What are the responsibilities and job description for the Market Engagement Manager position at Tembo Health?
About The Company
Tembo Health is a mission-driven virtual medical practice dedicated to equipping caregivers with the support and care they need to manage dementia at home. We believe that no family should navigate cognitive decline alone, and our specialized services are designed to bridge the gaps in the traditional healthcare system.
Our flagship offerings include comprehensive dementia care management, personalized navigation, and specialized cognitive assessments. We also provide 24/7 urgent medical support to keep patients safe at home and avoid unnecessary ER visits and hospitalizations. We are venture-backed by top-tier investors (Bloomberg Beta, B Capital, Resolute, AARP) and led by entrepreneurs who have built unicorn tech companies like Lumeris, Flatiron Health, and Oscar.
About The Role
We are seeking a Market Engagement Manager to serve as the "quarterback" for our Nevada operations. You will be the face of Tembo Health for primary care practices, specialists, and community partners across the state. Your mission is to ensure that every patient and caregiver facing dementia has a seamless pathway to the expert care management and navigation they deserve.
This is a hybrid role that requires strategic relationship building, data-driven practice management, and a "roll-up-your-sleeves" approach to market operations and growth.
