Who we are

You. Better. With Alan.

Alan's vision is to make prevention the new norm of care for all. Our mission is to help people live in good health to 100 while helping employers feel proud, turning health benefits from a cost centre into their most valuable investment.

By connecting all aspects of care - private, public, and direct to consumer - we create the most member-centric healthcare experience. Through deep engagement, we empower everyone to overcome day-to-day health obstacles and live healthier lives.

We partner with 32,000+ companies of all sizes, serving more than 700K members, and have reached €500M+ in ARR.

Our team of 600 people (still growing) operates across France , Spain , Belgium , and Canada .

9. Disciplined Executors: We focus on making good decisions quickly, maintain accountability, and break down problems into manageable pieces.

10. Fight for Simplicity: We eliminate unnecessary processes, stay concise and articulate, and maintain smart frugality while solving problems pragmatically.
    

Your Mission

As our very first Account Executive in Canada, you will be at the heart of Alan's growth in Canada and best positioned to lead our team moving forward if you overachieve.

You will take our GM's outbound model that has built >$10M ARR in pipeline and build the processes & rigour around it to scale us nation-wide. We are currently building the GTM team around you, with Growth Marketing & CS planned for this year.

You must be willing to do the full sales cycle from prospection to onboarding & success. You’ll need to be scrappy, low-ego (there’s no work below us) and buy into our mission of improving the healthcare system in Canada.

You’ll be expected to challenge us to improve our products, our methods and our strategy, and get involved in other projects and initiatives relevant to growing our customer base.

For this opportunity, we are aiming to hire within the C0-D level range of compensation that includes salary, equity, amazing benefits & perks.

Please note that this role does not include a commission component (shocking, we know) and will require you to get your LLQP license for all of Canada (including Quebec).

Your main responsibilities will include:

• Work directly with the Canada GM to achieve our ambitious targets in Canada

• Build, refine and extend our understandings of our buyer personas

• Create lead lists, prospect using cold emails & calls, hold demo calls and close deals with our target customers

• Manage and extend our CRM to ensure quality reporting & data standards
