Account Executive - Healthcare na MPF Federal

Description

Overview

MPF Federal is seeking a senior Account Executive to lead capture and growth across our Healthcare portfolio, spanning government health agencies and commercial health systems. This is a hunter role with full P&L visibility; the Account Executive owns pipeline, capture strategy, and talent mobilization end-to-end, translating market intelligence into signed contracts and staffed delivery teams. As a member of the Business Development organization, this individual operates as a one-person capture-to-staffing engine, closing the historical gap between "contract awarded" and "billable headcount on day one."

This position requires a candidate who has already run healthcare capture independently and has the recruiting literacy to source, qualify, and close key personnel against their own opportunities. The selected individual will carry a revenue target, exercise decision authority on bid/no-bid calls within agreed thresholds and operate with minimal supervision.

COMPENSATION: Starting at $140k per year

• Talent Mobilization & Full-Cycle Recruiting:
• Sources, screens, and closes key personnel against live and anticipated opportunities, including clinical, scientific, clearance-required, and executive-level roles, without waiting for handoff to a recruiting queue.
• Owns candidate experience from first contact through offer acceptance.
• Partners with the Talent Strategy team to translate capture-phase labor categories into validated candidate slates that survive evaluation and audit.
• Proposal & Delivery Hand-Off:
• Serves as the capture voice in team reviews; ensures win themes, discriminators, and staffing narratives are defensible and priced accurately.
