Senior Care Partnerships and Growth Advisor

Business Development Advisor

Home Instead – Columbia, MO

Salary: $65,000–$70,000 + performance bonuses

Schedule: Monday–Friday | 8:00 AM–4:30 PM

Tired of Seeing Gaps in Senior Care — and Want to Do Something About It?

If you’ve worked in healthcare or senior living, you’ve likely seen it:

Families struggling to navigate options

Partners trying to solve complex situations with limited resources

Older adults who deserve better support than the system can provide

At Home Instead Columbia, this role gives you the opportunity to step out of the constraints of traditional care settings and become a connector, problem-solver, and trusted partner in your community.

We’re looking for a Business Development Advisor who is naturally curious, relationship-driven, and motivated by helping older adults access the long-term care they deserve.

Who This Role Is For

This role is ideal for professionals with experience in:

• 
  

  Home health or hospice outreach

  
  


• 
  

  Senior living or healthcare sales

  
  


• 
  

  Clinical roles with referral coordination exposure

  
  


• 
  

  Healthcare liaison or community relations roles

  
  

…but more importantly, someone who:

• 
  

  Asks thoughtful questions before offering solutions

  
  


• 
  

  Leans into complexity instead of avoiding it

  
  


• 
  

  Cares deeply about outcomes for older adults and their families

  
  

The Role

As the face of Home Instead in the Columbia market, you will build and manage relationships with referral partners who trust you to help solve real challenges for the older adults and families they serve.

This is a relationship-driven role with clear ownership and autonomy within a proven, consultative approach to growth.

You will:

• 
  

  Own and grow a defined territory

  
  


• 
  

  Build trust with key referral sources

  
  


• 
  

  Stay consistently engaged through thoughtful follow-up

  
  


• 
  

  Use a consultative, needs-based approach to understand partner challenges and align solutions

  
  


• 
  

  Connect families to care options that allow them to remain safely at home

  
  

Your work is not just about generating referrals — it’s about helping people find the right path forward.

What You’ll Do

• 
  

  Build and deepen relationships with hospitals, physicians, rehab centers, and senior care partners

  
  


• 
  

  Stay actively engaged in your territory with consistent, purposeful outreach

  
  


• 
  

  Ask strong questions, uncover needs, and position Home Instead as a trusted solution

  
  


• 
  

  Maintain a clear pipeline of relationships and next steps

  
  


• 
  

  Represent Home Instead at community events and partner meetings

  
  


• 
  

  Collaborate internally to ensure strong client onboarding and outcomes

  
  

What Success Looks Like

• 
  

  You are known and trusted by key partners in your market

  
  


• 
  

  You follow through consistently and build long-term relationships

  
  


• 
  

  You identify opportunities others overlook

  
  


• 
  

  You turn conversations into meaningful support for families

  
  


• 
  

  Your territory shows steady, sustainable growth over time

  
  

Who Thrives in This Role

You’ll be a strong fit if you:

• 
  

  Have experience in healthcare or senior care and understand how referrals work

  
  


• 
  

  Are naturally curious and ask better questions than most

  
  


• 
  

  Prefer a consultative sales approach over transactional selling

  
  


• 
  

  Are both relationship-driven and disciplined in your follow-through

  
  


• 
  

  Take ownership of your work without needing constant direction

  
  


• 
  

  Are comfortable working independently in the field

  
  


• 
  

  Care deeply about helping older adults receive the care they deserve

  
  

This role is best suited for someone who wants to build something meaningful over time — not chase quick wins.

What We Offer

• 
  

  Competitive base salary + performance incentives

  
  


• 
  

  Company vehicle or mileage reimbursement

  
  


• 
  

  Paid training and ongoing development

  
  


• 
  

  Supportive leadership and collaborative team culture

  
  


• 
  

  Autonomy in how you build relationships and execute within a proven system

  
  


• 
  

  Career growth opportunities within a growing organization
