Success means building a growing book of business and establishing Silvan Sage as a trusted concierge care resource across Chicago's North Shore.

• Experience in home health, hospice, senior living, healthcare staffing, medical sales, physician relations, or a closely related field

• A strong record of sales achievement, demonstrated through revenue growth, patient census growth, President's Club recognition, or similar results

• Strong prospecting and territory-management discipline

• Excellent interpersonal, presentation, and written communication skills

• Comfort using CRM and modern sales tools to manage activity and pipeline
