The posting
Senior living is one of the fastest-growing sectors in the United States.

- Coordinate targeting tactics with dealer partner leadership to drive sales volume and fulfill regional performance metrics
- Gather competitive intelligence on senior living community technology standards, regional vendor pricing, and regulatory shifts to refine territory sales strategy
- Leverage existing corporate-level relationships with senior living brands and ownership groups to generate immediate pipeline activity and shorten time-to-first-meeting across target accounts

- Proven, pre-existing relationships at the C-suite and VP level within major senior living brands, REITs, and national ownership groups, with the ability to open doors and secure executive-level meetings from day one
- Comprehensive understanding of telecommunications, managed broadband, and entertainment technology solutions as they apply to senior living and long-term care environments
