VP, Partnerships →

World Class Health (WCH) is an AI-native specialty-care Center of Excellence covering elective surgery, musculoskeletal (MSK) care, imaging, infusions, cancer care, women's health, and weight-loss and GLP-1 management. Our AI identifies members who are likely to need specialty care before they choose a specialist, then engages and navigates them to high-quality, lower-cost providers. Employers get better outcomes for their people, backed by the industry's first 100% contractual savings guarantee.

We serve self-funded employers directly and through benefits consultants, and we are building distribution through TPAs and health plans. We are based in San Francisco and growing quickly.

The role

The VP, Partnerships builds and grows WCH's relationships with the benefits consultants, brokers, and resellers who advise employers on specialty care. You will make WCH a trusted name in their offices, bring us into more RFPs and finalist presentations, and build a broker and reseller network that sells WCH to employers on our behalf. The role reports to the Chief Commercial Officer and sits on the Growth team alongside Sales, Marketing, Customer Success, and Payers & Partnerships.

Employers buy specialty care through advisors they trust, so this channel is central to our growth. The role is field-based: you will spend more than half your time on the road, meeting consultants and brokers at regional events and in their offices across the U.S.

Manage the pipeline
