What You'll Do- Build your book of business. Actively prospect and grow your own portfolio of brokers, consultants and employer clients, and own it end to end.
- Be in the room. Attend benefits, HR and industry conferences and events across your territory, and turn those connections into meetings.

- Grow the broker channel. Build and deepen relationships with producers and benefits consultants at firms like Gallagher, Lockton, WTW, Marsh McLennan Agency, USI and OneDigital.

- Open new regions. Build Blair's presence in Texas and Illinois, then expand into neighbouring states where our clinicians are licensed, such as Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan and Indiana.
- Drive deals to close. Run broker-sourced opportunities from first meeting to signed agreement, partnering with our Oklahoma team on demos and proposals.
- Enable brokers. Equip partners with clear pricing, materials and talking points, and run joint events and HR roundtables with them.
