• Opening new customer relationships and developing opportunities from the ground up


• Building relationships with procurement, clinical, estates, medical engineering and senior stakeholders


• Generating, managing and converting a strong pipeline of new NHS opportunities


• Identifying upcoming NHS projects, tenders and investment programmes


• Taking opportunities from initial prospecting through to negotiation and contract award


• Developing new business through both direct NHS sales and distributor-led opportunities


• Working with distributors to identify, develop and convert new NHS accounts

THE PERSON

We're looking for someone who enjoys WINNING rather than simply managing.

You'll be proactive, commercially ambitious and comfortable creating opportunities from scratch. You'll have the confidence to approach new customers, build relationships at multiple levels and navigate complex NHS decision-making processes.

You'll also have the commercial judgement to recognise when a direct sales approach is appropriate and when a distributor can provide the strongest route into an NHS account.

This is an opportunity to take ownership of a defined Midlands territory, build a significant new-business pipeline and directly influence regional revenue growth.
