About the Role

Are you a scientist who enjoys communication, problem-solving, and working with people as much as discovery? We’re seeking a highly motivated Technical Sales Specialist with a strong background in physiology, neuroscience or cardiovascular research to join our clients growing commercial team.

In this role, you’ll bridge the gap between cutting‑edge scientific research and innovative product solutions—helping laboratories and research institutions find the right tools to advance their science.

Key Responsibilities

• Serve as a technical expert for our portfolio of life sciences research solutions.
• Build and maintain relationships with academic research customers.
• Understand customer research needs and provide tailored product recommendations.
• Conduct technical demonstrations, training sessions, and seminars (on‑site and online).
• Collaborate with marketing, product management, and R&D to communicate customer feedback and identify new opportunities.
• Meet and exceed quarterly sales targets through strategic account management.

• PhD in Physiology, Neuroscience, Cardiovascular Research, or a closely related field.
• Excellent communication and presentation skills.
• Enthusiastic about science and motivated by helping others achieve their research goals.
• Ability to translate complex technical information into clear, customer‑focused solutions.
• Strong organizational skills and willingness to travel to customer sites and conferences.
• Previous experience in sales or customer‑facing roles (e.g., applications support, teaching, technical support) is an advantage, but not required—full training provided.

What We Offer

• Competitive salary plus performance‑based bonus.
• Comprehensive training and mentorship from experienced commercial and technical staff.
• Opportunities for career growth within a global life sciences organization.
• Flexible working environment with supportive, science‑driven culture.
• Chance to stay close to cutting‑edge research—without staying in the lab.
