Manager, Mid-Market and Group Sales; West Market) Remote

The Manager, Mid-Market and Small Group Sales (West) reports to the Senior Director, Mid-Market and Small Group Sales and is the front-line leader for the West region team, which spans both Mid-Market sales executives and Small Group representatives. This is a new role at Inspira, created to put dedicated coaching and development between the Senior Director and the field. The role exists to make sellers better - through deal coaching, pipeline discipline, structured development, and fast, honest feedback - and is accountable for the West region’s new business number as the aggregate of the team’s results across both segments rather than through a personal book.

This role and its East counterpart are mirror positions, each owning both Mid-Market and Small Group coverage within their own region. The strongest performers in this seat are the bench for future senior sales leadership at Inspira.

• Coaches the West region team, across both Mid-Market and Small Group sellers, through weekly one-on-ones, deal strategy sessions, call and meeting coaching, and pipeline reviews
• Adapts coaching approach to the seller type - Small Group representatives run higher-velocity, more transactional cycles, while Mid-Market sales executives run longer, broker-influenced, multi-stakeholder cycles
• Helps the team build and refine outreach cadences across both segments
• Owns onboarding, ramp, and time-to-first-sale for new sellers in both segments, in partnership with Sales Enablement
• Drives adoption of sales plays, messaging, and AI-assisted selling tools in live selling, not just in training

• Owns the West region’s combined Mid-Market and Small Group new business target as the aggregate of team quotas, and delivers accurate weekly and monthly forecasts for both segments
• Inspects and progresses deals, and attends key prospect, broker, and finalist meetings in a coaching capacity rather than as the primary seller
• Sets and holds regional activity standards, prospecting expectations, and CRM hygiene across Inspira’s Salesforce environments
• Escalates deal-level risk and resourcing needs early rather than at close

• Supports regional broker and consultant relationships in coordination with the Head of Broker & Consulting Relations
• Attends local and national events alongside sellers on the team to grow Inspira’s footprint in the market
• Provides field intelligence on competitive activity, pricing pressure, and product gaps across both Mid-Market and Small Group
• Contributes to the rollout of the Small Group inside-sales motion in the region
• Other duties as assigned.

• Manages a combined West region team of Mid-Market sales executives and Small Group representatives; team size varies with coverage and segment mix (typically 10-12 direct reports)
• Is hands-on and credible as a coach; sellers should be able to point to specific things they do better because of this leader
• Provides timely, specific feedback and builds development plans grounded in observed selling behavior, not results alone
• Addresses underperformance early and directly, in partnership with the Senior Director and HR
• Participates in recruiting, interviewing, hiring, and onboarding for the region across both segments
