Are you looking for your first, or next, opportunity to work in the pharmaceutical industry? But worried you don’t have sales experience? 


We’re recruiting for maternity cover for the position of Territory Manager in the South-West of England, and we’re searching for the right colleague to support our customers and drive business forward during this period. 


You’ll be joining a supportive team, with others who have also diversified from clinical practice, with the opportunity to leverage your clinical knowledge, whilst also gaining commercial experience.


As a Territory Manager within our Pet team, your role will be to grow sales through business partnership, account management, and implementation of brand strategies to identified customers. 

The successful candidate will be driven, passionate and able to build and nurture strong relationships with key external stakeholders, whilst also working collaboratively with internal support functions to determine which resources best fit customer and/or circumstances. 

The candidate should be capable of having both strategic business and clinical discussions with the customer. This role is predominately based on face-to-face customer interactions, and there will be an element of virtual interaction with customers, according to their preferences. 

The successful applicant would need to live on territory, which broadly covers Somerset, Devon and Cornwall. This is for a maternity cover on a fixed term contract up to 1 year or secondment opportunity.

  • Develop business relationships with key stakeholders to drive a high level of customer service and promote the company, its products and activities
  •  Identify new business opportunities by utilising data sources, and by monitoring territory market trends, competitor products and customer needs
  • Enhances customer experience by understanding preferences, utilising appropriate channels, with tailored journeys and compelling communication, to provide added value beyond the F2F experience
  • Salary range: £35,000 - £42,500 (relevant and robust experience can be considered for discussions outside of the salary range)
  • Field based role with some travel commitments to attend relevant business meetings/ training as well as external events such as trade shows on occasion.
