Company
About Granted Healthcare in the U.S. is broken - complex, confusing, and often unfair. Most people have no idea what their insurance actually covers, why their bill is so high, or where to turn when something goes wrong. Nearly 40% of medical bills contain errors or are incorrectly denied, yet individuals are left to navigate it all alone. Granted exists to change that. We’re building an AI-powered product that makes access to healthcare and insurance expertise hundreds of times more efficient and dramatically more human. By transforming the messy, manual work of claims and billing into a proactive, connected product, we can finally deliver trusted help - instantly, affordably, and at scale. Granted works for you - not your employer, not your insurer, not the healthcare system. Whether you’re managing your own coverage or navigating care for your family, we’re here to make sure you always get what you’re owed. We’re currently in stealth with exceptional user satisfaction and preparing to launch to everyone soon. If you’re driven to build products that make healthcare fairer, simpler, and more humane - and want to do the best work of your career - we’d love to meet you.

Responsibilities
- The US healthcare system is complex, error-prone, and financially draining. Medical bills and insurance coverage shouldn’t be this hard to navigate. At Granted, we’re building the one solution every American can turn to for help.
- Thanks to AI and new regulations, Granted can fight claim denials, correct billing errors, negotiate and lower bills, and make coverage easier to understand—saving people time, money, and stress. Our goal is simple: to be the American’s most trusted advocate and partner to manage their healthcare, and healthcare financial decisions.
- Build & manage the full BD pipeline: Prioritize high-potential verticals (broker networks, employer groups, payers, TPAs, etc.), source and qualify leads, and drive deals forward.
- Close new partnerships: Lead complex, high-touch BD cycles (~2-to-12 months), get early wins live, and iterate fast.
- Craft GTM narratives: Collaborate with marketing/branding to develop killer pitch decks, one-pagers, case studies, and partner onboarding materials.
- Develop a repeatable playbook: Build the infrastructure and tools (CRM, sales ops, outreach materials) to scale our channel motion.
- Represent Granted externally: Be the face of Granted with partners: credible, consultative, and relentless in your follow-through.
Qualification
Required
- 7+ years of experience in healthcare partnerships, biz dev, or strategy
- Background in a high-performance environment: top-tier undergrad, consulting firm, or venture-backed startup
- Track record of closing complex, high-value deals
- Strong project management skills, you can drive multiple deals forward without dropping the ball
- High integrity, low ego, and a desire to build something that matters
Preferred
- Experience at an early-stage startup
- Exposure to employer benefits, digital health, or insurance tech
- Network of healthcare systems, brokers, payers, or benefit leaders
- You get energy from being fluent in a system most people find opaque — you can talk employer benefits, payer incentives, broker economics, and TPA structures with anyone in the room.
- You're comfortable being the one who carries a 6–12 month deal all the way to signature — not just the one who sketches the strategy and hands it off.
- You want to build the partnerships motion from zero — picking the verticals, writing the playbook, working shoulder-to-shoulder with the CEO
- You're the one who writes the pitch, not just delivers it and you know how to shift your angle mid-meeting when the room tells you to.
- You care about the same problem Granted is solving. Medical bills and insurance shouldn't be this confusing or expensive, and you want to be the reason more Americans get access to an advocate that fights for them.
