- Collaborate cross-functionally with Marketing, Medical Affairs, Screening Advocates, Sales Operations, and Area Managers to implement customer-specific strategies.
- Accurately document customer interactions, sales activities, and market intelligence in CRM while upholding the highest ethical, quality, and compliance standards.
### Who We're Looking For

- Two years of sales, inside sales, or account management experience **OR** one year of sales experience plus one year of healthcare-related experience **OR** completion of active-duty military service as a Junior Officer or above.
- Strong communication, presentation, and interpersonal skills with the ability to build credibility and influence customers.
- Excellent organizational, time management, and relationship-building skills.

• *Preferred Qualifications**

- Strong analytical and consultative selling skills in a fast-paced environment.
