Account Executive - Life Sciences
Surescripts serves the nation through simpler, trusted health intelligence sharing, in order to increase patient safety, lower costs and ensure quality care. We deliver insights at critical points of care for better decisions - from streamlining prior authorizations to delivering comprehensive medication histories to facilitating messages between providers. This role focuses on building strategic relationships and delivering innovative solutions including electronic benefit verification (eBV), electronic prior authorization (ePA), and data offerings to pharmaceutical manufacturers, biotech firms, medical device companies, and patient support vendors. As the face of Surescripts for a growing territory, you will engage senior leadership at target accounts and manage the full sales cycle independently. Join and grow within a dynamic organization that is shaping the future of healthcare through cutting-edge products and services for the life sciences industry. Responsibilities

Market Intelligence: Monitor industry trends, competitor offerings, and product innovations to inform strategy and maintain a competitive edge. Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner with internal teams-including Account Management, Product Innovation, Legal, Finance, and Marketing-to ensure seamless implementation and customer satisfaction. Mentorship & Knowledge Sharing: Share life sciences expertise internally and mentor team members to strengthen team capabilities. Contracting Strategy: Identify and propose alternative contracting models that align customer objectives with Surescripts' goals. Champion Company Culture: Foster a culture of professionalism, collaboration, and success within the team and across the organization. Qualifications
Basic Requirements: 10+ years of sales or business development experience in life sciences, including pharma commercialization, patient access, or data solutions. Proven success selling services, software, SaaS, and/or data analytics solutions by demonstrating a record of meeting annual revenue targets through a mix of new business and account growth. 5+ years of experience closing complex deals of $500K+ within pharma and/or patient support programs. Demonstrated ability to engage senior stakeholders and navigate matrixed organizations. Experience managing a sales pipeline in Salesforce or a comparable enterprise CRM. Experience leading multidisciplinary teams through complex, multi-level sales processes with high-value accounts. Deep understanding of life sciences commercialization, patient access programs, and data-driven solutions. Proficiency with Microsoft Office Suite. Preferred Qualifications: Advanced degree (MBA or related field). History of developing innovative contracting strategies and partnership models. Familiarity with regulatory and compliance considerations in pharma and patient support services. Willingness and experience in mentoring sales talent for a rapidly expanding organization. Travel: Approximately 50% travel within the United States. Surescripts embraces flexibility through its Flexible Hybrid Work model for most positions. This model allows employees to work virtually while still utilizing our offices as collaboration centers. With alignment and agreement from your leadership, you can come and go from the office as needed. To be considered for employment, applicants must have a valid U.S. work authorization allowing work without restrictions with Surescripts in the U.S. At this time, we are unable to provide support or provide sponsorship for immigration benefits such as work visas. Additionally, we do not participate in academic training programs or work-study programs through an academic institution that require employer endorsement of F-1/CPT or F-1/STEM. We strive to create an environment where you can be yourself, share your ideas and work your way. We offer opportunities for employee development, as well as competitive compensation packages and extensive benefits.
