As a Strategic Health System Executive, you will be responsible for end-to-end management of large deals, including portfolio and deal strategies, day-to-day execution of the commercial plan, and coordination with key partners within the Leica team.

  • Provide regular updates on progress to management and field leadership, and proactively flag instances where higher-level management support is required to facilitate the deal process.
  • Craft enterprise-level sales campaigns that consider the full spectrum of Leica’s portfolio, ensuring that each team member understands the needs of the entire IDN and how their actions contribute to the broader customer partnership. Collaborate with Regional Directors and Sales Managers to ensure alignment between local teams and the health system.

Ensure accurate and timely opportunity funnel maintenance and customer data in SFDC, with coaching as needed.
