At TELUS Health, our ambition is bold — to be the most trusted wellbeing company in the world. We are redefining how organizations care for their people by combining digital innovation, clinical expertise, and a deep sense of social purpose. Our mission is to empower individuals, businesses, and communities to achieve their healthiest potential — physically, mentally, and emotionally — while creating a sustainable future for all.
Guided by our core values — passionately putting customers and communities first, embracing change and innovating courageously, and growing together through spirited teamwork — we are building one of the world’s most comprehensive wellbeing ecosystems. Our integrated solutions span Employee Assistance Programs, Total Mental Health, Virtual Care, and Wellbeing Services, connecting millions of Canadians to care that is personal, preventive, and accessible.
As a leader within TELUS Health, you will be part of a purpose-driven organization that measures success not only by business growth, but by the positive impact we create. Through our Health for Good initiatives, TELUS mobile health clinics and community partnerships deliver essential healthcare to underserved populations across Canada. Every advancement we make — from digital innovation to national partnerships — contributes to a healthier, more compassionate society.
At TELUS Health, we believe leadership is about impact. If you are motivated by purpose, inspired by transformation, and ready to shape the future of health and wellbeing in Canada and beyond, we invite you to lead with us.

As the Account Executive – Strategic Partnerships Leader, you will be responsible for driving growth through TELUS Health’s most strategic relationships with Canada’s leading life and health insurance carriers, with a primary focus on Quebec-headquartered organizations that operate nationally. This is a high-impact role, accountable for expanding TELUS Health’s market presence and revenue across all product lines — from Employee Assistance and Total Mental Health to Virtual Care and Wellbeing solutions.

You will act as the executive lead for these insurer partnerships, developing and executing a clear growth strategy that connects TELUS Health’s capabilities with the insurers’ business priorities. Working closely with product, distribution, and innovation teams at each carrier, you’ll identify opportunities to integrate TELUS Health programs into their group benefit portfolios — helping them meet the evolving health and wellness needs of plan sponsors and members while advancing their own commercial, retention, and digital health strategies.

Success in this role will come from your ability to influence at the executive level, build multi-stakeholder alignment, and create new pathways for growth. You’ll lead joint business planning, steer strategic initiatives, and ensure our partnerships deliver measurable results — including increased adoption, deeper product penetration, and sustained revenue expansion. By strengthening TELUS Health’s position as the preferred wellbeing partner for Canada’s insurers, you’ll directly contribute to our purpose of improving the health of every life we touch.
