Opportunity

The Opportunity
Legion is hiring a Provider Partnerships Leader to build one of the company’s most important growth engines: trusted referral relationships with primary care providers and other clinical partners who need a fast, high-quality psychiatry partner for their patients.

Responsibilities and Deliverables

• Build Legion’s provider referral engine from 0 to 1, then 1 to N.
  • Identify, prioritize, and win high-potential referral sources, including PCPs, pediatricians, OB/GYNs, therapists, urgent care clinics, health-system care teams, community clinics, and other behavioral health organizations.
  • Create territory and market launch plans: account targeting, outreach cadence, field visits, presentations, lunch-and-learns, events, and provider education.
  • Own referral growth metrics, including new referring accounts, active referral partners, monthly referral volume, referral-to-scheduled conversion, completed visits, partner retention, and provider satisfaction.
  • Build relationships with physicians, practice administrators, office managers, MAs, referral coordinators, care managers, and clinical leaders.
  • Make Legion easy to refer to by diagnosing and removing friction across eligibility, scheduling, documentation, insurance coverage, patient handoff, and follow-up communication.
  • Partner with clinical operations, product, marketing, intake, credentialing, and data teams to improve the referral experience end-to-end.
  • Build repeatable systems: CRM hygiene, account scoring, partner collateral, market dashboards, weekly reporting, referral attribution, and field-team training.
  • Collect market feedback from providers and turn it into better messaging, workflows, product improvements, and clinical operations.
• Hire, coach, and manage Provider Partnerships Managers / Physician Liaisons as the channel scales.

Qualifications

• 5+ years in healthcare business development, provider partnerships, physician liaison, clinical outreach, territory sales, or referral-growth roles.
• Strong preference for psychiatry, behavioral health, primary care, specialty care, outpatient imaging, physical therapy, home health, hospice, specialty pharmacy, GI, dermatology, women’s health, or other referral-driven care models.
• Proven track record of growing referral volume through direct provider relationships.
• Experience owning a market, region, or territory with concrete activity and performance metrics.
• Strong field-sales instincts: high activity, crisp follow-up, account prioritization, route planning, and comfort hearing “no.”
• Ability to build trust across physicians, office staff, administrators, referral coordinators, and executive stakeholders.
• Deep understanding of healthcare workflows: referrals, intake, scheduling, EHRs, fax, patient engagement, insurance coverage, and clinical handoffs.
• Comfortable using CRM, spreadsheets, dashboards, and referral data to manage performance.
• High judgment around compliance, HIPAA, patient privacy, and ethical referral practices.
• Low ego, high urgency, strong ownership.

Compensation & Benefits

• Salary: $100,000 – $210,000 base salary
• Significant Performance Bonuses: Meaningful variable compensation tied to referral growth and market launches
• Early-Stage Equity: Competitive
• Health Insurance: Medical, dental, and vision benefits
• Additional Perks: In-person retreats, meal stipends, travel reimbursement, provider engagement budget
• Time Off: Flexible, unlimited vacation policy
• Work Hours: Flexible
• Work Setup: Remote with frequent in-market travel
• Impact: Work on something that will change health care forever.
• Autonomy and Learning: Ownership over your metrics with the freedom to set priorities, shape processes, and drive outcomes end-to-end.
