This is an excellent opportunity for an early-career professional or recent graduate who wants to start and develop a career in medical devices, orthopaedics and healthcare.

Purpose of the Role

The Clinical Support Specialist will work closely with the Trauma sales team, healthcare professionals and hospital teams, developing the knowledge and capabilities required to provide high-quality clinical and procedural support for DePuy Synthes Trauma solutions. The role combines clinical learning, operating room exposure, customer interaction, teamwork and disciplined execution, providing a strong foundation for a long-term career within DePuy Synthes and Johnson & Johnson MedTech.

Build progressively deeper knowledge of orthopaedic trauma, surgical procedures and the DePuy Synthes Trauma portfolio through structured learning, field experience and interaction with experienced colleagues and healthcare professionals.

Candidate Profile & Requirements

We are looking for a high-potential, curious and customer-focused professional with the maturity to operate in demanding hospital environments and the ambition to build a long-term career in orthopaedics and medical devices. Previous Trauma experience is not essential. Technical expertise can be developed. Attitude, learning agility and interpersonal capabilities are fundamental. The ideal candidate demonstrates emotional maturity, customer orientation, relationship-building capability, disciplined execution, curiosity and a genuine desire to learn and develop.
