Head Of Partnerships

This role is NYC-based, but we will consider remote applicants. Requires regular domestic travel.

Sage is on a mission to improve care and quality of life for older adults, starting with those residing in senior living facilities. Falls are the leading cause of injury-related death among adults over 65. And yet, fall prevention and emergency response systems for older adults are archaic and ineffective. At Sage we've built a more modern way of understanding when older adults need help, including methods for residents to alert caregivers when in need of help, and corresponding software for caregivers to triage response.

Our company is actively searching for a Head Of Partnerships leader to work with our existing and future partners.
