About the role

As a Business Development Lead at Valerie Health, you'll be the first point of contact for the independent provider groups we're serving while you manage a team of BDRs. Your job is to open doors: identify the right prospects, reach them with messaging that actually resonates, and set the stage for our account executives to close.

This isn't a role where you read from a script. Our buyers – practice administrators, COOs, VPs of Operations – are smart, busy, and skeptical. You'll need to understand their world well enough to earn their time, not just request it.

You'll work closely with our GTM team in a fast-moving environment where your ideas, your patterns, and your wins directly shape how we grow, and you'll support a growing team of BDRs to do the same.

What you'll do

• Own top-of-funnel prospecting: research, prioritize, and contact leads

• Execute personalized, multi-channel outreach (email, phone, LinkedIn, in person visits) that speaks directly to the operational challenges practices face

• Qualify inbound leads and route them efficiently to account executives

• Build and maintain pipeline in HubSpot, keeping records clean and stages accurate

• Partner with the GTM team to refine ICP targeting, test new messaging, and iterate on sequences

• Represent Valerie Health at industry conferences and virtual events

• Share what you're hearing in the field (competitor intel, objections, pain points) to sharpen how we sell
