[Hiring] Director, Customer Success @Pearl Health

Pearl Health is powering the future of healthcare. We help primary care providers and organizations to deliver quality healthcare to the patients who need it most, when they need it most — and get rewarded for keeping patients healthy.

Our technology, services, and financial tools enable better, more proactive care, decrease total cost of care across patient panels, and optimize performance in value-based care models for Traditional Medicare and Medicare Advantage.

We are a team of physicians and public health experts (Stanford, Harvard, Mount Sinai), technologists (athenahealth, Amazon, Meta, Flatiron), healthcare innovators (Centivo, Aledade, Stellar, Arcadia), and experienced risk management professionals (CVS/Aetna, Humana, Oscar) who believe that primary care providers are the key to addressing our healthcare system’s biggest challenges.

Since its founding in 2020, Pearl has expanded to partner with thousands of primary care providers in practices and organizations across 44 states. Our investors include Andreessen Horowitz, Viking Global Investors, AlleyCorp, and SV Angel.

We are seeking a stellar, West Coast-based Customer Success Director, experienced in engaging with physician practices and eager to help our current customer base succeed in the ACO REACH model, MSSP, and beyond. The Customer Success Director may serve as both a people manager to several Relationship Managers, as well as an individual contributor responsible for owning the success of several accounts, which includes:  program onboarding and Pearl Product implementation, transformation to a value based environment, and programmatic success by investigating and creating alignment with provider internal operations and program objectives. 

You will own the development of relationships and performance of Pearl’s West Coast and Central region Primary Care provider customers, enabling Value-Based Care (VBC) program fluency, propelling client satisfaction activities that define our service model, driving performance in Value-Based Care, and securing contractual renewal as applicable.  The Customer Success Director will be accountable for developing strategies to enable Pearl to drive superior VBC performance across all small-to-midsize customers, while maintaining Pearl’s best-in-class Net Promoter and CSAT scores.

Your commitment to delivering better outcomes for patients, and rewards for Pearl’s provider customers will be contagious in the regions that you serve.
