    THE MISSION

    Assured Quality Homecare is building one brand, one story and one dominant position in aging-in-place services across Connecticut and Rhode Island.

    This role exists for one reason:

    To drive sustained census growth by owning referral relationships, controlling the market narrative and converting trust into revenue.

    This is not a junior outreach role. This is not an event coordinator. This is not a marketing generalist.

    This is a senior, field-driven revenue leadership role for a proven healthcare rainmaker.

    WHO THIS ROLE IS FOR

    This role is for a battle-tested healthcare sales professional who:

    • Has a deep, active referral network (case managers, discharge planners, ALFs, physicians, SNFs) • Knows how to walk into hospitals and decision-maker offices uninvited • Understands how census actually grows (not how it’s talked about) • Can clearly articulate value, differentiation, and urgency • Has personally carried a number and hit it • Thrives in accountability, autonomy, and pressure

    ROLE OVERVIEW

    The Director of Growth & Strategic Referrals owns external growth for Assured Quality Homecare.

    You will: • Own census growth targets • Control and deepen referral pipelines • Represent ONE brand and ONE message in the market • Translate relationships into signed clients and retained revenue

    This role is 90% field-based.

    CORE ACCOUNTABILITIES (WHAT YOU WILL BE MEASURED ON)

    You are directly accountable for:

    1. Census Growth • Net new client admissions per month • Conversion rates from referral to start of care • Retention quality (right clients, not bad-fit volume)

    2. Referral Pipeline Ownership • Build, expand, and defend high-value referral relationships • Hospitals, SNFs, ALFs, physician practices, social workers, discharge planners • Become the default call in your territory

    3. Market Positioning • Clearly articulate ASQ’s differentiated value: • Comprehensive aging-in-place platform • Clinical + non-medical integration • Dementia-friendly and high-acuity expertise • Eliminate confusion. One story. One promise.

    4. Strategic Territory Execution • Own a defined territory and penetration strategy • Identify top 25–50 referral accounts and dominate them • Execute with discipline, cadence, and follow-through

    5. Revenue Intelligence • Track referral activity, conversion, velocity, and outcomes • Provide clear market feedback to leadership • Adjust tactics based on data — not opinions

    REQUIRED EXPERIENCE (NON-NEGOTIABLE)

    • 7+ years healthcare business development, referral sales, or census-driven growth • Proven success selling:

    Homecare

    REQUIRED SKILLS

    • Closing ability — not just relationship building • Executive presence — credibility with clinicians and administrators • Territory strategy — you know where to spend time and where not to • Direct communication — clarity without apology • Data discipline — you track what matters • Resilience — rejection doesn’t slow you down
