If you’re energized by meaningful conversations, thrive on building relationships, and want to sell solutions that directly impact compliance, quality, and patient safety — this is your opportunity.

Outreach & Engagement - Launch personalized cold calls, targeted email campaigns, and social selling strategies. Spark meaningful conversations that open doors.

Lead Qualification - Conduct discovery conversations to understand regulatory challenges and operational pain points. Navigate topics like GxP, 21 CFR Part 11, and Annex 11 with confidence. Apply qualification frameworks (BANT, CHAMP) to ensure strong opportunity fit.

Meeting Handoff - Schedule high-quality meetings and demos for Account Executives. Ensure seamless information transfer and context-rich handovers.

CRM Excellence - Maintain detailed records in CRM systems (e.g., Dynamics/Salesforce). Track progress, pipeline health, and reporting metrics.

Cross-Team Collaboration - Work closely with Sales and Marketing to refine messaging and optimize campaigns. Share valuable market insights from prospect interactions.

Hit (and Exceed) Targets - Meet monthly and quarterly quotas for qualified meetings and pipeline contribution.

What You Bring
  • 1–2+ years in sales, marketing, or business development (B2B software or life sciences preferred)
  • Exceptional communication skills — you can simplify complex technical and regulatory topics
  • Experience with CRM systems (Dynamics/Salesforce) and sales tools (Sales Navigator, engagement platforms)
  • Resilience, drive, and a results-focused mindset
  • Strong research, organization, and analytical abilities
  • Comfort working independently and within a fast-paced team
  • Creative thinking when overcoming objections

  • Experience selling regulated software or SaaS
  • Fluency in a European language
