About the Job

Role: Junior Sales Associate

Compensation: $80,000 Base Salary + Bonus

Location: Remote (United States only; requires travel for in-person events)

Company Overview: LearnHealth

LearnHealth is a leading continuing medical education (CME) company specializing in integrative medicine, with a current focus on dermatology.

Our mission is to leverage the best of Western science and Eastern tradition to create an interdisciplinary, evidence-based approach to patient care that is accessible to all practitioners.
