At Akina Pharmacy, the shared purpose that drives us is to enrich the lives of the people in our care through compounded medications. As a rapidly growing people-first organization, we embrace the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS) to ensure our success by prioritizing the recruitment and development of exceptional talent.

Position Summary

We're a fast-growing compounding pharmacy, and we're hiring a Director of Sales to build the foundation of our revenue engine.

This is a builder role. You will be the person who creates the systems, runs the plays, coaches the team, and does the work. You will report directly to Akina's Chief Operating Officer, and carry management responsibility of an Account Executive, a Customer/Provider Success Manager and a Marketing Manager. But equally important is your willingness to roll up your sleeves and be deeply hands-on: building HubSpot workflows, writing sales playbooks, drafting campaigns, going on sales calls, and measuring what works.

If you're at your best when you're designing and executing, and you get energy from building things that didn't exist before, this role is for you.

• Serves as the voice of the provider market internally, creating a consistent feedback loop between Sales, Marketing, Pharmacy, R&D, and Operations. Brings forward provider insights, product requests, objections, ordering trends, and market signals to help Akina prioritize product launches, refine messaging, improve sales enablement, and identify new growth opportunities.

5. Team Performance & Accountability

• Owns departmental metrics and revenue forecasting, tracking and reporting on pipeline health, conversion rates, and marketing performance weekly and monthly to drive continuous improvement.
• Sets team goals, runs weekly team meetings, holds consistent 1-on-1s, and creates the accountability structure that allows the team to execute with clarity and confidence.
