Strategic Growth Executive
Job description
About the role
At Ambience, the Strategic Growth Executive is entrusted with owning some of the most complex enterprise pursuits in the company's portfolio. This role is responsible for restoring humanity to healthcare by removing administrative burdens through AI-driven documentation and workflow solutions. The hire will directly support health systems across North America by enabling providers to focus on delivering exceptional patient care.

You will be expected to deliver high results while navigating multi-stakeholder buying processes and closing large, long-cycle enterprise agreements.
