- Deep understanding of NHS structure, including the transition to Integrated Health Organisations (IHOs) and the role of Arms Length Bodies.
- Extensive direct sales experience with consistent quota overachievement.
- Proven ability to manage a broad partner and advisory firm ecosystem.
- Experience navigating long, multi-stakeholder sales cycles (typically 6-18 months).
About You
