Aligned with a team of CIGNA Healthcare Sales Professionals, the DSE is positioned as the market leader for the dental product. Overall responsibilities are broadly defined in the categories of market strategy, new business development, client retention, training/coaching and product expertise.

Key factors for success include a strong sales orientation, a powerful inclination to influence the actions and results of others, superior personal credibility and demonstrated expertise in the delivery of CIGNA's dental products. In driving market success, the DSE must possess and capitalize on an enduring capacity to understand, assimilate and effectively promulgate complicated product features and advantages to peers.

In most instances, the DSE operates quite independently, with only broad management direction from local sales management and with limited coaching and counseling from the Dental organization.

  • In consultation with aligned CIGNA Healthcare Client Managers, develop and execute on a comprehensive Dental Y upsell strategy
  • Build collaborative partnerships by actively participating in local market management discussions (e.g., growth calls, local strategy development meetings, etc.)
  • Understand competitive and market-level dynamics and implications; independently recognize those that must be brought back to Dental Senior Management Team

Client Management Key Responsibilities

  • Meet or exceed persistency goals for assigned territory
  • By assimilating output from multiple operating systems, provide consultative support to our customers utilizing Dental Benefit Insight Reporting Tools
  • Drive successful retention and growth of existing Book of Business; as needed provide proactive and consultative dental subject matter expertise on large and/or "at risk" cases within aligned market geography
  • Offer support to CIGNA Healthcare Client Managers in the face of client-facing service challenges; intervene with Underwriting to ensure competitiveness; delineate network strategies (as required) and ensure attainment of goals

Training/Coaching Key Responsibilities

  • Maintain all-encompassing knowledge and proficiency in CIGNA Dental's products and capabilities; accomplish this through attendance and active participation in ongoing monthly dental information sessions, monthly dental operating results reviews, training programs, etc.
  • Maintain a tight connection between the CIGNA Dental Organization and the aligned CIGNA Healthcare Regional sales team; promulgate the Value Proposition, emerging competitive information, and any other new information which helps to drive sales and reinforces partnership
  • Ensure 100% satisfaction of local Market management in terms of ability of sales team to understand effectively deliver Dental Value Proposition
