The Role

This is a true hunter role.

You will be responsible for:

• Our certifications & training are already used by 1000+ top pharma companies globally

• Have relationships in field reimbursement, medical affairs or MSL leadership
• Have sold SaaS, training, or consulting solutions
• Understand where AI is going in pharma

Who This Is NOT For

• Account managers who rely on inbound leads
• People who have “supported” deals but never owned them
• Anyone without direct experience selling into pharma

Key Responsibilities

• Own and drive new business development across pharmaceutical and biotech companies
• Identify, prospect, and close enterprise-level deals (training, certification, and AI solutions)
• Build relationships with key stakeholders including:
• Medical Affairs Leaders
• Commercial, Field Reimbursement & Market Access Teams
• Collaborate with marketing and leadership to refine messaging and go-to-market strategy
• Maintain accurate pipeline forecasting and consistently exceed revenue targets

What We’re Looking For

Required:

• 5+ years of B2B enterprise sales experience
• Direct experience selling into pharmaceutical or biotech companies
• Proven track record of closing new business (hunter mentality)
• Demonstrated success hitting or exceeding $1M+ annual quotas
• Strong network within life sciences / pharma organizations
• Ability to navigate complex, multi‑stakeholder sales cycles

What Success Looks Like

• Rapid ramp‑up of pipeline within first 60 days
• Consistent closing of new pharmaceutical accounts
• Expansion of ACMA’s footprint across top 25 pharma companies
• Strong contribution to ACMA’s B2B revenue growth targets
• Consistently willing to learn and level‑up
• Competitive base salary + commission
• Competitive health, dental, and vision coverage
• Generous paid time off
• Hybrid flexibility (NJ‑based preferred)
• Direct access to executive leadership and strategic decision‑making
• Opportunity to sell into top pharmaceutical companies and build high‑value relationships
• Be part of a company shaping the future of medical affairs and AI in pharma
• Performance‑driven culture with clear upside for top performers

Location
