This is a unique opportunity for someone looking to break into medical sales and gain hands-on experience in a highly regarded, clinical field.

This is a field-based role with regular travel across the region. You will be given full product training and continuous development support to help you progress toward a full sales territory role.

Candidate Profile:

We’re looking for someone commercially minded, confident, and eager to develop within a technical and clinical sales environment. You may have a background in life sciences, healthcare, sport science or a related field, but above all, you should be highly motivated and professional in your approach.

The ideal candidate will:

• Communicate clearly and confidently with both clinical and commercial stakeholders
• Be comfortable working in hospital environments
• Be organised, reliable, and able to manage multiple priorities
• Show initiative, resilience, and a strong desire to grow professionally
• Hold a valid UK driving licence and be open to regular travel across the region

What’s on Offer:

• Full training programme and ongoing mentoring
• Competitive base salary with performance-related commission
• Opportunity to work with leading surgical technologies that have real clinical impact
• Clear path for progression into a full sales territory role

This is an outstanding opportunity for someone looking to begin a long-term career in medical sales. If you’re looking to join a business where you can make a real difference and grow your commercial career in a professional and supportive environment.
