Would you like to promote a new medicine to doctors, paramedics
and pharmacists?
As a sales representative, you would be travelling round
the country and making presentations to health care professionals
of your product. Have you the skills to communicate science,
seek feedback and promote your product? Does the idea of achieving
your sales targets and being at the ‘cutting edge’ of a business
sound attractive? As a sales representative you may become
involved in product strategy and marketing. You would bring
your knowledge of dealing with customers together with an
understanding of the needs of patients and the biological
profile of new medicines produced by your company. Your work
would determine how the medicine would be marketed, how much
it would cost and how sales, effectiveness and new market
opportunities would be monitored? You would have a keen interest
in business, economics and science.
You can enter such positions with a first degree. You would
receive training in sales and marketing techniques and you
might be motivated to seek a business qualification by part
time study.
