About Carepay

CarePay Ltd (“CarePay”) is a fast-growing company with the ambition and ability to transform the healthcare sector in Africa through cloud based- and mobile technology. We are a mobile health exchange where digital payment streams and information are connected to medical data, thus improving quality of care, reducing cost of care and creating transparency and accountability. Our platform is currently being installed at more than 1500 healthcare providers throughout Kenya, and through it people are able to transfer, receive and pay with health related funds and benefits on their mobile phone.

Our mission is to Connect People to Quality Healthcare, first in Kenya, and then in the rest of Africa. We make our mission come alive through close partnerships with well-known companies such as Vodafone and Safaricom (Kenya’s largest mobile network operator and the company behind the world’s most successful mobile payment platform: M-PESA), and with some of the largest and most successful pharmaceutical companies in the world.

The Telesales Executive will be responsible for generating, closing leads, and supporting field staff in the sales process. CarePay’s key clients & stakeholders are split into 4 main groups:

1. ‍Participants: these are our clients who have been saving for healthcare on our platform.‍
2. Healthcare providers: we need to have as many solid and reputable healthcare providers on our platform as possible and engage with them on an ongoing basis.
3. ‍Institutional payers of healthcare: these are (inter)national health(re)insurance companies, health insurance brokers, and medium to large sized corporates.‍
4. Non-profit or public payers of healthcare: these are mainly the Ministry of Health, the county governments, the National Hospital Insurance Fund, public donor organizations (e.g., USAID, DFID, Global Fund, etc), and private donor organizations (e.g. the PharmAccess foundation, the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, the Pfizer Foundation).
