Clinical Business Development Manager – Experienced Mental Health Therapist

Who We're Looking for:

PESI prides itself on being one of the most respected and influential providers of continuing education in the world.

Since 1979 we’ve equipped millions of professionals with the training they need to change lives through our webinars, on-demand recordings, virtual summits, in-person conferences, live workshops and more.

Today we’ve grown into an international organization with customers and employees around the globe…

…but working here still feels like a close-knit community of team members united by a shared mission to connect knowledge with need.

We’re looking to add someone to our team as a Clinical Business Development Manager – Experienced Mental Health Therapist.

That means developing strong relationships with thought leaders, expert trainers, authors, and organizations across the fields we serve; keeping a sharp eye on new developments, emerging topics, and important conversations, and seeking out distinctive voices whose perspectives and approaches will help our professional learners excel at their work in the mental health and healthcare fields.

So if you’re a clinician who wants to expand your impact beyond the therapy room by shaping education for thousands of other providers, read on.

What You Will Be Doing: (responsibilities)

• Identify the latest trends, techniques, approaches, topics, and leading voices in the psychotherapy field that are most relevant to professionals
• Identify and build strong relationships with trainers and respected voices in psychotherapy, including nationally recognized experts and emerging thought leaders
• Turn those ideas and relationships into compelling CE webinars, conferences, courses, and training programs that clinicians find practical, credible, and worth attending
• Use marketing, sales, copywriting, and data-driven insights to create persuasive offers that attract clinicians seeking relevant, impactful professional CE training
• Collaborate effectively across the organization with various departments to bring educational products and programs to market in a timely manner
• Stay connected to evolving conversations surrounding the treatment of trauma, anxiety, couples work, ethics, neurodiversity, cultural responsiveness, and emerging therapeutic modalities
• Use performance data and market trends to evaluate marketing strategies, refine campaign direction, and improve future results

What You Bring to the Team: (skills, mindset, and requirements)

• Flexibility to be self-motivated but also excel in a team environment
• A keen entrepreneurial drive and comfort testing ideas, learning from results, and moving quickly toward what’s next
• Comfort collaborating with others, asking questions, seeking advice, and saying “I don’t know” when there is more to learn
• Ability to be candid, respectfully disagree, and support ideas with data while staying open to where that data leads
• Drive to find “what’s next,” take smart risks, learn from failure, and stay in the driver’s seat of your career
• Demonstrated ability to effectively prioritize and manage multiple projects while ensuring accuracy, quality, and on-time completion
• Excellent problem-solving skills in a challenging and fast-paced environment
• Intermediate to advanced computer proficiency in Microsoft applications
• Marketing, sales, copywriting, storytelling, and enough comfort with numbers and margins to create offers that attract clinicians and make good business decisions; we can teach these skills if they do not come naturally yet

• People who support ideas with data, follow that data as they scale, and use results to make better decisions
• People who are driven to find what is next, willing to lose, and able to turn what they learn in failure into future success

Who May Find This Role Challenging:
