• Build relationships with relevant industry associations and organizations (e.g., NASMHPD, National Council, NACo, Open Minds, others) to increase Bamboo Health’s visibility and thought leadership in the government behavioral health space
• Design and execute multi-channel campaigns targeting public-sector behavioral health stakeholders across email, LinkedIn, paid channels, and industry publications
• Support conference strategy and presence at key public sector and behavioral health events (e.g., SAMHSA forums, NatCon, state behavioral health summits)
• Collaborate with sales to develop nurture programs tailored to 12–24 month government procurement timelines and track performance against pipeline contribution goals
• Explore opportunities to enhance workflows through AI or automation tools (e.g., document summarization, task routing, or data parsing)
• Identify repetitive tasks and partner with team leads to implement scalable automation solutions

• Understanding of government procurement processes, RFPs, and long sales cycles
• Exceptional writing and storytelling skills, with the ability to translate complex topics into clear, compelling narratives for government audiences
• Experience working within or closely alongside a state behavioral health authority, county health department, CCBHC, or behavioral health managed care organization
• Knowledge of federal and state behavioral health policy (e.g., 1115 waivers, CCBHCs, PDMPs, mental health parity) and how policy changes affect government buyer priorities
• Demonstrated proficiency with AI tools applied to marketing processes including content generation, research synthesis, or performance analysis (e.g., Claude, ChatGPT, Copilot, or similar)
• Ability to critically evaluate AI outputs and apply sound editorial judgment when using AI for public-sector-facing content
