About the position

Lyft's Healthcare & Community Access team is changing the way state Medicaid agencies, transportation brokers, and transit authorities think about non-emergency medical transportation (NEMT) and paratransit. We work with the largest NEMT brokers, state and federal healthcare agencies, and transit authorities in the country to improve access to care and essential services for the riders who need it most. Our work is fast-paced, cross-functional, and high-impact — and we are looking for passionate, hard-working, and customer-focused team members who want to tackle real transportation challenges and make a difference for the people who rely on these services most. As an Account Manager on Lyft's Healthcare & Community Access team, you're responsible for managing and growing a book of healthcare and transit partnerships. You'll develop trusted relationships with your partners, become a Lyft product expert, and learn to identify and prioritize the highest-impact opportunities across your accounts. You'll join a talented team focused on one thing: using technology and Lyft's network of drivers to improve transportation for patients, members, and transit riders.

  • Lead effective sales meetings with clear goals and defined next steps, qualifying opportunities with strong discovery and follow-through
  • Represent Lyft at healthcare, NEMT, and transit industry events and tradeshows
  • Assist with RFPs

Requirements

  • 3+ years of successful sales, business development, or account management experience, with a proven track record of growing accounts and hitting quota
  • Excellent written, verbal, and presentation skills — able to communicate clearly and adapt your message depending on the audience and situation
  • High levels of sales persistence, work ethic, and creativity; comfortable running discovery conversations, qualifying opportunities, and following through to close
  • Strong analytical curiosity — comfortable using data to understand account performance, identify trends, and surface opportunities
  • Ability to understand and absorb new information quickly, particularly in complex or technical product environments
  • Comfortable with change and ambiguity in a fast-moving environment; able to problem-solve and prioritize with limited direction
  • Team-oriented mindset and the ability to work effectively across a wide range of individuals and functions
  • Bachelor's degree required
