This role offers comprehensive training, a clear career path, and a structured route into medical device sales, with a focus on helping you succeed from day one.
About the Company:
Our client is more than just a medical device distributor-they prioritize building a supportive, positive work environment where team members are treated like family. They are committed to helping employees grow and thrive in their careers.
The Role:
As a Surgical Sales Specialist, you'll begin by supporting surgeons in theatre, becoming an expert in the company's range of advanced surgical devices. Your journey includes:
Shadowing and Training: Approximately 3 months of shadowing a senior team member, receiving 1-to-1 training, and attending overseas training with the manufacturers.
Product Expertise: Develop a deep understanding of top-tier surgical devices and how to support medical professionals in their use.
Gradual Transition to Sales: After 9-12 months, you will transition into a commercially focused role, mastering sales techniques and becoming a Territory Manager, with an emphasis on business development.
Highly Sought-After Candidates:
Candidates with backgrounds as physiotherapists or those with a qualification in anatomy and 3+ years of experience will be highly sought after for this position. Your deep understanding of the human body, hands-on healthcare experience, and familiarity with medical environments make you an ideal fit for this role, especially in supporting surgeons during procedures.
Highlights of the Role:

Comprehensive 1-to-1 Training: Enjoy tailored training and development from day one, ensuring your success in both the clinical and commercial aspects of the role.
Supportive Team Environment: Join a company that values your growth and provides a gradual, well-planned transition into medical device sales, avoiding the typical "sink or swim" approach.
