Senior Sales Executive

Invenia Search has partnered with an established European IVD company to hire a Senior Sales Executive as the first dedicated US commercial hire for its genetics portfolio. The company's lead molecular diagnostics products are progressing through FDA submission, so you will enter the market with a compliant, differentiated offering – in several segments, with no comparable approved alternative.

The role reports to an existing Senior Manager. An East Coast location is preferred for time-zone alignment with the European team, but strong candidates elsewhere in the US who are willing to travel will be considered.

Role Responsibilities:

You will own the launch and growth of the US genetics business, with a strong focus on oncology, combining commercial drive with the scientific depth to engage credibly with clinical stakeholders.

• Grow the US genetics business, starting with the molecular diagnostics rollout

• Build a customer base across clinical laboratories, hospitals, reference labs, oncology centres and genetics providers

• Run consistent prospecting and manage the full sales cycle, from lead generation and CRM through to negotiation, closing and follow-up

• Position solutions credibly with scientific and clinical stakeholders

• Represent the company at key conferences and build relationships with decision-makers and early adopters

• Gather market intelligence from the field to inform portfolio and commercial strategy

What We Are Looking For:

We are looking for a diagnostics sales professional with a track record of opening new accounts in US laboratories.

• Bachelor's degree in Business, Life Sciences or a related field

• 3 to 6 years in US diagnostics or healthcare sales and business development

• Proven success selling into US laboratories, with a strong understanding of lab workflows and validation processes

• A solid grasp of US reimbursement and purchasing processes; familiarity with LDTs in reference labs is an advantage

• A track record of opening new accounts and building a pipeline in clinical reference labs, oncology and genetics

• A resilient, self-directed approach and excellent communication skills

Sound Interesting? If you are looking to grow your career as the first commercial hire for a proven European technology, with real scope to grow alongside the business you build, we would like to hear from you.
