THE OPPORTUNITY
Science in your veins. Sales in your DNA. Ready to make both count?
This is a rare one…
A well-established, respected supplier of high-quality life science reagents who are trusted by IVD manufacturers, biotech companies and academic researchers alike; is looking for a sharp, driven Internal Sales Executive to join their team in the Buckinghamshire countryside.
You won't be flogging widgets…
You'll be having real conversations with scientists and procurement teams about products that matter — reagents that end up in diagnostics kits, research workflows and next-generation biotech platforms. This is sales with substance.
WHAT YOU'LL ACTUALLY BE DOING
* Proactively hunting new business — picking up the phone, firing off smart outreach, working
* every channel available to you
* Partnering with the Marketing and Key Accounts teams to build targeted campaigns and
* convert pipeline into real revenue
* Building a book of business across IVD manufacturers, biotech’s and academic research
* groups
* Managing leads, following up relentlessly and turning interest into orders
* Staying sharp on the market — knowing the products, the customers and the competitive
* landscape
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
Science-literate: Degree or hands-on lab background in life sciences
Phone-first: Not afraid to dial - comfortable starting conversations cold
Hunter mentality: You don't wait for leads to land in your lap
Resilient: A 'no' is data, not a dead end - you bounce back fast
Multi-channel: Phone, Email, LinkedIn, CRM - you use them all smartly
Team player: Collaborative with sales, marketing and key accounts
THE IDEAL BACKGROUND
You've come from a sales, business development or lead generation role — ideally within life
sciences, diagnostics or a related technical field.
You might be a scientist who discovered you're wired for the commercial side, or a sales professional who gets genuinely excited by science.
Either works. What doesn't work is someone who waits for the world to come to them.
Given the rural Buckinghamshire setting, having your own car and being comfortable
commuting to the office is a real practical advantage here.
