POSTED

Invenia Search has partnered with a privately held, science-led life sciences company, known globally for high-quality reagents and kits, to hire a field-based Senior Account Manager for its San Francisco territory.

The company is owned and run by active research scientists. It is not driven by quarterly shareholder pressure, the culture is collaborative and low-ego, and customers already trust the brand before you walk in.

Role Responsibilities:

You will own and grow an established territory of around 100 pharma and biotech accounts – real run-rate business with clear room to grow, not a from-scratch build or a maintenance seat.

  • Own and grow around 100 established pharma and biotech discovery accounts across the Bay Area, tiered by spend

  • Deepen relationships in the territory's anchor accounts, widening product adoption

  • Spend at least three days a week in the field, running new product introductions, lunch and learns and account mapping

  • Manage high-volume, run-rate reagent business alongside larger opportunities, forecasting accurately and keeping your Salesforce pipeline up to date

  • Act as a credible, technical partner to lab leadership, scientists and procurement

What We Are Looking For:

We are looking for an experienced reagent sales professional with a hunter mentality and an active network in Bay Area pharma and biotech.

  • 5+ years of field reagent sales in life sciences, with experience owning a territory (capital equipment-only or pure BD backgrounds are not a fit)

  • A current, active network in Bay Area pharma and biotech, with named accounts you can speak to

  • Comfort spending time out with customers rather than selling from behind a screen

  • The discipline to manage 20 to 30 live customer conversations at once, with strong follow-up

  • A life sciences degree and proficiency with Salesforce

  • Antibody application experience and any gene or cell therapy exposure are a plus

  • The right to work in the US

Sound Interesting? If you are looking to grow your career with a science-led company where the product sells itself, we would like to hear from you. The package includes a competitive base salary, commission from dollar one paid quarterly with accelerators above 90% of plan, a company car allowance and full US benefits, including 90% medical and dental cover, a 401(k) with 6% match, tuition reimbursement, generous PTO and parental leave.

Apply today.
