VP, Employer Sales - Plains

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 a VP, Mid-Market Sales in the Plains / Central region, you’ll report directly to the SVP, Mid-Market Sales.

As an integral member of our sales leadership team, you will have the responsibility of managing a team of Regional Directors and Account Executives. Your team will focus on sales within the 50 to 9,999 life segment, making significant contributions to our overall growth and success.

What you will do

• Lead and manage a team of Regional Directors and Account Executives in the Central Region, ensuring they meet and exceed their sales targets
• Develop and implement effective sales strategies and initiatives to drive revenue growth within the specified segment
• Collaborate closely with cross-functional teams to align strategies and achieve company objectives
• Provide leadership and guidance to your team, fostering a culture of excellence, collaboration, and accountability
• Oversee the identification and pursuit of new business opportunities within the region
• Monitor and analyze regional sales performance, offering insights and recommendations for improvement
• Ensure compliance with company policies and standards, as well as industry regulations
• Establish and maintain strong relationships with new and existing brokers and partners in your region

What we're looking for

• Minimum of 5 years of proven track record in sales leadership and management, with experience in delivering against team quotas
• Extensive experience working with benefits brokers and consultants
• Exceptional leadership and people management skills, with a proven ability to inspire and lead a high-performing team
• Strong strategic thinking and problem-solving abilities
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills
• Results-oriented mindset with a focus on achieving and exceeding sales goals
• Bachelor's degree in Business Administration or a related field (Master's degree preferred)
• 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.
