Healthcare Business Development Executive

ABOUT THE COMPANY

Our client is a recognized leader of innovative equipment management services in Canada, helping hospitals and healthcare organizations improve how they manage medical equipment, service costs, operational risk, and long-term capital requirements. The organization has built its reputation by delivering measurable financial and operational value to healthcare providers. As it continues to expand across Western Canada, it is hiring an accomplished business development professional who can create opportunities rather than wait for them.

This is a true hunter role. You will pursue complex, high-value opportunities with hospitals, health authorities, and integrated healthcare networks across Western and Northern Canada.

PRIMARY RESPONSIBILITIES

• Build and execute a strategic business development plan focused on securing new hospital and health-system customers.
• Prospect consistently through executive outreach, referrals, networking, industry events, and targeted account development.
• Open doors within healthcare organizations where no immediate sales opportunity may exist and develop those relationships into qualified business.
• Build credibility with CEOs, CFOs, COOs, Vice Presidents, procurement executives, biomedical engineering leaders, finance teams, and clinical stakeholders.
• Identify operational, financial, equipment lifecycle, and service challenges and develop solutions aligned with customer priorities.
• Manage opportunities from initial prospecting through discovery, business case development, proposal, negotiation, contract execution, and implementation.
• Develop persuasive financial and operational business cases for senior leadership teams and other decision-making groups.
• Expand existing relationships by identifying additional facilities, departments, equipment categories, and service requirements.
• Represent the organization at healthcare conferences, executive forums, association meetings, and industry events.
