Account Executive - Southwest

Who we want

This is a role for someone who wants to work on a hard problem, deliver real impact and be pushed to be the best version of themselves. As an Account Executive in the Southwest region, you’ll report directly to the VP, Employer Sales, Southwest. Candidates for this role will be required to be based in the territory they are handling.

The Account Executive will deliver strong sales results within the Southwest market in the 50-199 life segment. This role’s focus is relationship management within our partnership ecosystem of benefits brokers, consultants, general agents and employers. You will carry your own quota, activating new brokers, deepening the partners already producing for Garner, and opening the next wave of top-producing advisors. It is a build-and-close role: you fill your own pipeline, run deals end to end, and put in place the tracking that keeps your territory predictable. Every partner you activate puts higher-quality, lower-cost care in reach for more members.

What you will do

• Own revenue responsibilities for your specific territory in the Southwest market, which includes: AR, LA, TN, MS, TX, WY, NM, CO
• Continue and expand on Garner’s existing broker relationships
• Develop foundational infrastructure and processes for tracking our sales and partnership pipeline

What we're looking for

• Experience in a quota-carrying channel or partner sales role
• A desire to work in a rapidly evolving startup environment with notable upside
• A desire to be a part of our mission to improve the healthcare system
• Experience selling benefits-adjacent products or in healthcare is a plus, but not required
• Candidates for this role will be required to be based in the territory they are handling
• Strong ability to present and communicate a value proposition to external stakeholders
• A desire to do work that matters: and to be held to a high standard while doing it. You're energized by a mission with measurable outcomes, not just good intentions. You engage with AI tools as part of how you do your best work, and hold yourself accountable to outcomes that matter beyond your team’s metrics.

What you’ll get here

You’ll work on problems that matter, at a company working to change healthcare at scale. You’ll work at the intersection of AI and systemic healthcare reform, where the problems we solve are as interesting and compelling as the mission.

At Garner, you’ll take on real, ambitious problems with real ownership and autonomy, alongside exceptional, principles-based people who genuinely want you to win. It’s demanding by design. You’ll be challenged to stretch beyond what you thought possible and receive consistent coaching to help you grow and do the best work of your career. This isn't the right fit for everyone, and that's intentional. The people here are driven by what's at stake for real people, and that's what gives our intensity its purpose. 

Please note: we are unable to sponsor or take over sponsorship of an employment visa at this time.

Compensation

The target total comp (inclusive of base + bonus) range for this role is $160,000 – $175,000. Individual compensation will depend on qualifications, skills, and applicable laws.

In addition to base compensation, this role is eligible to participate in our equity incentive plan and benefits package, including: flexible PTO, Medical/Dental/Vision plan options, 401(k) with company match, flexible spending accounts, Teladoc Health, and more.

Few roles offer this combination: work that is genuinely hard, a mission that is genuinely important, and a team that is genuinely invested in your success. If that’s what you’re looking for, we’d love to meet you.
