health is transforming healthcare with our leading product, Phamily, an AI-powered platform that helps care teams deliver personalized, proactive care at scale. Across corporate, clinical leadership, and technical roles, you’ll help co-create by building, guiding, and enabling, and being a part of teams that focus on what matters most: improving patient outcomes, strengthening care teams, and advancing a human-centered healthcare environment.

Role Description

As our Business Development Specialist, you’ll play a key role in taking hot marketing leads and converting them into qualified sales meetings that drive new business. You’ll work closely with our Account Executives and Manager of Demand Generation to identify the right targets, craft compelling messaging, and execute campaigns that deliver results. This is a 90% sales, 10% strategy role that’s a vital part of the bridge between marketing and sales.

If you’re a sales professional looking for greater ownership (or less travel) and are ready to build at a high-growth startup, this role is for you.

Key Responsibilities:

• Identify and prioritize the most compelling leads and convert them into qualified meetings using multi-touch, multi-channel sequences
• Partner with AEs to engage high-priority accounts with thoughtful, personalized messaging that develops trusted relationships
• Pick up the phone—there’s nothing as impactful as a knowledgeable conversation, and you’ll be comfortable with cold calling, navigating blockers, and getting to your target
• Create customized cadences and follow up on leads with original, ABM-style outbound messaging
• Research new accounts, build target lists, create persona playbooks, and constantly test and refine your methodology to drive more qualified meetings
• Immerse yourself in the healthcare landscape, understand what motivates our ICPs, and always be looking for new opportunities to make an impact
• Navigate Hubspot like a native (training can be provided, but you’ll be expected to be proficient within 1 month and expert within 3), and ensure all sales activities are properly documented
• Build a feedback loop with the marketing team to develop and test messaging, measure campaign performance, and report outcomes to company leadership
  
  

You’ll thrive here if you are:

• Disciplined in your hunt, confident in conversations, and the person prospects trust to make sense of the space
• Willing to think creatively, experiment, and do whatever it takes to get results
• Passionate about sales and love being at the forefront of execution, but able to take a step back and think strategically about the big picture
  
  

Requirements:

• Bachelor’s degree (business/marketing/finance or similar) or 1 years in B2B sales, business development, account management, or similar
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills; executive presence with customers and internal teams
• Analytical mindset, comfortable interpreting data and making clear, defensible recommendations
• Familiarity with common sales and martech tools, including AI, and enthusiasm about using technology to accelerate the pace without reducing quality
• Prior healthcare experience is strongly preferred but not essential for the right candidate
  
  

Preffered Requirements:

• Entrepreneurial DNA: A 'builder' mentality with the ability to operate effectively in high-ambiguity environments where processes may not be fully fleshed out.
  
  

Work style & logistics

• Hybrid - Chicago in-person at least 3 days per week
• Occasional travel for the team to on-sites or industry events as needed
  
  

Our compensation & benefits

• Competitive compensation commensurate with experience: $80-$100k on base - 50% on variable $120-$150 OTE
• Potential to earn equity based on performance
• Remote-friendly work environment
• Medical, dental, and vision coverage for employees and dependents at a nominal cost
• Paid maternity leave
• FSA and Dependent Care account options
• 401(k) Eligibility after 6 months of full-time employment
• Collaborative, mission-driven work environment
  
  

If you take pride in delivering results, embrace challenges, and proactively seek improvement, then this is the place for you. You’ll join a smart, humble, and collaborative team dedicated to improving healthcare.
