THE COMPANY: An exciting sales role has arisen within a division of this UK medical devices business. It would suit either an experienced medical sales candidate, a technical sales person or somebody with field sales experience and a technical degree. The role will involve identifying and winning new NHS tenders to be a partner of choice for refits and installations of theatre suites. Part of the role will involve working with architects, project engineers and contractors on the installations side as well as working with clinical directors and Procurement in hospitals. There is a small base of existing projects in pipeline but a huge opportunity to spread their presence across other clinical departments and to identify and win new tenders. This is a varied and technical field sales role so will involve daily travel and odd overnight stays. Reporting directly to the Sales Director, it will require an accountable professional sales person with good organisation, drive and self motivation. Typical customer touch points will be with Theatre Managers, Clinical Directors, Consultants, Procurement and EBME staff as well as Engineers, Project Managers and some Architects.
THE CULTURE: With a heritage of nearly 70 years in the UK medical devices market, this UK manufacturer offers a complete theatre package and infrastructure solution to the NHS and private hospitals. A recent acquisition by a European medical group means they will strengthen their offering in 2025 and grow their manufacturing capabilities in the UK. They offer a structured training and induction process and look for driven clinical sales professionals.
THE ROLE: The role will involve a mix of sales, presenting solutions and well as working on tenders, trial and longer term projects. You will work receive full training but an appreciation or technical sales would be a benefit. Daily contact with the wider team is encouraged as collaboration with other divisions will grow sales in this business unit.
