This role shares a unified competency profile with three peer Division Director seats (Patient Conversion, Physician Outreach & Clinical Review, and Physician Operations & Care Delivery). Same type of hire in every seat; scope and emphasis differ by role.
Competency | What it means for this seat |
Sales organization & structure | Has built or run a structured, measurable sales operation across phone, video, and in-person channels. Fluent in funnel definition, stage discipline, SLAs, call-quality standards, forecast methodology, and pipeline hygiene. Can take a marketing campaign and translate it into telephone dialogue, PRC scripts, video-consult flow, physician talking points, and coordinator handoffs. |
Communication and dialogue engineering | Builds and coaches conversation frameworks — introduction, discovery, differentiation, recommendation, alignment, close. Trains talk tracks, objection handling, personality-type reading, and value-based selling. Fluent on camera. Coaches others to run financial-quote reviews without pressure and physician conversations that convert without misrepresenting clinical judgment. |
Persuasion with ethics | Uses persuasion in the service of the patient's best interest. Reads personality types and calibrates approach. Holds a strong and caring heart, solid ethics, clear values. Will not tolerate pressure tactics, false urgency, or clinical overreach; will not reward incentives that produce them. |
Management depth | Runs a real management system: coaching cadence, call audits, CRM discipline, pipeline reviews, talent reviews, documented corrective action, sales certification, and PIP execution. Does not confuse being a top individual producer with managing a team. |
Operations backbone | Understands workflow, capacity, handoffs, and service-level design. Partners with Operations without being defeated by operational complexity. Knows why a beautiful sales call fails when the handoff is broken. |
Technology and automation | Fluent CRM operator. Sees the sales stack as an accountability system, not just a reporting tool. Identifies automation and AI opportunities — call scoring, coaching AI, lead-scoring, agent-assist, CRM-driven cadences — and partners with technology to implement. |
Marketing strategy sense | Reads marketing outputs and translates them into telephone strategy, dialogue emphasis, and team-level focus. Provides real feedback to Marketing on what actually converts. |
Educator / value-based sales orientation | Comfortable running a consultative, educator-led model. Trains team to educate first and recommend second. Runs a decision-support conversation, not a pitch. |
Seat-Specific Differentiators
Every Division Director seat draws on the unified competency profile above. What follows are the emphases that distinguish this seat from its peers.
• First-contact discipline at scale. The candidate has personally built or run a first-contact / inbound qualification operation with measurable results — call-quality audits, coaching cadence, speed-to-lead discipline, contact-rate management, and CRM hygiene are second nature.
• Educator-led, no-pressure consultation. The candidate can coach a team to be an educator, not a salesperson, on the first call. Guides the patient to a fit — not a sale — and preserves trust for the downstream PRC conversation.
• Care-path assignment discipline. The candidate can operate a rigorous care-path assignment framework in coordination with Clinical, without overreaching on clinical judgment or under-committing on assignment quality.
• Handoff engineering. The candidate designs and enforces handoff quality with a downstream partner (Patient Conversion) as a joint operating discipline — outbound data set, SLA, acceptance criteria, and quality feedback loops.
• Nurture and reactivation instinct. The candidate builds nurture cadences and lost-lead reactivation as measured, disciplined programs — not one-off campaigns.
• Cross-divisional partnership without turf. The candidate co-designs the intake-to-conversion handoff with the DD Patient Conversion peer and measures joint outcomes without competing for downstream scope.
• Automation and AI fluency. The candidate identifies where AI and automation can enhance the educator conversation — call scoring, coaching AI, lead scoring, agent assist — and partners with Enterprise Projects to implement.
Targeted Candidate Profile
Prior roles that predict success
• VP or Director of Sales at a high-touch consultative healthcare service with a first-contact / inbound qualification motion.
• Director of Patient Access, Patient Navigation, or Care Coordination at a specialty medicine business with disciplined coaching and call-quality standards.
• Sales Development / Inside Sales Director at a program-based business (elective, high-cost, decision-heavy) with a strong educator-led conversation model.
• First-line sales-leadership at a consultative-service business with prior experience running care-path or program assignment and nurture programs.
Signals that raise conviction
• Has coached a first-contact team to measured improvement in contact rate, qualified progression, and speed-to-lead.
• Has built or run a care-path or eligibility-assignment framework in coordination with clinical or medical authority.
• Has designed a handoff protocol with a downstream sales team and been measured jointly on outcomes.
• Has led a nurture / reactivation program with measured lift in re-engagement.
• Has partnered with marketing on source-quality feedback and campaign optimization with measurable improvement.
Signals that raise concern
• Career has been in high-pressure inbound sales without demonstrated educator or consultation orientation.
• The candidate wants to absorb second-tier conversion scope; wants PRCs reporting to them — that model has been considered and rejected.
• Analytics fluency is thin; the candidate cannot describe a funnel definition or speed-to-lead measurement from a blank page.
• Signs of running a leaderboard culture that damages patient-trust or team morale.
• The candidate treats intake as a call-center supervision role rather than as a Division Director role.
