About Upside:

Upside is a housing-focused care partner helping people experiencing housing instability take the next step toward stability. We partner with health plans and care organizations to identify members at risk, build a clear housing plan, and drive the work forward through placement and stabilization.

Upside owns the entire housing process from start to finish. Our team engages members, coordinates with local providers and community resources, manages logistics and documentation, and stays involved until the issue is resolved. Our approach is human-first and outcome-driven, measured by real results like stable housing, completed moves, safer living environments, and successful transitions.

Our Values:

At Upside, our values shape how we work, how we make decisions, and how we show up for our members, partners, and each other.

  • Compassion: Lead with empathy, meet people where they are, and approach our work with care.

  • Ambition: Think bigger than today, move with urgency, and challenge ourselves to solve hard problems.

  • Respect: Communicate openly, act with integrity, and assume positive intent.

  • Excellence: Good enough isn’t good enough. Take ownership and deliver outcomes that exceed expectations.

 

About the Opportunity:

Upside is looking for a Mid-Market Account Executive to drive new business across self-insured employers, selling our housing stability solution as a differentiated employee benefit.

This is a highly driven, execution-focused sales role for someone who is energized by building pipelines and winning new business. You’ll help employers understand how housing instability impacts retention, productivity, and workforce stability while positioning Upside as a point solution that fills a gap within the broader employee benefits ecosystem.
