We are seeking a VP of Sales to lead direct-to-pharma business development and grow a pipeline of net-new pharmaceutical brand clients.

Key Responsibilities
- Identify and lead all growth opportunities within key domestic pharma and biotech clients
- Employ a consultative selling approach to uncover unmet needs and map them to platform solutions including sponsored content, HCP-targeted media, data analytics, and omnichannel engagement programs
- Own the full pitch process, coordinating across sales, data, strategy, product, and editorial/content teams
- Bring a publisher-side perspective to client conversations — articulating the value of owned HCP audience reach, content formats, and engagement data
- Build and continuously expand a direct-to-pharma pipeline, targeting brand directors, medical affairs leads, omnichannel teams, and marketing VPs
- Lead thought leadership on how to best position evolving platform capabilities to the pharma market
- Attend key industry events (e.g. DTC National, PMCF, ePharma) to network, develop leads, and promote platform capabilities

- Proven track record closing net-new logos with pharma brand teams, especially in HCP engagement, omnichannel campaigns, data analytics, or modular content
- Hybrid background spanning media/publishing, agency, martech, or data — fluent in both commercial/brand language and clinical/medical context
- Familiarity with performance-based media metrics: HCP reach, engagement rates, Rx lift, behavior change indicators, and campaign ROI
- Strong pipeline forecasting and account management discipline
- Salesforce experience preferred
- Excellent presentation, written, and interpersonal communication skills
