• Understand prospect needs, identify high-potential opportunities, and connect qualified buyers with the appropriate Account Executive.
• Collaborate with Marketing and Account Executives on account strategy, outreach campaigns, messaging, and meeting preparation to create a seamless buyer experience.
• Maintain accurate CRM data, track activity and pipeline health, and consistently meet activity, meeting, and pipeline generation goals.
• Refine outreach strategies, messaging, and talk tracks while building expertise in KLAS's solutions, the healthcare market, and the challenges facing prospective clients.

What You Bring

• 1–4 years of experience in business development, sales development, inside sales, or a related role.
• Experience working in B2B SaaS, healthcare technology, healthcare services, or another complex solution-selling environment is preferred.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills.
• Confidence engaging director- and executive-level stakeholders.
• A proactive, goal-oriented mindset with strong organizational skills.
• Ability to learn quickly, embrace feedback, and thrive in a metrics-driven environment.
• Experience with Salesforce, LinkedIn Sales Navigator, HubSpot, Salesloft, Outreach, or similar CRM/prospecting tools is a plus.
• Bachelor’s degree preferred but not required.
