Partnerships and Business Development Associate

About the Role

At Seen Health, Expansion is the engine that allows us to bring our transformative PACE model to more seniors. Our growth depends on our ability to architect complex, sustainable partnerships that allow us to enter and scale in new markets with speed and local resonance.

Reporting directly to the Head of Expansion, you will be a key driver of new market entry. This is a high-ownership, externally-facing role for someone who thrives building relationships, representing an organization with confidence, and getting things done without a lot of hand-holding. You'll work across two interconnected areas: local business development in the San Gabriel Valley and greater LA area, and new market expansion research and early relationship-building across emerging PACE markets nationally. This is not a back-office role. You'll be at community meetings, on the phone with health officials and prospective partners, and attending conferences. If you love building from the ground up and want to see your work have a direct impact on how we grow — this is the job.

Key Responsibilities 

Local Business Development & Community Partnerships

• Represent Seen Health at local coalition meetings, chamber of commerce events, cultural community gatherings, and senior care forums in the SGV and greater LA area
• Build and maintain relationships with day health programs, community health centers, hospitals, senior centers, and local referral partners
• Initiate and manage outreach to prospective care delivery partners — Mandarin-language outreach is a core part of this work
• Identify and develop local BD opportunities that the team has mapped but hasn't had bandwidth to pursue
• Help grow our referral and enrollment pipeline through consistent local presence

Market Expansion & Intelligence

• Monitor PACE program developments nationally — RFP timelines, legislative activity, regulatory readiness, and competitive landscape — across a portfolio of target states
• Research new markets: population demographics, existing care providers, state agency contacts, and potential partnership opportunities
• Contribute to application and proposal logistics as opportunities take shape
• Surface timely opportunities to the strategy team and maintain organized, up-to-date market intelligence

Qualifications

• Based in the Los Angeles / San Gabriel Valley area or willing to be
• 2–5 years of experience in healthcare, community health, or a related field
• Demonstrated ability to represent an organization confidently and effectively in meetings and partner conversations — you're the face in the room when leadership isn't there
• Execution-oriented: you get things done with limited direction and follow up without being asked
• Comfortable operating in a fast-moving environment where priorities evolve
• Strong written communication for briefings, partner summaries, and internal updates
• Mandarin fluency (spoken and written) — essential given the communities we serve and the nature of local outreach

Nice-to-have qualifications:

• Experience with PACE, ADHC, FQHC, or other senior care / long-term care settings
• Familiarity with DHCS, CMS, or state Medicaid program structures
• Additional language fluency desired (Cantonese, Korean, or Spanish)
• Prior experience supporting RFP responses or grant applications
• Existing relationships in the SGV senior care or community health ecosystem
