Permanent position with comprehensive benefits

The Company

Our client is an established global medical device organisation specialising in advanced medical technologies, therapies and services designed to improve patient outcomes. With a strong presence in renal care, the business works closely with healthcare professionals to enhance clinical practice, support treatment pathways and improve the patient experience.

As the organisation continues to develop its presence across the Irish market, it is looking to appoint a Clinical Therapy Specialist to support renal teams across Munster and Connaught

This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced dialysis nurse to move into a specialist industry role, combining clinical expertise, education and relationship management within a progressive healthcare environment.

The Role

Working closely with Account Managers and cross-functional colleagues, you will act as a trusted clinical resource for renal teams across your territory. Your primary focus will be on delivering high-quality clinical education, promoting best practice in peritoneal dialysis (PD) and supporting the appropriate use and optimisation of therapies.

You will work directly with renal clinicians, PD nurses and multidisciplinary teams, helping them make informed treatment decisions and improve patient pathways through evidence-based education and ongoing clinical support.

Key responsibilities will include:

• Clinical education and training: Deliver structured clinical education on peritoneal dialysis therapies, products and services through onsite and virtual training sessions.
• Therapy optimisation: Support renal teams in promoting appropriate therapy choices, shared decision-making and effective patient pathways.
• Clinical stakeholder engagement: Build trusted relationships with renal clinicians, PD nurses and healthcare teams across hospitals and renal units.
• Quality improvement: Work collaboratively with clinical teams to identify opportunities to enhance patient care, clinical practice and operational efficiency.
• Product and therapy support: Provide clinical expertise to support the implementation and appropriate use of therapies, addressing questions and helping resolve customer concerns.
• Commercial collaboration: Partner with Account Managers to support regional business objectives, customer engagement and strategic initiatives.
• Clinical resources: Contribute to educational materials, product guides, marketing initiatives and peer-to-peer learning opportunities.
• Territory management: Plan and prioritise your activities independently, maintain accurate CRM records and ensure regular engagement with key clinical stakeholders.

Although this is not a traditional direct sales position, you will work closely with commercial colleagues and contribute to wider business objectives. The ability to balance clinical credibility with commercial awareness is therefore important.

This role offers the opportunity to build a career beyond frontline nursing while continuing to make a meaningful contribution to patient care and clinical practice.

The Person

We are keen to speak with clinically credible nursing professionals who enjoy educating others, building relationships and working autonomously in a field-based environment.

Ideally, you will have:

• A recognised nursing qualification and experience within dialysis or renal care, with peritoneal dialysis experience particularly desirable.
• ICU nursing experience
• Strong clinical knowledge and the confidence to engage with specialist healthcare professionals.

Excellent communication, relationship-building and stakeholder management skills.

The ability to work independently, manage a varied territory and prioritise competing demands.

Commercial awareness and an interest in understanding how clinical expertise supports wider business objectives.

A full, valid driving licence and willingness to travel throughout the assigned territory.

Essential: You must have you own vehicle (generous car allowance provided)

Candidates looking to transition from a hospital-based nursing role into the medical device industry are encouraged to apply. Experience in a clinical specialist, therapy support or medical device role would also be advantageous.

The Package

• Base salary: Depending on experience.
• Bonus: Excellent Annual performance-related bonus.
• Pension: Company pension scheme.
• Healthcare: Private medical insurance for you and dependents.
• Travel: Generous Car allowance (must have own car)
• Equipment: Company laptop and mobile phone.
• Additional benefits: Comprehensive benefits package and performance recognition.

Why Consider This Opportunity?

If you are an experienced dialysis nurse looking to move away from a purely bedside-based role, this is an opportunity to apply your clinical expertise in a more autonomous, field-based position.

You will work alongside renal specialists, develop your clinical education and stakeholder management skills, and contribute to improved therapy delivery and patient outcomes across the region, while building valuable experience within the medical device industry.
