Salary: £50K OTE, Company Car
As a Sales Account Manager, you will play a crucial role in expanding the company's market presence in the North UK territory, selling products to academic and research institutions carrying out life science laboratory research.
A life science inside sales role requires a combination of technical knowledge, effective communication skills, a customer-focused approach, and the ability to adapt to the dynamic nature of the life sciences industry.

Full technical product and sales training will be provided for the successful candidate.
