What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a revenue-owning business development role where I can apply my consultative pre-sales expertise and stakeholder management to drive client growth.

I lead end-to-end bid management and business development pursuits in U.S. healthcare payer accounts, coordinating commercial leads, delivery heads, and service line SMEs to deliver on-time, quality RFP/RFI/RFQ responses. I’m known for translating client pain points into structured solution briefs and executive-level proposal narratives that hold up under tight submission windows.

I also drive AI adoption strategy across top payer accounts, capturing AI use cases and quantifying cost savings and productivity gains across functions in partnership with delivery stakeholders. To stay ahead of the market, I run competitive benchmarking and market landscaping across health tech and AI startups and turn those insights into pursuit and partnership roadmaps.

In addition, I support client-facing account reviews by consolidating delivery inputs into structured business review decks for senior leadership. Earlier, I expanded B2B relationships across 320+ UAE healthcare clinics and helped shape a Saudi Arabia go-to-market entry plan through PESTLE analysis and competitive benchmarking.
