Director of Marketplace
As Director of Marketplace, you will own the go-to-market and operating functions of NitraMart, overseeing sales, account management, vendor relationships, and marketplace operations. You'll be responsible for identifying opportunities to grow the business, improving how we serve customers and work with vendors, and building scalable processes as the marketplace expands.
This is a hands-on, cross-functional leadership role for someone who understands healthcare commerce and has experience building and scaling a business or function from the ground up. You'll work closely with leadership and our partnerships, product, and engineering teams to identify gaps, improve workflows, and move manual processes toward automation.
We're looking for an operator who can take ownership of a complex business, navigate ambiguity, and build the processes and team needed to support continued growth.
